lokbox screw won't come out

General Discussion
1

I have tried to find a solution to this and I can’t seem to find one.  I searched the forum and found that others had a similiar problem but the nut insert came out.  My problem is the nut in the lokbox fin box is spinning with the screw.  So I can turn the screw but it doesn’t back out or thread in, it just spins.  I have tried applying up pressure to screw as I unscrew and that doesn’t work either.

Anybody have secret to fix this?

 

Thanks,

Mark

I sent an email to Lokbox but no response yet.  Busy time of the year.

Hey Mark, we're playing phone tag and your "it". Try me again. Thanks Jim

so you are trying to get the screw out?  Try putting a drop of super glue on the tip of the hex head....glue it into place in the screw. Hopefully mission accomplished.  Just don't over glue, or you'll know what will happen.

It's a Lokbox screw not an FCS resinhead. But thanks lol :-)
