Stripped Screw on Lenovo Ideapad Heatsink Mount

Stripped Screw on Lenovo Ideapad Heatsink Mount

The Problem

A customer was attempting to change the thermal paste on a relative’s Lenovo Ideapad laptop. However, one of the screws securing the heatsink mount had become stripped and was seized, causing significant frustration. Despite trying multiple methods to remove the screw, none of the conventional techniques worked, and the customer was close to resorting to drilling the screw out — a risky approach that could damage the threading of the screw hole. 

The Solution

After searching for solutions online, the customer came across the 5″ Mini Screw Removal Pliers | VT-001-5 and decided to give them a try. Upon using the pliers, the customer was amazed at how well the VT-001-5 gripped the 1mm thin stripped screw, allowing them to remove it without causing any further damage.
