HPC EZ5 Spiral Broken Key Extractor | .040 Stainless Steel Locksmith Tool

The HPC EZ5 is a professional-grade spiral broken key extractor designed for the rapid and safe removal of snapped key fragments from lock cylinders. This precision instrument is a vital solution for door restoration when a key has broken off flush or deep within the keyway, preventing the need for costly lock replacements. Engineered with a specialized "corkscrew" spiral tip, the EZ5 provides a mechanical advantage that standard hook picks cannot match, making it an essential solution for commercial door security emergencies.

Precision Engineering for Seamless Extraction

The HPC EZ5 is crafted to navigate tight keyway profiles where other tools fail. It acts as a proactive solution for door surface repair by protecting the internal pins and wafers from damage during the extraction process:

• High-Torque Spiral Tip: The .040 diameter stainless steel blade features a machine-twisted spiral that "screws" into the grooves or side-millings of a broken key. This creates a powerful mechanical grip that pulls the fragment out as the tool is twisted and retracted.
  
• Aggressive Brass Handle: The extractor features a solid, pressed-on brass handle designed for maximum tactile feedback. In stubborn cases, the sturdy handle allows locksmiths to apply additional leverage with vise-grips without bending the tool.
  
• Optimal Flex & Strength: Made from high-grade stainless steel, the blade is strong enough to pull jammed fragments yet flexible enough to bypass internal obstacles. It is specifically designed to fit the rounded grooves found in most common keyways.
• Non-Destructive Removal: By attacking the key fragment from its open side-grooves, the EZ5 ensures a clean removal that preserves the lock's integrity, avoiding the need for a total cylinder drill-out.
  

Professional Durability and Field Utility

Whether you are a facility manager or a professional locksmith, the HPC EZ5 is a streamlined solution for door restoration that ensures you are prepared for the most common lockout scenario:

• Compact Emergency Design: Its lightweight, 6-inch profile makes it an ideal addition to any service toolkit or emergency lockout bag.
  
• Cost-Effective Maintenance: Avoid the high labor costs associated with drilling and replacing commercial hardware. The EZ5 is a high-value solution for commercial door security that pays for itself in a single use.
• UL-Grade Hardware Compatible: Safe for use on high-security cylinders, including those secured with heavy-duty thru bolts, ensuring your facility's physical security remains intact after the repair.
• Made in the USA: Manufactured by HPC (Hudson Lock) to the highest industrial standards, ensuring the spiral teeth remain sharp and effective over hundreds of uses.
