  • In this video, I show you how to remove a stuck drill bit from a drill. It is actually a fairly simple process but you will likely have to use multiple steps before you actually get the drill bit unstuck from the chuck of the drill. I go over each and every step and tell you the order in which you should try the steps in order to effectively remove the bit from the drill chuck. With that being said, the first steps are usually the easiest and hopefully they work for you, but if not, you will have to progress to the more difficult steps and keep on working at it until you end up getting the drill bit out of the chuck.

    Just fished my power drill out of the recycling bin before the truck came (after trying different things for a week to open the chuck), followed your advice and - boom! - drill bit out in seconds with light tapping and drill works, there's nothing wrong with the chuck after all. Thanks for saving me the time and money of shopping for and buying a new power drill!

    You wonderful man!! Middle aged Brit woman here, who isn’t great at DIY at the best of times but I do my best. I was having to use the same drill bit for every job because I couldn’t get the bloody thing out of the drill. Trying to drill into masonry today and getting nowhere. Then I found your video … and it’s out!! Thank you so much ❤🇬🇧🇺🇸👍

    Been trying for years to free a stuck keyless chuck on an old craftsman drill/driver got from my late dad. Pulled it out again to try once again. After another hour of frustration, watched this video. Tapped the top of the chuck a few times as you demonstrated & it freed . Wow. Thanks

    Actually helped me out of a jam. My Ryobi had a stuck chuck along with stuck bit. Took all my grip strength (thanks workouts) and lots of cranking to finally get it to go. Fun fact, my Grandpa's old plug in Craftsman has never had a problem of any type, much less a stuck bit or chuck. Dont make em like they used to.

    After going through three or more videos found this one. It worked for me! My Ryobi drill check was really locked in The drill bit I ended up using a pipe wrench and a vice. I added WD-40 previously. I tapped turned then backed off tapped tried to turn again backed off. Since it was a pipe wrench I wanted to apply pressure gradually but to my surprise it was able to break free. Thought I was going to tear the drill apart :-) but it worked!
