Critic, I'm not getting it..

Is the Powerbuilt 648002 model the type you whack with a mallet? From the pics of this tool online it looks like some type of chuck for a drill motor.

Like I say, I've yet to have an issue with my HFT special and I've had at some nasty rust-belt rotor screws. One or two whacks and they back right out. It doesn't even leave any visible marks to the Phillips head.

Yes that's the product. Maybe I just had a bad day.

How big was your hammer? I have similar tool and have played with it but my hammer weighed about the same that tool and I had similar problems like you did. However, I was only testing on random screws in pressure treated wood and I have no vice to hold the stuff in place.

Theoretically you would need a good whack with bigger hammer

3 lbs? Not sure, but it was quite a bit larger and heavier than your typical household hammer.
