An Easy-out is
made of hardened steel with a taper twist drill screw....made to extract broken
bolts as it grabs harder when turned for removal.
Wouldn't think
they would have used 2 Allen screws back to back. Drilling and re-tapping
is not a hard job.

What is an
Easy-out? My understanding is that there are two allens back to back, so
can’t turn them in.

Can you turn them in to
come out the ID?
How about an "Easy-out"
?
You may have to drill them
out using a slightly smaller diameter drill and then an Easy-out or drill and
re-tap the hole.

flange!
I have a loose wheel flange on an
E-20 tractor that walks in-an-out on the axel. I have tried everything
that I could think of to loosen the allen screws, in order to remove the
flange. The screws won't budge and I am afraid of rounding the
heads. I managed to pull the flange off the axel with a wheel flange
remover tool, but ended up scoring the axel in the process. I have the
flange off, but still am at a lose on backing the allens out. I have tried
a torch to the flange, but still have the screws bound tight. Anybody have
another method of attack for this?
