They are new, I emailed Waterloo and they confirmed it. Here is a thread I started about it: https://www.garagejournal.com/forum/threads/craftsman-griplatch-is-back.525688/ You actually posted in that thread...

They did bring back griplatch. It's the Edge series, but they aren't listed on their website. I found them at MSC and Amazon. I have a 26" cabinet, and had but sold a 41".

I don't know, posting in an online forum asking for help to extract a broken tap in some spaceship part... 🤔 Sure, it's possible.

I'm starting to think this is fake news...

Whatever you decide make sure you take your time and think it through.

Sure It depends on the tap, but we aren't talking about drilling through it. The left hand drill bit will try to dig in and bite whatever it can, and since it's spinning in reverse it will naturally back it out. If he can wiggle the tap, I'm betting a left hander will work. Just be sure to use...

You could also grind a slot at the tip of a punch that will fit into the flutes of your tap and unscrew it. Be careful you don't wind up with a bouquet of ********. Or take it to a machine shop and have them take a crack at it.

Squirt some lube in the hole and left hand it. Good adhesive can be just as strong as a weld at that small of a diameter. You might be able to squirt some lube into the hole, then fill it with epoxy + a handle of some sort. Wait for the epoxy to harden and just unscrew it.

I guess the consensus here is... There's more than one way to do it Don't over think it, if the tool fits use it.

When I was an HVAC tech the only tools I carried when I did a PM of an AC system was my Klien 11 in 1 and a ladder. It seems like the AC system manufacturers and Klien have an engineering relationship or something. There really isn't much on an AC system that an 11 in 1 can't handle.
