As far as we know, this method has been introduced on websites worldwide (including a major furniture retailer's site), so many of you may already be familiar with it. The technique involves placing a rubber band between the stripped screw and the screwdriver, turning the screwdriver counterclockwise to loosen the screw.
Many people have reported success using this method, and it seems to be effective in certain cases. We think the conditions for its effectiveness include: 1 The screw still has some a little bit remaining cross grooves, even if it's stripped. 2 The material where is used is not overly hard. The method is to increase the friction coefficient between the screwdriver and the screw by using a rubber band. If the resulting torque due to this increased friction is bigger than the loosening torque of the screw, it should be possible to remove it. Otherwise, it may not work. Therefore, this method may work well for situations like removing stripped screws in softer materials, such as furniture made of softwood. However, real-world scenarios often involve more challenging situations.
