Jonard Tools EX-2 IC Extraction Tool for Chip with 24-40 Pin

5th November 2025 This IC Extractor worked an absolute treat, I removed the IC EPROMs in seconds with this tool. 5 stars for workmanship and cost effectiveness.

Makes chip removal so easy, highly recommended.

Very disappointed with this. In the photos it looks like a good quality metal tool but in real life it's just cheap "chromed" plastic like you get in plastic kit models. Almost no weight to it and feels cheap. As mentioned elsewhere it's no good for extracting chips from a dense board - it needs lots of room at the top and bottom of the chips to get the large pincers in. Great in theory but almost useless in practice and way overpriced for a plastic item. Ho hum, you live and learn.

Broke 2nd use. Original from late 70's and early 80's was better. Not worth the money asking.

Parfait

Als alter Elektrobastler ist es immer ein kleines Problem, ICs aus ihren Fassungen zu heben. Hier haben wir ein gutes Werkzeug, das uns dabei helfen kann, das Bauteil gut auszuhebeln, ohne es zu beschädigen.

Me ha gustado que es capaz de extraer chips de 42 y 40 pines sin mucho esfuerzo. Algo que no me ha gustado es q es un poco latoso el quitarlos del extractor una vez que han salido. Comparado con otros que he tenido es el mejor sin duda. No es de metal, es un material plástico salvo las garras que sí que son de acero o algún metal muy resistente. Excelente producto.

I bought this to work on my Commodore 64 computers. Works great, more with larger chips like the 6510 CPU and CIA chips, but removed the smaller ROM chips just fine. Useless to me when it came to the smaller RAM and logic chips - otherwise, a great must have tool so you don't bend the pins when removing.

Works great
