The EZ out is for unscrewing a threaded connection, I've spent a bunch
of time with those only to have the EZ out break off in there too. Then
you've got a real mess of hardened tool steel.
I would first drill several small 1/8" holes in the lead around the
circumference of the bolt. Then, I think tapping or pressing it out is
the way. The wheel puller would probably work. You'll end up with an
enlarged hole that you can either use a bigger bolt, or washers to deal
with.
I agree some of the hardware that comes with cheaper L 16s, is
inferior. I've had plenty of those square heads come off with minimal
torque.

Yup, id pre-drill and use an ez-out, or use a flaring tool as a small
press and drive it out.

Greetings,
Do any of you battery gurus have a suggestion for a method of
removing a bolt remnant that is corroded into a flag terminal.
Both sides snapped off flush with the flag. I was thinking try to
drill it out or maybe a small gear pulling tool? I will never
again use the non stainless hardware supplied by the manufacturer...
Picture attached for reference.
Thanks!
