I used a dremel to get a slot across the screw and unscrewed with a slotted screw driver. Still using that screw too, and I didn't have an equivalent. Its been in and out a few times.
What to borrow the dremel?

I don't want to hurt the Carbon its attached to
I think I'll have to hammer in a small flat head screw driver again Might pop by a few serious hardware stores and see what's available. Bunnings was no help but not really their thing. Walked away with some other tools though hehe

What he said.
Can you drill a small hole onto the head then hit a alen key into the hole you have drilled? Has worked on a door lock for me before but it is made out of softer steel

Easy Out, that's the thing, if they go that small, thanks Tyrone.
Last time I drilled a countersunk one out it didn't go great, had to replace the part the shaft was stuck in ( could probably do that, but its vintage :-) ).
As a man who hordes tools, I thought there must be a tool for this
Thanks for the ideas guys!

Yeah, that's something I was considering. It's a hex screw to begin with, so would have to force a slightly large one in, or attempt a corner to corner with the flat heat. It also has red loctite, which will make it even more annoying ( probably the cause of the original rounding.

I have used torx bits in the past just tap one in that's slightly bigger,they seem to bite in well.

My old man showed me a trick years ago. Think he glued the hex bit to the screw, using loc tight or something similar, then like magic it came undone. Heating the screw is a good idea too. That will weaken the red stuff.
My favourite gear is the blue stuff, tastes horrible though (don't ask that shit gets everywhere if your not carefull)
