They'll have fun then if its rounded off,
They will probably end up drilling the head off it and try punching it out the other side.
Be better if they drill it from the thread side as thats into a steel insert and less chance of enlarging the hole in the Alloy swingarm

You don't need 10 bar for your impact wrench. They work on volume of air not air pressure. All you do is **** the wrench quicker if you use it above 90psi (6 bar).

As I didn't want to go and spend the best part of £600 on a new compressor with a higher volume than the 30CFM and 270 Litre tank one I have in the garage and upping the pressure was possible then thats what i opted for and it did the trick and got the bolt out.
A New Impact wrench would be a lot cheaper to replace than buying a new compressor but I don't need to as the Impact Gun is still working fine
