An inside pipe wrench also called a pipe extractor. It drives into the broken off pipe and is then turned with a crescent wrench.

Normally a extractor or inside pipe wrench does not work removing a pipe . What works best is the use of a hack saw blade and a chisel to cave in the threads after the threads are cut.. BECAREFUL not to cut into the fitting threads

Compression uses a ferrule or brass ring around the pipe that is compressed by the nut into the pipe and against the fitting. There is no such thing as Female Pipe Threads. There are Male and Female fittings, the pipe is the Male side and the fitting is Female. The Male goes inside of the Female. They both have pipe threads.

How do you remove male pipe threads broken off on the inside of a female pipe fitting when the female fitting cannot be rotated?

To remove broken male pipe threads from a female fitting that cannot be rotated, you can use a left-handed drill bit slightly smaller than the thread diameter. Carefully drill into the center of the broken thread; as you drill, the reverse rotation may cause the broken piece to unscrew itself. If that doesn't work, you can also apply penetrating oil and use a screw extractor to grip and remove the remnants. Always ensure you have proper safety gear and take care to avoid damaging the female fitting.

Use a pair of plyers and two small pieces of cork to grab the threaded pipe while you rotate the female fitting. Also, if you don't need the threaded piece anymore, you can use a whole cork inserted into the threaded pipe with a bit of apoxy or super glue.

How do you remove male pipe threads that broke off in a?

Depends. What it is broke off in. Sometimes you can use a hacksaw blade and cut through the male part just through the threads and then pry out the piece. I have sometimes had to make three cuts and take the pipe out in sections. If it is in another pipe and you can heat the end, this will loosen the pipe and an E Z out or extractor can be used to back out the piece. If it is a small pipe that is too small for a hacksaw blade, if you are very careful and lucky, you can drill out most of the pipe to the threads in the female part and then peal out the thread or rethread the female side which will clean out the threads.
