Professional wise I'm into transmissions dealing with torques up to 1.000.000nm and more (yes, one million nm and more)

But never, never had troubles with easy-outs. They do not always do the trick (mostly they do though), and never broke one. Wonder how others do make them break...? But true, if broken, you could get in even bigger trouble.
