I have a bathtub that had a corroded drain flange that I wanted to replace. The drain piece is also missing the crosshairs. I bought a drain key from Lowes (the only one I could find) that is nothing more than a hunk of tapered metal with knurled sides and a 1/2" socket fitting on top. Anyway, I put it in the drain and attempted to turn it. It ended up braking the flange completely off. Now I have an ABS drain with metal threaded into it! I tried spraying with WD-40 and using the drain key but it doesn't grip enough to be of any use. I also tried to grab the very small top of it and twist but the metal just broke off. Any suggestions on how to remove the threaded metal stuck in the ABS?
