don't trash it for a broken bit . just work at it you should be able to get it out . I know it's frustrating as all heck . heat it if you have to , to expand the steel and bang it upside down on something . If your careful , you can drill from the other side enough to push it out . I've only been trashing my aluminum hubs with broken taps
