If your rounding the bolt your best bet would be to get a socket for removing rounded bolts and nuts.I know sears sells a set also other places has them.

So are the compressor bolts 13mm bolts? So your using the correct size socket your using metric sockets?

6 POINT SOCKETS MIGHT BE PREFERRED OVER 12 POINT

DUE TO THE "NEW" ROUNDNESS YOU HAVE CREATED, YOU MAY HAVE TO "TAP" THE 6 POINTER DOWN OVER THE NUT TO SORTA "RE-HEX" IT
