Efficient tang break-off is dependant upon several conditions, the correct diameter tool being the most obvious factor. However sufficient thread must exist in the tapped hole to provide the necessary support at the tang elbow and adequate clearance beyond the insert must be present to allow for tang deflection.
Assuming those conditions apply, de-tanging is a very simple operation to perform. The specified limits for drilling and tapping lengths in tabulated form, have been calculated to ensure such conditions.
