Recently was unable to loosen the bolts of an electric fan motor that needs rebuilding.

Have never had this problem before so my first thought is the bolts have a high strength thread locker.

Did a forum search to check if anyone else had mentioned this problem but found nothing.

Am interested in all suggestions to loosen these bolts.

Thanks

As said some localised heat (gas torch) preceeded by a squirt of some
penetrant like wd40, penetrene etc and use a correct size socket or ring
spanner.
