I tried vice grips I can’t quite get hold of them.
That doesn't quite... sound possible. They have quite a big head.
Sorry to suggest over-obvious things but... have you sprayed them with WD-40 or the like, let them soak for a while, grabbed them sideways - not head-on - and turned (anticlockwise ;·) towards the inside of the pliers? Meaning, towards the short bit, opposite the tightening screw? Try pre-tightening them a bit more... I mean, no screw can resist that, not with that surface to grab. Easy enough to break them, actually.
