Frequently Asked Questions

Does it work with my existing sockets and bars?

If your kit is 1/2" drive, yes. The square drive is a standard fitting, so ratchets, extensions and breaker bars all match up.

Is it strong enough for tight bolts?

For hand tools, yes. Put it on a breaker bar and it will shift a tight fastener, but leave impact guns to a proper impact socket.
