Why Choose This Product?

A tool that flexes or slips under load costs you the fastener, not just the tool.

Straightforward kit that keeps working long after the cheap alternatives have failed.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I run it on a breaker bar?

Yes. With a 1/2" square drive it takes a ratchet, an extension or a breaker bar when a fastener needs more leverage.

Can I use it with an impact wrench?

Yes, that is what it is made for. It is impact rated, so it stands up to air and electric impact tools rather than cracking like a chrome socket would.
