You should take all the products you show and make an Amazon storefront or a link to your page of each item
I agree
I'd love to see reviews of slightly more specialized automotive tools, as I'm just delving into backyard mechanic work. I'm struggling with picking out things like spark plug and sensor sockets. I'm not sure how much you'd be interested in this, but I trust your eye for tools!
Snap on has these and they lock on to wrench love that little tool
Nice review, Thanks!
Thanks for showing us those options .....711L have some other interesting adaptors for edc, an intergrated 1/4" square drive/1/4" hex sleeve on a 1/4" hex extension and also a 1/4" hex to 4mm micro bit socket adaptor
I have the Hazet adapters set. First, you need reversible ratcheting wrenches for them to be useful and they are; with a normal or shallow socket they may have a smaller footprint than many ratchets. The offset of the wrench means it can be put either way on the adapter and reach a difficult spot. But better to buy them as a set with ratcheting wrenches (some companies include the 4 adapters in a set) so you know they interlock well. Gedore red (previously Carolus) has a nice metric ratcheting wrenches set for about 80e in Europe that includes the adapters.
The Wera 8009 Zyklop with the addition of a Wera socket belt or even the Klein 7 in 1 would give you a very tight set that could tackle just about anything. Throw in one of these ¼” adapters and u truly could do a ton.
Williams WS-4RWA 4-Piece Ratcheting Adaptor Set or Snap-on RWA404.... some other brands as well. of course you can use em 2 ways to get positive or even negative offset on fixed ratcheting box wrenches, of course you can use em with a flex head ratcheting wrench but also of course you can use em with fixed combined wrenches especially smaller ¼ sockets and ¼ bits are particurlarly useful in tight quarters where some torque is needed. A useful socket is 3/8" drive and ¼hex for bits... e.g. torx 45 using a long flex head 3/8 ratchet... or speeder such as FSLF80
I’d prefer more hex base sockets like some of the low profile sockets are. Need more of it. Lol
And also, someone to make a cap with a button like a quick release ratchet that would keep a socket in the wrench if it could be done without wrecking clearance
Nice little adapter tool tour. I feel like every 1/4, 3/8 ratchet should be a flex-head and see little point in using a fixed head like your 3/8 Snap-On - Thoughts?
Good question. I’ve found some applications don’t favor flex heads due to the unstable angles or alignment with fasteners especially when no using deep sockets. But if i could only have one, it would be a flex head.
Fixed-head ratchets are stronger, more stable, and less prone to failure if you're applying a lot of force. Pro techs tend to favour locking flex-heads as offering the best of both worlds, but a fixie will always be stronger.
Astro stubby impact 3/8 square 17mm hex on socket set
Husky Low Profile Impact sockets appear to be the same OEM and identical. Also they are cheaper and more often in stock. The 1/2 nano stubbies fit a 22mm ratchet wrench, if you need those sizes.
@@3vil3lvis bought husky 3/8, astro 1/2
Astro nano sockets (or Husky Low Profile Impact sets) in 3/8 and 1/2 inch drive + the 17mm / 22mm Astro ratchet wrench = maybe the shortest ratchet combo ever. Just be careful you don't unscrew a bolt in a spot you can't remove the wrench and get locked in.
Vim has a wobble set of adapters part # Wsa100
They have a place for sure. But most times I just don’t grab mine.
Koken lists that 8mm - 1/4" square adaptor as a 5/16" adaptor, which might explain the slight loose impression you got.
Do you have the part number?
I would really like to see some comparative destructive tests on Koken - unable to find ANYONE doing so. Cannot tell whether it's a Chinesium startup sending their stuff to low-sub youtubers or a real brand that's just not really discovered in the English-language social media like Grey Pneumatic.
It's one of the great Japanese tool makers, they only make socketry items, which are cold-forged.
Ko-ken is a premium Japanese brand dating back to the 1940s, you won't be disappointed.
Project Farm has tested and broken some Koken ratchets. My recollection is that they were not that impressive, which was disappointing because I have a bias for Japanese tools.
My SK nut driver has the 1/4" square on the end of the handle like the Snap On you have? Very rare tool?
do you have the link for those 3/8 spinners ,, that looks handy
I bought some hand ratchets from Powerbuilt which have a quarter inch hex bit socket on one side, and a socket anvil on the other (1/4 or 3/8). They’re all metal and look like old fashion gas caps. Great for tight spaces, and not too pricey.
I found the Orings on the Hazet adapters can get chowdered pretty easily, but not sure what would be a better system for how well they fit
I bought a gearwrench set of those from 1/4 to 1/2 close to 20 years ago, they look identical. Not sure if gearwrench still makes them?
Me too. They fortunately include spares in the kit. Yes, probably gearwrench makes these for Hazet.
Also 8mm is close enough for 5/16
Minimal size? The 100mm Knipex Pliers Wrench is clearly smaller than all of these and has semi ratcheting action. :)
They should make those adapters in 11mm so that wrench can get used.
Snap-On sells a lot of these style adapters under blue point, ive never picked one up because they it works with reversing ratcheting wrenches and dont state otherwise. Do you wish to find out for us all Doc?
Can you please give me the part number of the snap on adaptor on 1:22 ?….thank you and sorry to bother you
Do you have a part number for the 8mm Koken. At 2:27?
