I have both , they proved to be very useful ! I basically threw the Klein handle over my left shoulder , to save bulk ! I have a pile of 1/4” hex handles ! I typically run Malcos in ratcheting 1/4” hex drivers !
@@ParklanCustom yeah, it's chrome outerlining eventually wears off but I've never had a magnet actually break and neither have my coworkers. It can be a pain in the ass to remove the reversible bit if you've been driving a lot of 2in zips aswell
ive never had a magnetic nutdrivers magnet break inside the shaft, even w the toughest of usage for years on the same one,, but i alwayysss have em lose their magnets , they come unglued, and pull out w a nut or what have you, and i never notice and their gone forever... and fyi if you dont know,, Dewalt makes 2 in 1 nut as well as single removable magnetic setters as well,, and those are interchangeable w the kleins,, i like the kleins the most, but the dewalts are cheap and come w 2inch shafts which work alot better in impacts imo..(im not working thru alot of stuff to need a longer reach) but yeah i keep a set of 2 of the dewalt 2 in 1s (which are 1/4" n 5/16" ,, and 3/8" and 7/16") in my tool box for quick handy use, and have my kleins on the handle for using for more hand held delicate work if that makes sense. (plus i dont wana fuck up the kleins, but i can put the Dewalts thru the dirt, a new 2 in 1 of those was 7 bucks
*****and lemme correct myself, those dewalt removable /2 in 1 nut drivers blades are interchangeable w the kleins.. meaning the Dewalts 2 inch blades will hold theirs as well as kleins nutsetters heads, but the Dewalt heads WON'T fit on the klein blade. ****
I use magnetic nut drivers 5 days per week, the magnet always breaks, however it still works. Magnets are notoriously brittle. Of course I use mine almost exclusively with impact drivers.
I have both of these and really like both. I live about 3 miles from Malco, great company. Thanks for the video.
Malco is definitely impact rated.Ive put 1000s of screws of all kinds into sheet metal and still going strong 💪. Love it.

I have to admit, I like the malco’s better than the Klein.
@@ParklanCustom yep better build quality !
Got my Popcorn Ready!! Lets get this movie Started!!!
Thanks for the video after watching I got the 4" Malco
The Malco seemed to work really well for driving hex head fasteners, definitely a good purchase. I'm glad the video helped! Thank you for stopping by!
ive used malco drivers in impacts for years, theyre definitely capable btw
Does the magnet hold up on the reversible nut driver?

Ripped the magnet out of both of them in less than 3 weeks. Great drivers but they both don't last. HVAC tech for 25 years.
Malco looked like the winner to me.
When it comes to driving nuts, It certainly seemed to work better.

I had one of em impact nut drivers from Wiha and they do break into chunks@@ParklanCustom
Malco , FTW , they also have Metric !
Malco makes great products we use a lot of malco products at work.
@@ParklanCustom They make some really good sheet metal tools , I really appreciate their small snips , way less size , weight , and bulk than Wiss !
do you know if they are interchangeable? I currently own the klein version but want to add a reversible 8mm-10mm onto it...
Wondering if the Malco fit on the Klein shaft? Looking to add some 8-10mm metric to my Klein.
I actually tried that out after seeing this comment, unfortunately they are not interchangeable.
My man has cuts and scars on his hands and knuckles. Lends more than a bit of credibility.
Sometimes you gotta sacrifice a little skin to get the job done!
This is a terrible review
