Review on Makita 99390 Impactx Socket Adapter by Michael Crossman

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Stronger than the tool you will abuse.

Great adapters. or "something to get something working that it wasn't meant for". These widgets are great for making you believe that your compact 1/4" impact wrench can do the job of a 1/2" impact wrench. even if he can't or shouldn't. It even removes a few nuts. However, be aware that this only works for a while and your tool will eventually fail prematurely. I used this kit for a bit of brake work before gritting my teeth and buying a Makita 1/2 inch impact wrench. The old (matte) model is now very affordable. The bits themselves are very durable and will undoubtedly last a lot longer than the impact wrench you abuse. This assumes they don't get stuck in the feed permanently.

Pros
  • Power tools and hand tools
Cons
  • I will add later
