Review on Steelman Heavy Duty Installer Automotive Comfortable by James Mayfield

Revainrating 3 out of 5

OK, with reservations Tire repair tool

Very heavy and strong, but typically China, the hole for the ball holder was not drilled in the middle, which reduces the holding power of the ball. So the stopper doesn't provide the retention I want, it just seems to work but doesn't feel as good as a ball butt. The pin for the fulcrum was also drilled crookedly, a hole right next to the edge on one side, and then when the head wobbles it's a bit crooked, not too bad, but the consequences are because the hole is crooked, it lies clearly in the stress zone of the tool - most likely will not break (?), but. It would cost as much to make this instrument as it would to make it like mine. On the bright side, the rubber rim guard is a harder rubber than I was expecting from all the other reviews. The overall quality of this item reminds me of 80's Taiwan.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • No instructions
