Review on Teng Tools 2-Piece Nut Splitter Set - NS02: Effective Removal of Broken, Damaged, Corroded, and Stuck Nuts by Marco Huff

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Uh, where to start?

The nut is located on the rear tie rod of the Linclon LS. The larger cutter was used first, it caused a crease in the nut, but the internal blade-to-blade attachment broke, allowing the cutter to fall out of the splitter assembly. Then the guide pin broke and the knife did not go in the desired cutting direction. I gave up and continued with the smaller incisor, which actually did more damage to the nut than the larger incisor. Note that the same events (damage) occurred on the smaller blade in relation to the internal attachment and guide pin that aligns the cutting blade. In addition, the blade is noticeably rounded and blunt after a single use. I severely "damaged" the nut, but she's still stuck in the car, and both nut-breaking tools are in a sorry state. I think a Ford nut is stronger than two Chinese crowbars. LOLPS: I see many other "sellers" selling the same product under different Chinese brands. Update: I went and bought a Milwaulkee saw with a short metal blade. I was able to slip the blade behind the washer and shear off the hanger bolt in about 5 seconds. Sawing is a beast. Next time I'll buy a tree blade attachment and threaten all the trees and shrubs. Attached is a photo of two instruments. The cutting blade is rounded. The alignment pin is missing and the small metal clip that holds the pin is cut off.>>>>Teng Tools, I want my money back!<<<
