Review on πŸ”§ High-Quality Cal Hawk Tools BSSTS22 22-Piece Torx Socket Set – Versatile and Durable by Puggzy Wallin

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Very high quality: hand and power tools

I think we all have seen these cheap socket wrench sets, bulky, fragile and light. This is NOT one of them! This set is as good as my Craftsman, SK and NAPA sets. (I can't compare them to Snap-on because I can't afford to buy that brand.) The sockets are polished chrome and the smaller sizes have appropriately tapered lugs, so you don't have to carry that monstrous socket a few tiny screws like you get in those junk kits. Even the case is up to date: strong, durable plastic with good hinges, latches, and notches with markings to keep all sockets in place. If you are hesitant to buy because like me you have never heard of Cal Hawk and are unsure of the quality of this set, I can tell you that the quality of this set is top notch. Note that if you are purchasing this kit to access the E4 screws on a GM ignition switch, the deep E4 socket in this kit is barely sufficient. I was able to do that on my 2001 safari but it was close. You'd probably be better off buying one of the dedicated outlets I've seen here at Revain. I bought this set thinking I could get a whole box of heads for just a little more money than buying an upgraded E4 designed for GM applications. While I am not disappointed with my purchase, if I had to do this job again I would purchase a single connector.
