Review on πŸ”§ Ernst Manufacturing 8-Inch Socket Organizer with 9 3/8-Inch Twist Lock Clips in Blue – Efficient Tool Racking Solution (8408-Blue-3/8) by Jignesh Shaffer

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great modular approach to outlet storage

the smart way to organize and store them. Trying to find the right size nest when they're strewn across the bottom of your toolbox is an exercise in sharpening, the antidote to which are these shiny little Ernst nest organizers. Simply place the twist lock pins along the colored plastic bar. , place the nut over the pin (ratchet end first), then turn the nut 1/8 turn. The socket is now secured and will only disengage from the pin if you grab the socket and twist in the opposite direction. Each organizer also comes with pre-printed labels that fit snugly over each twist-lock bolt. No more lost outlets, no more hassles. I bought two outlet organizers (red for SAE, blue for metric) and my two sets of 3/8" Craftsman and Harbor Freight outlets fit perfectly. The colored organizer cases have a hole in one end for them to fit can be hung on a perforated board, or you can buy extra twist lock pins and add even more power outlets to the back of the organizer.The only real downsides to this product that I can think of are minor tolerance issues from the manufacturer (i.e. all the twist lock pins worked like intended, but some pins were easier to insert than others) and [probably] plastic pins with The twist lock will eventually wear out with heavy use. These things are just awesome. Buy with confidence.
