Review on 40 13 6QR KN QuickRelease by Andrew Kamkoff

When it comes to quality instruments, nothing beats Stahlwille to me. This is a complete kit with just about every 1/4" accessory you could want. I ordered a 14mm socket for this kit to make it a little more useful for me when working on cars. After After changing the timing belt, water pump and radiator that same night, I found that holding a 1/2" or 3/8" ratchet in your hand gets tiring after a while. You really don't need the extra torque of one large ratchet for most basic car maintenance, especially when you have such a high quality 1/4" set. I took off a star because of the size of the ratchet. It's too small and too good. I have another Stahlwille ratchet of the same size but I think it had around 25 teeth. There are about 80 teeth in this set. This is great for super fine work, but probably not great once you start applying torque to it. Every other part in this set can easily handle some pretty serious torque, but I'm afraid of overloading the ratchet. I bought a 1/4" flex grip so I wouldn't kill this little guy. Stahlwille makes a 6" ratchet with a 1/4" handle that they could include in this set to handle a lot more torque. I wish they would have included it instead. This.
