Review on CTA Tools 2476 U Joint Socket by Elvis Kimbro

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Not compatible with SnapOn for Spare Parts

I really want one, it's less than half the price of the SnapOn analog and nobody else makes a 1/4 E10 swing head. I use this outlet all day every day and it just doesn't feel right. The problem is the "comb" at the top, it's not deep enough. The rosette sits on 6 points but does not level out around the flared base. SnapOn, Matco and Hazet heads sit lower and will not blow off the bolt. It slides off the bolt like a regular 8mm socket, negating the e10 part. The $47 SnapOn socket will continue to be popular.

Pros
  • OAL: 34mm (1-11/32") OD: 13.8mm. 1/4" square drive.
Cons
  • There are problems
