Review on πŸ”§ ARES 70198 - Low Profile Impact Socket Adapter Set - Impact-Rated Heat-Treated Chrome Vanadium Steel with Knurled Surface for Improved Grip by Ken Desens

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Great design but not sure about durability

At first I thought it was a great idea. After moderate use I broke the adapter from 3/8 to 1/2. It was only used with the 3/8 Cordless Percussion Pistol. It broke right away. After it was taken apart it dawned on me that from 3/8 to 1/2 on each side only 1/16 inch of the wall was left. How hard can it be? I like them as I'm a pro and use them a lot so I bought this set to replace my broken one. No, I don't have time for a warranty, I buy tools and expect them to work and last a long time. I don't want to try to swap these out every 8 months.
