Review on Tool Aid SG 81000 The Slugger: Unleash Heavy-Duty Power with this Superior Slide Hammer by Terry Myers

Revainrating 5 out of 5

If you need it, look no further.

If you are looking for a slide hammer, this is a good choice. 4 1/2 stars. A mediocre board loses half a star. Pros: - Comfortable grip shape for both hands, about as comfortable as a slide hammer - Most tips are useful and there's a good selection - 10 lbs gets the job done on heavy draws. I often use it with the Mo-Clamp Tac-n-Pull on rockers and high-strength steels where my stud driver just rips holes because it doesn't have enough contact surface. The board is much more practical than the box. I just wish I had wall space to mount it instead of leaning against my tool box. Cons: - The board leaves a lot to be desired. It's been a few months and I haven't pulled any of the tip holders, but they don't inspire confidence. The board itself is also MDF so make sure it is dry or it will swell. - Since it's not in a box, it's coated. - Gravity is round, so it rolls. incomprehensible goal (I'm looking at you-a-pipe-with-a-squashed-end).

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Very expensive
