Review on GEARWRENCH 29 Pc. 1/2" Drive 6 Pt. Impact Socket Set, Deep, Metric - 84935N by Brad Davis

You'll never need to buy another socket set ever again

I bought these sockets roughly a year ago and have used them quite often in a shop setting. The value of these sockets compared to other brands is insane! You can literally go get a Snap-On set and it cost you more money (roughly $500-$600) and you would get less variety of sockets and in my opinion realistically the same quality. I'm not going to bash the quality of snap on impact sockets as I've used them and they are well made but with the price of the snap on, its unjustifiable to go that route. Now obviously the sockets are getting abused especially since I use my Milwaukee impact or my air cat. I use the sockets on axle nuts, Rusty suspension bolts, have used them on bolts that were seized, rusted and pretty much anything that I've had to heat up and PB blast. I've seen minor damage to the sockets even after all the abuse and heat transfer over the course of the year. I personally feel that they will hold up for a way longer time and I really don't think I'll ever need to buy another socket to replace them. My suggestion is buy this set or buy the Grey Pneumatic set you'll be happier that you did.

Pros
  • Black phosphate corrosion-resistant coating, laser etched with high-visibility markings and hard stamped labels
Cons
  • Some users may need a more extensive set
