Broke on first use - wrench

6mm wrench broke on first use. The disadvantage of the design is that there is a locking ring on the T-handle of the wrench, which has a smaller diameter than the rest of the shank and is the breaking point. In theory they seem like good wrenches but they don't seem very high quality and they seem broken so I've decided to return and refund them. I would recommend paying a premium for a higher quality.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Not the best

Quality Tools - Wrench

They really are excellent. I am so fed up with these L shaped allen wrenches, they are clearly better and excellent quality. As others have noted it would be nice if the blue sleeves were pinned but that doesn't stop me from giving 5 stars because they are still amazing. Edit: Today I found out why the sleeves are not locked: you can hold on to the sleeve while turning the key, very helpful actually!

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • Repair

I like mine for wrenches

I really appreciate my set. They are used almost exclusively for bicycles. This is the ideal type of machine that they will work on. Definitely not for high torque / breaking off rusty material. There are other tools for that. Most mechanics will be able to pinpoint that limit right away and not slow it down. Keep them away from your student! The waves bend, the rotation function sometimes makes sense. Really great for installing lots of Allens IEs, setting up new bikes or whatever.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Not as thick as others

I think they do what they have to do, though.

After buying a pair of these stands (metric and torx) I found that allen wrenches come in sizes that jump a full mm each. Many screws are half mm in size. So often this set isn't the small size I need while the larger keys are up to 11 inches long. Good as a defensive weapon, but overkill for propellers. I'd rather buy a set of small keys. or a set of big wrenches, I just don't need the big ones but I like to use them when I can.

Pros
  • Best in the niche
Cons
  • Disappear

Good value for money and well thought out design

They are well designed and seem to be quite durable. I needed a decent reach hex to work on my mountain bike, compared to other options they were a lot cheaper and had some nice extras. The fast-spinning hub is handy, and the fact that the top bit slides in came in handy for getting torque in tight spaces. The locking of the slide attachment is different for each size, some sizes may seem too stiff to lock, some may move too smoothly, but in general it is convenient and not a serious problem. I

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • I will write later

Excellent set, excellent quality

These are really high quality wrenches, the only downside I have is that you can't "tighten" them because of the sleeve. I took off a star for that "speed case" they advertise, but it only sounds good on paper. It's useless - you need both hands to use it! Often those who work with their hands know that you usually hold something with one hand and turn it with the other, and because of this sleeve you cannot "twist" these wrenches between your fingers to loosen an already loose screw or withโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Hand and power tools
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

The fit of the hex key is good. This is probably the biggest flaw.

First, the Allen key fits well. This is probably the biggest problem with most allen wrenches. While there are certainly instances where this feature is useful, this is a low usage scenario. And the sleeve actually brings theses down a bit. They are easy to remove, however you will lose the hex key size markings. If you use Jex buttons a lot, this might not be a problem as you can visually determine the size. And the dimensions are actually on the stand. However, if you keep them in your toolโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Hand tool
Cons
  • Doubtful

A great tool, but there is one easily fixable downside.

I love these T-handle wrenches. a lot of. T-handle wrenches speed up your work because you can "twist" them to take up any play before tightening the bolt. L-shaped hex wrenches are suitable, but not as quick to use (because they can't be twisted). Once you have the screw ready, all you have to do is realign the tool in your hand and tighten the screw securely. Very easy! (And don't reach for another tool) The only "wrong" thing about this wrench set is this: They have an anodized aluminumโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Tools and Housewares
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than other pickaxes
