Description of Capri Tools 1/4 in. Drive, 🔧 12-Piece Universal Socket Set - Metric 5-15 mm

Our universal sockets have a 40-degree working angle and rotate smoothly in 360 degrees, letting you reach and apply torque to fasteners even in tight spots. Premium Chrome Vanadium steel tempered with our proprietary heat treatment process to withstand more torque. Complete chrome plating, achieved through thorough polishing and careful application of chrome protective plating, ensures durability and corrosion resistance. Permanent stamped sizing does not fade over time. 6-point WaveDrive design grips fasteners more tightly than traditional design, preventing fastener rounding and giving you more leverage. 12-piece universal socket set includes 5, 5.5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15 mm, organized by size in a convenient impact-resistant tool case.

good value for money good for drive socket sets

these sockets: arrived early looks great i've only used one but it worked very well sockets have a nice thin side wall which allows them to get into hard to reach places fit slightly cost less, who could ask for more?

Pros
  • new
Cons
  • some little things

Great tools - sockets and socket sets

Disassemble, photograph, email, get new tool. None of them have broken yet, but that's politics and they're good. The boxes are good. I have been a professional automotive service professional for 30 years and at this price point wish I had access to this quality tool when I started.

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • Modern

Good quality, very useful

I now have a couple of Capri tools which have been a pleasant surprise. I bought this to install 11mm cap screws on my truck. Because of the style of the headstock, it was pretty damn impossible to reach the screws without them. They worked very well.

Pros
  • Excellent design
Cons
  • Communication with seller

Great value

These are great little sockets for the money, made in Taiwan, way better than Chinese crap. The well-designed base is slightly deeper than most flexible heads. Also the hinge pins are small hex head screws so they can be tightened and secured a little if needed and then used for life. I've been a mechanic for 40 years and can't beat them for the money.

Pros
  • Tools and Housewares
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Fixed set 1/4 inch.

I use them daily on a snapon ratchet 1/4 14.4v I'm a diesel tech so everything is in a confined space that my normal deep or shallow sets won't fit, I'll end up using them and I'll try to break anything loose up to 15mm as I'm too cheap to buy a 3/8 universal set. I have not broken any pins and have removed the alternator bolts and transmission bell housing bolts, both of which carry over 50 ft lbs of load. I would highly recommend them as you get a lifetime warranty with the tool.

Pros
  • Sockets and socket sets
Cons
  • So far so good

Good concept for sockets and socket sets

Snap-on makes that kind of "screw" instead of "pin", priced at $nap-on. I bought these thinking I could tighten the pivot joint to prevent the bushing from sagging and holding itself and the corresponding screw/bolt "in place". Tighten as much as you can and it will NOT get tight enough at the joint to flop. So I'm disappointed. while i'm talking Shine and shine don't impress me. functionality above all. Ordinary wrenches or crowfoot wrenches in an oil and grease situation require sufficient…

Pros
  • Power and hand tools
Cons
  • Unbelievable price
