🔧 GEARWRENCH 1/4" and 3/8" Drive 120XP Flex Head Teardrop Ratchet Set – Dual Material | 81204P Review

Everything is made abroad anyway. Gearwrenches are of excellent quality and are usually at the forefront of technology or innovation. The flex head became popular after they launched it and then the 120xp. I bought them a few years ago and a bunch of Tool Cart visitors went out and started buying them. Same guarantee as everything else, but you can guarantee it from retailers! You don't have to look for a stupid truck. 120 makes it really smooth. It takes about a day to get used to the flexible

Was a bit hesitant after reading the feedback on the status of these tools. As others have mentioned, the ratchets I received were badly scratched and ruined. I made an exchange and the second set was actually in worse condition. Functionally, they may be fine, but when you're paying the price for a new instrument, you want to be the one scratching it. I chose not to open any of the sets and have sent them back. Walmart has the same set for a few bucks more with 2 day delivery. Therefore, I…

I've used 1/4" and 3/8" ratchet on a few small garage projects and so far so good. Haven't used it for anything really high torque yet so can't comment on the ratchet's strength/durability yet. They turn the ratchet very easily so my "I'm not an engineer but I play one of these on TV" is wondering how durable they will be with higher/heavier use. I'm used to a heavier/harder ratchet, as are my other wrenches (Cobalt wrenches with large teeth and Armstrong with fine teeth). However, this is…

Monday to Friday Saturday and a half I've been testing these ratchets since I bought this set of gear wrenches in 2019. 04 Honda Civics whose extension value was changed to 06 Ford F150 with 5.4 Triton replacing timing chain and oil pump. The 120-tooth ratchet head allows me to tighten nuts and bolts in tight spaces, and the flexible head helps too. The extra length of this ratchet gives me the extra braking torque I need for those stubborn bolts I might encounter while working on the brakes…

I don't usually write reviews but thought I'd pay up front for this ratchet set. My experience, I am a mechanic in one of the branches of the military, as well as a technician in the local marina. I've been using them for several months and I'm completely satisfied with the quality here. Transmissions are smooth and quiet. I normally use 3/8 and 1/4 drive rigs but have since switched to this set. As long as they appear indestructible. I value these things a lot and they always last. This is my…

First of all, I'm a skilled mechanic with almost 20 years of experience. I haven't used anything but Snap-on, Blue Point, Mac and some Armstrong for about 16 years. For the price I find it unbeatable. I was in a bind and had to mentally copy this 3/8 ratchet since I was out and didn't have any tools with me. I was sure it would break, but that was all I had at the time. We're all familiar with those jerky repairs you just need to get home. I had a 3/8 ratchet on that bolt, it was buried deep…

I have a 1/2" GearWrench and I have to admit it's one of my least favorite tools, although it gets the job done. Although I've decided to keeping this ratchet I will be returning these two.The main reason I didn't pay attention to these ratchets is that they don't seem to be well balanced overall, at least to me.The head is too heavy, the handle feels like a harder plastic than the rubber grips, too flimsy and difficult to grip. The general feeling of instability, difficult to describe, makes…

I've been using this semi-professionally (usually 3-4 times a week at tech school) for about half a year now and I think that's long enough for me to comment reasonably. Haven't had any wear issues so far, but it hasn't really been long-term, so I still tend to view it as a "lack of obvious and immediate issues". The head is also quite thin, which is nice. As for the flexible head, I personally like the latches that hold it in place, yes it's not as "infinitely" adjustable but it's probably…
