not bad so far. fits wrench

Everything was going well until 2 weeks ago. I am a master mechanic and have been involved with cars and tools all my life and have seen everything before. I was trying to remove a 10mm bolt from a fairly hard to reach spot on my car, nothing out of the ordinary until one (1) extension I bought was cut in half as much as possible. it's not like this. Sorry, I just don't want anyone else to have to go through this.

Pros
  • Access hard-to-reach fasteners and change the force angle, save time and labor.
Cons
  • weak

Gets into hard-to-reach places, but breaks under load

Good range of lengths. Used to work on intake manifolds and air intakes on Jeeps (and other vehicles of course) that still have wiring and hoses. With a hesitation, I can slip through this whole bushing at an angle to tighten the bolts. Works well and better than most universal joints (which don't stay straight) and flexible extensions (which have very little torque). Work with 10mm screws. This has never happened in decades of using 1/4" tools. Continue to use another brand with no problems.

Pros
  • Spring-loaded detent ball ensures tool is held securely.
Cons
  • No instructions

Questionable Quality and Quality Assurance

I haven't tightened them much yet. They seem a bit cheaply made. On some of them the drive side flats do not line up with the drive side flats. In 40 years of using hand tools I have never seen the front flat side mismatch with the back flat side. It makes sense to me that if they can't pay attention to such details due to the quality of the steel and the manufacturing process, that might raise suspicions as well. I don't expect too much from these things and won't use them heavily unless…

Pros
  • Vastool U-Joint can be used in different situations like car, bike, all kinds of maintenance work.
Cons
  • Obsolete
