Review on Ares 70243 - 3-Piece 1/4-Inch Socket Extension Set - Includes 2-Inch, 4-Inch & 6-Inch Extensions - Premium Chrome Vanadium Steel with Mirror Finish by George Johnson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

So far so good in actuator socket sets

I needed some new 1/2" extensions for work but didn't want to spend money on the tool cart option. Decided to give it a try. I've only had them a few days but I like them. They were hit in one fell swoop to remove various bolts and nuts and survived without complaining. The ball detent has a strong hold, which is nice, and the tolerances are tight. There is very little wobble in the jacks and no fear of accidentally dropping them. I have several other Ares tools and am happy with them as well.

Pros
  • QUALITY: Manufactured from high strength, heat treated, chrome vanadium steel, these socket wrench extensions feature a corrosion resistant nickel/chrome CRV finish for industrial, mechanical or construction applications. ARES receptacle extenders meet and exceed ANSI/ASME standards.
Cons
  • Questionable senior purchase
