TEKTON 4971 2 Inch Extension 3 Piece Review

Nice and heavy. Well made and solid. Thick wall around the ratchet square. Should be long enough! The only downside I found is that they have no tekton or branding at all. Just"Chrome Vanadium". Another Taiwanese tool (which suits me) but no name can be without a guarantee. I keep the package they arrived in just in case.

It only has one hole drilled in it as a holder so only one side is securely attached to the key. It takes a little time to line up the hole with the ball each time you stop, but if you don't, the extension may slip off the button. The finish was very rough but I found cleaning the extensions with a damp scotch sponge left them nice and smooth. Overall good tool for the money.

I bought this set 2 years ago (3 engine overhauls and 2 gearbox overhauls) along with some other Tekon tools. High quality steel, these and all tools are as good as any expensive well known brands, tight tolerances and top notch craftsmanship are the reason I keep buying Tekton, these extensions can handle very high torque (200lb+) - if you add or want to start creating High quality mechanical tools - look no further. You won't find anything better at any price (those are prices so I can afford

I like that they come with 3", 6" and 8" extensions. I used to only use one length of Craftsman extensions, the worked 95% for me That 5% is extremely frustrating at times. The 3" wrench is great for wrenches or areas where you need a little more extension. The 8" wrench is great when you don't have 2 Can mount bars but 1 bar is not enough.The black oxide coating is not as smooth as chrome but the thicker material lends itself to high impact/torque applications.Also excellent, you can't beat it

These quality extensions seem to last a lifetime. I have used them with my TEKTON 15356 1/2" drive from 24" breaker bar and they work great. They are very tight on keys and sockets. In fact, they are quite difficult to remove, so they fit nicely. Although I don't see that as a disadvantage. You need a tight fit for something designed for use in an impact wrench. This set comes with 3", 6" and 8" extensions. The diameter of the shaft extension is approximately 1/2". Pros: * Very tight fit * Can…

Wow what a set! If I threw them against a brick wall, I would be afraid of the bricks. Here are some really buzzing, powerful extenders. Bought them along with a Tekton torque wrench to work with the car. They are advertised for impact wrenches so I think they are a lot more torque resistant. Yes, it will affect your torque readings a bit if you use it to do that, but your torque and your car depend a lot more on guessing with a regular wrench or ratchet and snapping your threads or rocking…
