Our take on the Craftsman 3/8 drive Metric 6 Point Ratchet Set

This is an 11-piece 3/8-inch drive metric socket set built around a 72-tooth ratchet with a full-polish chrome finish. The 72-tooth head needs only about 5 degrees of swing, which helps in tight engine bays and under dashes. Six-point sockets grip flats rather than corners, so they resist rounding stubborn fasteners. It suits home mechanics and DIYers who want a compact metric set, though it covers a narrow size range and skips deep or impact sockets that larger kits include.

Pros
  • 72-tooth ratchet needs little swing in tight spots
  • Six-point sockets grip fasteners firmly
  • Full-polish chrome resists corrosion and wipes clean
  • Large size markings are easy to read
  • Meets or exceeds ASME specifications
Cons
  • Only 11 pieces, so the metric size range is limited
  • No deep, swivel or impact sockets included
  • No SAE sizes, so it won't cover inch fasteners
  • 72-tooth head is coarser than fine-tooth ratchets with 90 or more teeth

Questions and answers

Is this set worth it for basic car maintenance?
Yes for light jobs like battery terminals, valve covers and brackets. The 11 pieces limit it to common metric sizes, so heavy suspension or engine work needs a bigger set.
How does it compare with a 90-tooth ratchet?
A 90-tooth ratchet needs less swing, which helps in very tight spots. The 72-tooth head here is still fine for most home work and is simpler and often sturdier.
Does it include SAE sockets?
No. This is a metric-only set, so you need a separate SAE set for inch fasteners.
What sizes are in the box?
The set has 11 pieces: a 3/8-inch drive ratchet and 10 metric six-point sockets in common sizes. Check the listing for the exact size range before buying.
Can I use these sockets with an impact wrench?
No. These are chrome hand-tool sockets, not impact-rated. Use impact sockets with power tools to avoid cracking.
Is the ratchet covered by a warranty?
Craftsman hand tools typically carry a lifetime warranty. Keep your receipt and check the current terms with the seller.
