- Is this set worth it for a home mechanic?
- Yes, if most of your work is on 3/8-inch fasteners. You get two ratchets, standard and deep sockets in SAE and metric, and a lifetime warranty, which covers most general automotive and repair jobs.
- Does it include both SAE and metric sockets?
- Yes. It has SAE standard sockets from 1/4 to 1 inch and deep sockets from 1/4 to 7/8 inch, plus metric standard and deep sockets from 6mm to 19mm.
- What is the difference between the two ratchets?
- One is a full-length teardrop ratchet with a low-profile head and flush reversing lever for reach and leverage. The other is a stubby ratchet for tight spaces where the full-length tool will not fit.
- Are the sockets 6-point or 12-point?
- They are 12-point. That gives more starting angles on a fastener, but 6-point sockets grip worn or rounded heads better.
- What comes in the box?
- Standard and deep SAE and metric sockets, a full-length 3/8-inch ratchet, a stubby 3/8-inch ratchet, 3-inch and 6-inch extensions, universal joints and a blow-mold case.
- Does it work with other 3/8-inch drive tools?
- Yes. The sockets and extensions use standard 3/8-inch drive, so they fit other 3/8-inch ratchets, breaker bars and torque wrenches.
