got the job done
Would RecommendNeeded the larger size to do the job of replacing the heating element in a fifth wheel camper. Probably be the only time I need to use this size, but glad I could purchase just the one for a decent price.

Does what it needs to do

Follow mfg instructions) I put it on the impact, pulled the trigger, and off it came. (the nut that is) The socket looks like brand new even after I had to remove and reinstall the nut two or three times. The only thing the tool truck guy has over this is price. That is he is over priced. High quality, lifetime wa...
