Good quality socket for a reasonable price.

Would Recommend

The think I like most about this product is the quality level. The next best thing is that they are sold one at a time. I needed a single 1/2 inch drive 3/4 deep socket to fit in a particularly tight space. I put this one in the lathe, and reduced the OD just enough to fit in the recess of the assembly I was trying to take apart. I removed maybe 0.010" from the OD. Still plenty strong for most purposes.

A well made socket

Would Recommend

this is a well made socket and is a perfect fit to reach the head of a water heater anode for replacement. For me it's a maybe 2-3 time use tool but vital to the job

Just an average socket

Would Recommend

I give this 3 stars. The finish quality is good and looks like it will hold up and not flake off. But the socket wall thickness is not consistent, as if the blank was not centered as it was manufactured. Finding it the bin was an experience. Lowes should have someone in the tool section sort through those frequently. Even though I think the socket will last a while, the centering issue makes it an average socket.
