, just mentioning it takes them for ever to get anything out. But that's the key to great products. I love the Zeal sockets, but using them with the Zeal ratchets is kid of a pain without quick release.
I realize this is for aviation and applications where FOD is a concern, but the thought of adding electrical doodads to hardline tools makes me cringe
Thought the same thing
. I was confused at first, since I'm an A&P mech. I'm like the heck is that? Meanwhile I'm working with standard snap-on tools on radar systems, electronic boxes and other various doodads.
There is only two 1/2 zeal options, both are solid head and normal length. One with button and one without.Been waiting forever. We got a flex head but no quick release.
Can you get a zeal 1/2" drive flex head? Maybe I already own one but I'm to lazy to look.
This is my only real criticism of Koken. They really need to push out full lines of products. I want a locking flex, the soft non Z handle, and the knurled handle. All this stuff can be offered quick as they already make it.
. But not as bad as the pliers. This is probably made on taiwan, not sure why tone doesn't come clean about this. For the price I payed no complains, it's gonna be a beater ratchet.
Oh nice like 30 / 6o double open end wrenches for hydraulicsThis cheap set is quite the opposite of all the fancy tools in here, but I just found it to be kinda neat.
Same size tip on both sides, but the crosspoints are clocked opposite of each other which would allow for another bite on the fastener with a 45° swing arc instead of 90°.
Flash makes one. Is this what you mean?When I ordered a Ko-Ken 135E-60B from Japan, it looked to me like the blurry picture showed that it was compatible with both 9mm and 13mm drivers, with a little ring on the shaft to keep it from rattling around in Japanese tools. When I received it today I found out this is not the case. Maybe they changed it?
What I really wanted was something like my KTC JBA3-65, which I could not find a 1/2" version of when I purchased it a few years ago. I have a Vessel version, but it is awkwardly long and heavy. I sometimes need the extra length of 1/2" deep sockets, but not the strength, so smaller is better.
After I downloaded the latest KTC catalogs I could find today, I noticed that the KTC version has been changed to a Western size anvil. And still no 1/2" version that I could find quickly.
Makita makes an adaptor. #A-44672I might try doing this. I have plenty of magnets, springs and glue.

Yes and its irritating to say the least.
@F-22 Do you have a link for this? It looks sweet.~23€ from Misumi. How could I not?
There not out of touch, it's just their whole business model is base in Asia, and Asia only. So they only release tools according to what ever trends the Asia market follows. But that not an excuse, if they wanted to enter the USA or EU Market, they need to make sure and offer the sizes for those cars.
He knows. He's been told. Less than 3 weeks ago in this very thread in fact. He's basically trolling at this point.
Tone doesn't make them. it's one of the big 3 Taiwan company that makes them (infar
). They make all of those from icon, facom, craftsman, VIM, Deen, and a lot more.
Doesn't ship to Germany
Just a side note about this...absolutely overbuilt and HD. Length for length, these are the heaviest pry bars (handy bars lol) I own. They use an I-beam design with a beefy handle.
