I hear that Ko-ken has the "nut-grip" technology with the ring shaped spring on some of their Allen bit sockets, but looking at the Koken web site I can't figure out which ones have this.
There aren't any 1/4 inch drive grip ring bits listed in my 2017-2018 Koken catalog.
Update: I glanced over the offering chart on page 38 in the catalog Pizza linked above, and the chart only shows the grip ring being offered in 3/8 drive.
