    Identify this plastic MATCO tool box

    I carry it on the side too!! The top handle sometimes slip out. A few times that box dropped to the ground and spilled everything. But since it's blow molded, the box survived mostly unscaved.

    Identify this plastic MATCO tool box

    Haha..I'm not alone. If you look closely the tray handle is broken too on both ends. I have a screw there to hold it in place. And one the the latches broke after a few years of use too. Mine has been relegated to plumbing tool storage in the garage but I still use it on occasion when I...

    Identify this plastic MATCO tool box

    Is anyone here (Matco rep?) familiar with this plastic Matco box? This was bought off the truck in the early 1990s. This was one of my first tool purchases ever so I'm sort of attached to it. I recently contacted Matco customer service to see if I can obtain a replacement latch but the CS...

    S-K warranty?

    The SKs in my box are some of my favorites too. I recently needed a part for a broken 3/8" ratchet. I called and spoke to a nice lady on the phone. She said the part was in stock and they will be happy to ship me one. A few weeks past and nothing received. I called again and was told...

    Just got off of the phone with SK

    I had high hopes when I called SK customer service 4 weeks ago looking for a ratchet rebuild part. The nice lady on the phone said she has the part I needed in-stock and can send one out to me. That was 4 weeks ago and I still haven't received anything from them in the mail. Last week I...

    Get the Cman Pro wrenches because when the USA made ones are gone...they are gone ! That's what I just did a few weeks ago. Figure I would just sit for a while during the 90 days to decide if I want to keep them or not. Well....after unpacking them, I knew immediately they are not going back...

    SK Thumbwheel Help

    The cap doesn't sit flat on the guts because of that bent selector lever. I put the guts on a vice and hit that piece with a punch. Unfortunately, it pops right back up. Tonigth I'm going to take this apart and see if I can bend that arm down a bit. Thanks.

    SK Thumbwheel Help

    It did take apart the 1/4 wheel. The selector on that one isn't bent up like this. But the parts on the 1/4" wheel are smaller and different. I'm pretty sure this is a mfg defect or customer created return but I want to be sure before contacting SK.
