If you're considering the set pictured it looks like they have the 13mm shank used in Japan. Those won't lock into a standard impact driver chuck so you'd need an adapter that can accept them (or a tool with the deeper Japanese chuck).

That key section is on each page in the parts store to explain what the icons mean in the listings. You'll also see it at the bottom of category listings, search results, etc. Here's an example of a remanufactured and non-returnable part: And here's the socket set with no icons: There's...

Just to make things more confusing, what Spax calls T-Star Plus is different from Torx Plus. Torx Plus has differently-shaped lobes and T-Star Plus has that pin on the end to help keep the bit straight. A Torx Plus bit will not fit in a Spax screw, you kind of need to use the Spax bits for a...

Similar experience to others here, the M18 has been great and seems to reliably get within 0.5 psi of the target. I put a Jaco Lightning chuck on it and use it more than my fancy inflator gauge.

Based on a search of the forum gonna guess it's Nu-Source SL35A: https://nsimaterialsgroup.com/collections/tool-box-drawer-liner-material/products/tb-liner?variant=27183170879588 https://nsimaterialsgroup.com/collections/tool-box-drawer-liner-material Looks like the company used to engage...

Not really, the 1/4 nut grip is quite shallow (much more so than their standard sockets) and a bit will barely go in. Can't really recommend their 1/4 nut grip style bit holder either, for some reason they only used one retaining ball in that one and the retention is not very strong. The 3/8...

Looks like only 3/8 shallow for now. Also, locking wobble-fixed extensions: They have placeholders for the new stuff on their site: https://kokenusa.com/collections/all?sort_by=created-descending

I believe these are the same product. I have a Wiha 76000 purchased in the US and it says "1/4 387" on it and has an EAN that ends in 403317. The US site lists a UPC code, I'd guess the only difference is the product being packaged for the North American market. The different model to watch out...

The Amazon Global Store page says: Import duties, taxes, and fees included at the time of purchase The Amazon Global Store simplifies the import process and shows you the complete amount you will pay for orders for international products, including import duties, taxes, and fees.

For use with tools that use a locking pin instead of a retention ball. One example is the Stahlwille 3117 1/4 hex to square adapter, this uses a pin to more securely retain the socket when using with a power tool.

Apex describes it being about maximizing bit lifetime for a particular application. I think this more relevant for industrial use doing the same thing all day every day and most people here would just want to go with high hardness. Vessel has this:

A lot of their stuff is available through Zoro: https://www.zoro.com/b/BOJO%20TOOLS/

https://ktc.jp/nepros/30thproducts/ Limited edition sets for their 30th anniversary that will only be available for purchase via lottery and only as the boxed sets (no singles). Here’s a video that shows them a bit:

You might get charged US taxes though as described here: https://www.amazon.de/-/en/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=GVGNK597JQE4A423 These get baked into the price of the item at checkout rather than called out separately so you may see the price of items jump up from what was originally...

I have had an order split into multiple shipments a few times, but everything always made it to me. I did receive some extra items once that must have been from someone else's order, they just told me to keep them.
