Bondhus hex bit sockets, how good?

[derosa]

I've been wanting a good set of hex sockets and came across the Bondhus versions. Haven't found a lot on these, just wondering what their quality level is. Bondhus seems to be one of the better, best?, brands for hex tools in general though that doesn't necessarily make the sockets the hex bits are in very good. Also open to anything else good.

My experience so far is they are as good as any of the better brands, snap on, proto, etc. Still though, I too am interested in others real world experience. The only thing I have from them so far is long torx, though I wouldn't hesitate to get more if needed.

They are very strong, haven't busted one yet.

I'm not a huge fan of their hex bits/sockets, but their keys are awesome. I like proto sockets better. Bondhus warranty is great though.

I have quite a few Bondhus hex bits and Allen keys. I have the 2 piece gorilla grip folding hex keys, some long L shaped wrench sets, but my favorites are the 6" long Pro Hold bits. I have metric and sae. I bought mine on eBay with out the sockets and pressed them into some 3/8" Pittsburgh impact sockets. The bits themselves are impact grade and can be removed and reused if the socket ever breaks. Because I rarely use Allen bits with my impact wrench, I went with the HF impact sockets over a more expensive brand. Here are the bits I'm speaking of, but can be found cheaper on eBay. https://www.jbtoolsales.com/bondhus...mt21NeRkcnRncik_m_tloBY61UyD84eLfDBoCgqvw_wcB

I have had pretty good luck with my torx inserts. Broke one with a Snap On MG 325, but it was small (T20 or so) and they warrantied no problem. I had no business using that impact with it, but it held up for a little bit before failing!
