i've got the 3/8'' and 1/2''. not as good as my Matco ones, but they are still good tools.

I have the 1/2 drive version,has not broken on me yet.Same design as the Matco and Armstrong lasting 7 times longer than the pin design which Matco did this test.

I have the 3/8 drive version. It's a solidly US made design from Armstrong sold under Cratsman, Armstrong, and Matco banners. I'm not sure what info you want. However, if you're comtemplating buying impact swivel joints to use with shallow impact sockets instead of impact swivel socket sets, I would say you can get away with that with 1/2 drive but, not 3/8 drive. The combination of a shallow impact socket with a impact swivel joint has a much haigher profile than a dedicated impact swivel socket. In most 3/8 drive applications, space is a premium. Not so much if using 1/2 drive.

Thanks for the info. I'm looking to use them when I run into a time when I just can't get in there without a little angle. I'd like to get a set of impact swivel sockets, but I can't afford those, so I'm hoping these will do the trick in the meantime.
