Cman does not make the Deep 4.5 and 5.5mm nor do they make the 15mm.

I see your trying to fill up the hansen trays.

I may have the 4.5mm std and the 5/8 deep I will check when I get home.

I'm certain I have the standard depth metric. I won't get home until tomorrow to see how many. I just bought a large lot of sockets.

I'm beginning to believe to are correct on your first line, you are definitely correct on your second! You guys know your stuff! I'll wait to hear from you all to see if you may have the others. Thanks!

Armstrong makes the 4.5 and 5.5mm deep as well as the 15mm.

They are pricey though at about $8 a socket + shipping.

I''m filling my trays out too with missing sizes. CM makes a 5.5 deep 6pt socket. For the 4.5mm's and 15mm's I went with Armstrong and Blue Point for the 5/8's.

That is incorrect. Cman no longer makes a 5.5 Deep. Here is the link to the open stock catalog for review. After clicking the link click on Open Stock & Accessories.

Danaher quit making the 5.5 Deep for Cman, Kobalt, and Gearwrench roughly 2years ago. If for some reason you purchased it recently it must have been old stock.

It really bugs me having voids in the socket trays, I keep thinking I lost them

I stand corrected DRhodes, they no longer make this size/depth combination. I was going off what I had and I saw the 5.5mm shallow a week or so again. My 06' Craftsman catalog does not even list one in the open stock.

It bugs me to have an open peg as well. About half the time I just move the whole tray to my cart when working on some things. It's saved my i few trips down the steps.

The 15mm deep Armstrong goes for $7.31 around here. I have an in at one of the local dealers and got mine for $5.12. My 5/8" deep and shallow Blue Points were $7.10 together from my SO dealer. I'm down to just over a dozen open pegs. The 1/4" are all full now.

Mikie,

Which letter code is on your socket's? I'm sure I have enough of the shallow socket's that I can get a direct match to your set. The deep socket's will be luck of the draw.

I'll check when I get home (couple hours) I only recently purchased all the 1/4" sockets off of ebay, but I'm not sure how old the stock was. Those open pegs are haunting me...

Did you buy new or used? A used set could be a mix of vendor codes and it wouldn't matter which one I send you. I was hoping to get home today but it will be noon tomorrow before I get home.

I purchased all SAE & metric, standard & deep, at the same time from the same buyer. aside from the part number on each socket, there is an upside down "G2"

The G2 is what I was looking for. If at all possible, I'll pick ones that have that same code. It always nice to have all the tools in a set match.

I will get home about noon central time today.

Okay travelin man, I'll wait to hear from you. On the ones that c-man no longer makes, I'm wondering which other brands at least look similar to the ones I have, I will use those to complete the missing pieces

It took a while to sort through ALL those sockets. I've got about 8 lbs of the 1/4 drive. Ultimately, I didn't have a single one of the sockets you need. However, I did have a 4.5mm shallow in my personal set and I'd be happy to get rid of it. I have my sockets on a rail so no worry about gaps. Plus, it drives me nuts to have half sizes in my set especially when I won't use them. If you want it, you can have it for $1.50 shipped. That will cover the cost of shipping and a bubble envelope.

I'll write down your list, and dig through my box shortly. I may have something. :) I got a bunch of loose single Craftsman... Not enough for a complete set, but maybe I can complete someone elses! :)

Good POINT (lol) I need 6 point on these...
