Difference between Beta Professional and Beta Easy

[DanEng]

Hi

Anyone knows how to recognize which Beta tools are Beta Professional and which are Beta Easy?


Thanks

 

[Jeff]

I'm quite familiar with Beta tools but never heard of "Beta Easy". I just checked their website and couldn't find a reference there either. Please provide an example of what your referencing.

I think you have to translate the marketing flim flam....

"professional quality at an affordable price" = built down to a price.

"perfect for the DIY or professional mechanic" = won't last as long.

edit - sorry Dan, I don't really know how to tell them apart....

Thanks to all for the help.

The only thing I know so far is that the Beta Easy series is a DIY made in China (or something like that) tools. But I am finding it very difficult to tell them apart just from photos in websites, since some sellers do not differentiate between them. I have only noticed that Easy sockets are housed in completely orange cases. I am hoping that someone will help me out to distinguish between them using the manufacturer code.

Give them a ring Dan, they are only based in Tellford.

Leave it to Monte to find it!

Finding a COO for any Beta tool is almost impossible. Of all the Beta tools I have, only 1 wrench has a COO of Italy, the rest are unknown.
