Duralast swivel sockets

[rshimizu12]

Just purchased a set of Duralast 3/8 Swivel sockets. They were only $26.99 and have a lifetime guarantee. I like the sockets because they have pins instead of allen head screws. The allen head type are weaker & the screws come loose. These sockets are made by Apex tools and are identical to the Craftsman at less than half the price. I have some of the Craftsman swivel sockets and are very happy with them.

The Craftsmans, like many brands and I assume those Duralasts too, can become pretty floppy, but nothing that can't be improved upon with some o-rings.

Where did you get cool colored o rings?

Where did you get cool colored o rings?

Not sure exactly where. I buy locally and online. I keep around many sets of o-rings in SAE and Metric in a variety of different types, rubber, buna-n, nitrile, silicone, etc. When adding them to my swivel sockets I just wanted to use different colors for the metric and SAE.

Duralast has some really nice tools and they’re surprisingly affordable.

Can you apply AZ discounts on tools?

All these duralasts are made by apex/gear wrench right? It’s surreal that we have simultaneous threads for and against it.

They are mostly all Apex. Most of the tools mirror Husky at Home Depot.

I just bought a 1/4" and 3/8" Duralast composite ratchets that recently came out. They scream GearWrench. 90 teeth, perfect balance, turning them bolts like a hot knife through butter!

Yes. You can use Rewards on tools.
