Just curious, what is the most expensive single tool or piece of equipment that Snap on sells? I'm not really concerned about sets of tools, but more a single one thing, is it a Mr. Big? lifts? air compressor? Giant socket?

I saw a tire manipulator for large earthmoving/ ag tires at a shop one day. Got me thinking it had to be pretty pricey.

Somebody posted a 6"-8.5" socket set the other day that was like 45K. I wouldn't imagine that's the most expensive over all but it's the most expensive price I've seen.

Not the most expensive in their entire line, however this one is one of the most absurdly expensive pliers they have.

$200 MSRP

Not only is it 2.5 times more expensive than their regular pliers ($75), but every other competitor to Snap-On has them for a fraction of the price. Even if you do buy it on a truck or industrial rep, it would still likely be more than a MSRP Knipex.

If you're going to get one you may as well get the 11 piece set:

Set Shallow Impact, 6 3/4" to 8", 11pc, 6-Point

$41,395.70 USD


I'm pretty sure Harbor Freight sells that same set for $19.99

In the industries that kind of stuff is used in I'm willing to bet that the price of the socket or set of sockets is rather insignificant compared to the downtime of whatever the socket is going to be used on.

cmon you mean a pair of visegrips wont work. according to some people visegrips are there go to tool :lol_hitti

Verus Pro ~$10K

I found out it does not do a lot what Snap On claims it does for the price.Ford diesel computer work,does not work very on.My Matco dealer has a customer that has tried it vs Matco's new scan tool.Said the Versus Pro does not do everything for the Ford powerstroke computer systems.He works on Ford diesels for a living

Well, my sister's roomates cousin's boyfriends BFF said it so, so there. And he works on them for a living, so it must be true.

My guess would be something in the John Bean line like an alignment system or one of those self changing tires changers.
