I don`t actually work on the big equipment. They were cheap and I have a couple plans/ideas I may use them for.

What size is the largest one? How cheap? Can you take a pic with a soda can or the like for scale? I picked up a ~2.75" a while back at a garage sale and use it as a pencil holder. I can't imagine those if that one says 4.625" :scared:

I picked up my HF44+side cab today. I had pre-built my new top for it already. Just need to bolt it down and glue the aluminum flat bar around the sides.

Picked up these off the truck, the two 19mm sockets for VW crankshaft pulley bolts, the 9mm for VW clutch plate bolts and the 10 for general removal of rounded stuff.

The extractors are on special, got them for £160 all in, retail is in the £300 region.

Snap On adaptor set and seal remover set.

"Note to self" Hpozzuoli. Do NOT use those adaptors on an impact.

Bad news: a co-worker thoguht it was a good idea.
Good news: he had to buy me a new 1/2" to 3/8" stp down to replace it--yep, that's the big one on in the big slot.

Lesson learned.

It's stamped on the side and should be heeded.

BTDT.

:)

Not sure this will show on the pic, but it says "warning non impact"

Yes it came out nice and clear, I guess one just has to read and understand what it means :) Glad you got a replacment!

LOLZ. Ha.


"I" knew the warning and heeded it, but Captain ******* co-worker did not in his haste to get a job done when borrowing.

Share tools, share epic ******* failures to those you lend them to.

It'd take a 1/2 keg of good beer to share 1/2 my tool stories.
Jeebus.

LOL.

Dude thank you soooo much. I thought it was impact because its black finish. Btw do the make an impact one?

You would think Snap-On with be above making non-impact tools in black oxide. That's a bummer.

I recently bought one of those. It's odd that it says that and is black oxide. My dealer told me it said that but also said I could go to town with it and if it needs replaced he'll replace it no problem as they don't make a step down impact adapter


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Huh. I have a Snapon 1/2" to 3/8" adapter in black oxide. its from the late 80's and I thought it was impact. But I have only used it on a breaker bar as far as I remember.

Yeah they used to make a black oxide one that was for impact. Now the one that looks like it should be actually says not for impact use


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The old step down adapters were one piece. I though that was the purpose of them making them 2 piece now? The square driver part should break and Snap-on is passing the cost off to the customer on the replacement of the square drive part when you twist it off?

The new 1/2 breaker bar has the replaceable square drive part too. Figured Snap-on got tired of all the replacements and figured out a way to either pass the cost off to the customer or help keep people from doing stuff they KNOW they shouldn't be doing with these step down adapters.

I bought a chrome set like that from Snap-on a dozen years ago. All 1 piece. I have used them on impacts, but I don't get crazy with it either.

Wright Tool Part# 466 1/2" drive 6PT shallow metric socket set. These were not advertised as imapct (On Amazon) but that's fine with me, they work just as well on ratchets and my Snap-on 1/2" drive deep wells are impact too. Plan on selling the Snap-on's and replacing with Wright.

after a year of trying to get a tool guy to stop by the shop and having both snapon and matco ignore me at the corporate level, ran down a matco truck the other day and now he's stopping by weekly, made his first stop yesterday, and I've got more on order.

Broke my phone and have to use a stock photo, sorry, but saw these for 0.99 and figured why not. I always thought they were kind of gimmicky but, the 1/2 already worked better than i thought it would.

Those wright tool pouches look nice enough on their own.

Serious question; what is the purpose of these vs. just using the ratcheting wrench they go into? Sears Outlet has a bunch of these for like $10.

I have a 1/2 nut that is in a recessed hole that you have to come in from the side.
i have tried every thin profile i can get my paws on. The only reason i grabbed them is because they were in a fish bowl at the checkout for 0.99, and i have thrown a dollar away on dumber. I just happened to remember that pita nut and thought, hey maybe. $10, no.

I think the biggest one is around 6.5". All 3 sockets were under a hundred bucks total, including shipping to me. (The largest one weighs over 50lbs by itself. USPS hated me)

Here are a couple more pics of them.

Is there a particular reason you are switching suppliers?

I don't wrench on other folks bikes for cash any longer. For what I sell the Snap on stuff for used I can purchase twice as much new Wright stuff. Another reason is I moved 37 miles South of my original location and it's out my Snap on dealers area. I can't get the new local dealer to stop at my house.
Wright tool is also down the street from my day job, I always try and support local family owned business's.

Here was my latest purchase. Just got it from Toolwarehouse.



Also picked up a couple new sockets, Problem is they don`t fit my impact gun... There is over 100lbs of sockets there.




I want to see what kind of bolt or nut those huge sockets go on and then see them being used. You can get those in your top drawer right? And what's that power probe? Never seen that before.

You could use it for gasket making. I thought it was kinda cool so I bought it. :thumbup: Seriously, for about 9 bucks plus 20% off (veterans discount) I figured I'd use it when I need to work on some really small stuff.


I bought the 10 or the 12oz and love it. I might just go back and get that little one. Just kinda cool. Fun for really intriquit or tight jobs.

Sunex Tools 2646. I bought this on Amazon for $150. This impact sockets are heavy duty and on par with Snap-On in quality. Save a lot of money in your pocket.
