Any of you have their locking extensions? Thinking of getting a 1/4 and 3/8 set.....

 

[unslow1]

I just picked this up at an auction along with a bunch of other tools. I don't think I have a drive for it. Anybody know when it was made? It's 1/2 drive. What do they call this style of ratchet? I typed the number in Google and it comes up with modern ratchets.

Circa 1976

Nice condition, especially considering its 37 years old.
Is the patent number stamped on bottom of the ratchet ?

 

[Kev442]

Yep. Says: USA PAT. NO. 2232477
Hopefully that triples it's value!

Ok . I'm trying to figure out when they stopped stamping the pat #s on them, when they switched from 'sk tools' to just 'sk' and when they switched from satin chrome to black oxide on the drive plug assembly.
Thanks.

If that was local to me it would be in my garage already.

I have the 3/8 set. I like 'em.

Thought it was time to resurrect this thread.
I picked up a Kennedy 28" mid box to add to my S-K 2 drawer machinist type box and 22" Kennedy mid box to expand my S-K tool collection out some more. So to do that I had to empty the first two boxes. This does not include what I have in the small, medium and large socket set boxes. I'll try and get some pics of the boxes when done and an update of the socket boxes.

Try to show my S-K 47155 : (it's 3/4" drive)
Worked! Next to it a generic 3/8" hinge handle

S-K Defiance, Ohio plant, just before it closed forever:

That's awful.

You should sell me a good 1/2" ratchet.

 

[amac70]

those 47155 are beasties:

looks like yours is marginally better finished though...

and the SuperKrome extension is even sturdier lookin' than the breaker bar!

 

[MagnumForce]

I feel like I she looks go take some pictures of the SK defiance Plant crumbling to pieces 3 blocks from my house. It is a sad sight.

 

[chopper1]

Two garage sales turned up some more S-K goodness this morning. SAE and Metric hex sockets sets. A couple flare wrenches and some 1/2 & 3/8 sockets, 1/2" rat, couple boxes and a 5/8 combo.

 

[cosmik binturong]

that Dowidat breaker bar looks way out of place.

PM me and i'll send you the address of the official Old Dowidat Tools Disposal Unit.

My first SK purchase...

SK Hand Tools 33990 Impact Universal Joint

 

[chopper1]

Some S-K I picked up this week.
3/8 ratchets:
roto head
<SK> 45175 [7.5"] & S-K73175 [10.25"] both Facom era
45174 stubby

S-K Wayne metric combo set, missing the 12&8mm
S-K Wayne 5/8x11/16 short DBE

 

[Steinmetz]

It's a home made job. Made from an SK magnetic bit driver.
I picked it up at a garage sale a couple years ago from on old man.

********************************************************
I forgot to post my extra sockets and universals.

I have a set of those S-K 1/2 deep sockets. They have a drive hole extending laterally through the upper portion of each socket, and came suppled with a small drive bar that could be inserted in the drive hole.

 

[Sam'sAutoParts]

Some SK and SK Wayne I bought off eBay this week, just got them today. How cool is the box of impacts!

 

[theamcaddict]

Did SK make combination wrenches with the diamond logo?

I have ratchets and breaker bar that have the diamond logo.

sent from my Moto X

 

[davethorik]

chopper1, if you find any more green translucent handled screwdrivers and decide you dont need them, let me know! same with the roto ratchet!

 

[Sam'sAutoParts]

Another Score, I just received in the mail today. SK 3/8" socket set with fine tooth 45175 rat

 

[davethorik]

Nevermind on the roto...I finally picked one up. It is also the SK in a diamond logo which makes it a bit older iirc. This one has some chrome wear but everything works a-ok. Nice and tight unit. I paid a little more than I probably should have ($38) but I am pleased with it, and more importantly I wanted it. And it matches my Diamond S-K 45170 nicely

 

[Sam'sAutoParts]

Very nice, I like that ratchet davethorik I think I need to pick one of those up eventually.

 

[theamcaddict]

8" locking extension and a 43875 ratchet. The store had a ton of old stock.

That finish wasn't chrome originally. The diamond logo was dull and not the smoothest. Does it match your other pieces closely?? And that price isn't bad at all!

 

[Sam'sAutoParts]

Wow, that 43875 rat is sweet

 

[panknuckshovel]

So far just one wrench, guess how i got it.

 

[Sam'sAutoParts]

lol....I just got mine last week, I had actually forgotten all about it until it showed up.

 

[panknuckshovel]

The 20mm that I received definitely made the decision on which set of metric stubbies to get.

 

[Sam'sAutoParts]

SK wrenches have a great feel to them, I love mine! I have a SAE long set and a standard length MM set, plus the 20mm stubbie.

I am in the market for long pattern combination wrenches. The prices you can get the SK one for are very attractive.

How long did it take to get the promo wrench?

 

[Sam'sAutoParts]

I think it was just shy of two months to get mine.

A roller cabinet made by Waterloo in March 1974 badged as a S-K tool box. Owned by a civil engineer in my area. A Craigslist find.
