Snap On ratcheting extensions

[Chuck122]

Just wondering if anyone uses them and if so, for what?
Can't figure that one out

I have a couple that came with my snap on torque wrenches (non ratcheting) that I use them on. The 1/2" one is really handy on a big a** breaker bar for those "stubborn" fasteners.

I used mine once.

Before I got a shlf80a.

They seem kind of silly to me.. unless I am missing something?

For the less fortunate like myself, they are quite handy with a beam style torque wrench.

I have those at work. I am not a fan.

I use them all the time although I just tinker around my house and I have them in 3/8 and 1/4 drive snap ons and am waiting to find a nice used 1/2 snappy. I like to use them on t handles and speeders. For smaller bolts and screws.

Seems like it'd be useful when you need to use a beam torque wrench or a breaker bar.

I have a few. The only time I use them is on a breaker bar. Usually with lug nuts or wheel bearings..

 

[HaroRider]

Ah I see what they are for.

That's an adapter. Not an extension. Unless that's what the OP meant

I use my 1/2" all the time. most common use, turning engines when doing timing chain/belts.

 

[Spudland_Dave]

I have a 1/2" SnapOn my Dad gave me...use it quite often actually. One of those tools that looks "useless" but amazingly gets alot of use.
That being said, I dont have a Long handled 1/2" Dual 80...eventually would like one, and when I get one, I may not need/use the Ratchet Adaptor anymore..

 

[Aaron10647]

Mine gets a quite a bit of use also. Any time the breaker bar gets used, its typically on it effectively creating a large ratchet.

 

[mrborohachi]

I use it with by beam style torque wrench for torquing lug nuts

This is it

I have a 1/4" and use it on a 'socket nut driver' thing. I also have a 1/2" which I use on my 24" breaker bar.

These look interesting but I have the older style ratcheting adapters so I am not really tempted to try these.
They are on promo right now though
