Tekton Impact Sockets, Roll Marked Sizes Or Not?

[cavalry]

I found a thread here from nearly 4 years ago that Tekton had started roll marking as well as laser marking impact sockets. Looking at their site I see a couple examples of this, but the bulk majority of impact sockets pictures appear to be laser marked only. Have they just "not gotten around" to updating their site pictures after 4 years or is the product offerings?

Every single socket I clicked on has both markings.

From the site:

Two Size Markings​

The size is marked in two ways on every socket—both as a high-visibility laser marking and a permanent stamped marking.

Thanks, non rollmarked sizes would be a deal breaker for me. Maybe someday they will update their site lol. Just about every set shows non roll marked sizing, or maybe its just how they have them in the case?

The site info says and shows both markings on all the 3/8" and 1/2" impact sockets. I am guessing the pictures of sets just look better with the laser side showing.

Contact customer service and see what they say.

Well ****. I wanted to pick up a 3/4 set. I'll have to contact them.

Ah, that might be the show-stopper then. The info now makes sense,
as Tekton is quite above average with correct pics of their products.
Price and warranty are perhaps worth the trade off?

How's that for a size marking?

Looks like they are, just not real consistent on location. Here's a pic from an eBay listing:


The old generation definitely were:

I like Wright tools and if for me I would consider them. Unfortunately these are going to my boys, Tekton is nearly a 50% savings when they lose them.

You have call them for current production stock marking details, they did have stamped sizes on larger SAE set they done but I think current socket only 3/4 drive is just a mass of large laser etching & no stamping .
They don't really have a lot of 3/4 options, I would be looking elsewhere for taiwan made set at potentially even better cost saving .

You can get a cro-mo 27pc set with proper stepped down shouldering, relief cuts and pin retainer ring groove for around 200
