Tool Measurements (Wiki Thread)

[T45]

Ok folks, please take a minute to contribute.

This thread is to compare dimensions of common handtools.

Ground Rules: Please note each of the following.

1) By type.

2) By Brand.

3) By Vintage.

4) Published vs Empirical/Measured.

5) Units of Measurement.

6) By weight (optional but helpful).

What is the goal of this comparison? Is it for personal inquiry or something more elaborate?

What is the goal of this comparison? Is it for personal inquiry or something more elaborate?

It is to help compare tools of various brands and regions of manufacture.

People often need to solve ver specific questions or want to generally compare tools for fitment purposes. Other folks are also interested in storage solutions for tools. In these and other cases it makes sense to have some of the basic tool dimensions available for comparison.

There are also some interesting nuances when you compare published specs vs actual and monitor changes in production over the various vintages.

These are examples of tools that have good engineering specs and data available

Please feel free to post up other data if available. Not all brands will have this info handy.

If we can also get the mainstream USA brands up that would be great

Craftsman
SK
Snap-On

etc

 

[T45]

Then we can finish up with the Mainstream Euro Brands

Facom
Stahlwille
Hazet

etc

 

[T45]

We can start with the main hardline tools:

Combo Wrenches (S, L, XL)

Sockets (Drives, short, deep)

And then add major specialty verions if people would like (Flare Nut or what not)
