Tools from the old world

[Moose-LandTran]

Marktplaats indeed

Ah! I bought a number of special out of production Hazet tools from a guy called Cor on Marktplaats. Great site, and great seller. I found a whole bunch of tools i'd wanted for years and never even saw for sale anywhere else.

Marktplaats indeed

Looks like a wooden crate opening tool.

I think there is not such a problem to exchange it.Some german tool companies do not have great quality control.......I have bought a gedore 1/2 socket set and came with 2 same number sockets.I am still waiting for a responce after one year.....[emoji35] [emoji35] [emoji35]

My friend and I have encountered this kind of problem several times. Hazet, Garant set with the wrong socket, Several Knipex with the handle installed in the wrong direction. A PB Swiss driver which says Torx on the handle but with a PH tip.

In my opinion Facom has the best quality control of the European manufacturers

Reilang Precision Sprayers

Have you used? Feedback?

I'd like to get one to spray some parts with a light coating of oil.

There are several here (I've purchased several of the Reilang oilers from Jens but can't don't know anything about the sprays. And there's very little info. Some are "precision micro sprayers" and some are termed "precision liquid sprayers" -- what's the difference? I presume micro sprayers spray a very "micro" area of a part or piece of machinery. Do the liquid sprayers spray a much larger area?

http://www.jensputzier.com/Reilang-Oilers-and-Pumps/Sprayers/

One of the drawbacks (and it's a minor quibble!) of Jen's website for me is it's difficult to tell the difference between the various Reilang models.

As for spraying a light mist of oil on a part (say anything from 2"x2"x2" to something 12"x16"x8" these mightn't be effective?

I understand that Wurth made (or rebranded) a German-made model of "sprayer" that had the seals that could hold up and allow one to spray a light mist of non-detergent oil on a part.

Thoughts on these Reilang? Tempted to try one out.

Solingen Germany is in fact very well known for cutting steel production. Whatever blade has Solingen Germany written on it better watch your fingers

 

[Waltc]

Made by Stahlwille or other manufacturer?

I have sets by Hazet and Gedore that are almost identical except for the colours. The holder is also the exact same. I think they may all be made by Rennsteig but open to correction.

Anybody able to tell me where Gedore adjustable wrenches are made?

 

[dutchgray]

IDK about current Gedore adjustables but my older 4" & 6" both say Germany on the handle.
They are nothing special.

 

[Precivilization]

Anybody able to tell me where Gedore adjustable wrenches are made?

Mine are made in China, I don't know if all are made there though, I suppose there are ones made in Germany and elsewhere? Depending on the market in which they are sold.

OMG after Carolus brand moved to China Gedore seems to be heading East.

I think we need to stop buying products when they are not made in the country of origins

Interesting fact; zippers on jeans carry a three year warranty by law in holland. My jeans rarely last that long but if the zipper ever breaks you can have it replaced free. I have yet to find someone that has done this.

That´s a great idea ! It should be a law everywhere ! And it seems it would be a good idea to introduce a 3 year warranty for jeans too

Anyone have a decent drill bit sharpening solution readily and affordably available this side of the pond.

nice german power tool collection !

Mine are made in China,

What are the "official" (and/or best) pliers to tighten these clamps ?

edit:
It seems the Hazet/V.A.G. tool is the right one for stainless steels clamps since they are difficult to squeeze i read...

...

Yep, you want the one with the little moving anvil in the middle. That properly flattens it out. The name, as you likely know, it Oetiker clamps. Oetiker makes a couple grades of the pliers.

 

[Moose-LandTran]

What are the "official" (and/or best) pliers to tighten these clamps ?

Hazet 1847-1 is what i'd use from what you've posted, although the pair i actually have are a set of KD ones i bought used on eBay.

Same as these but mine has red handles:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/KD-Tools-...743432?hash=item1a0c9caa08:g:lgAAAMXQDnpTYTus

They work better than any others i've tried (inlcuding Lisle/Snap-on.) and i use them a lot at work. I use them on all Oetiker clamps including stainless ones.

The VW ones you posted are used with a torque wrench to prevent over-crimping, but i've never had as issue with my KDs and i'd never bother using a clamp crimper and torque wrench.

 

[superautobacs]

I use either the standard Lisle 30800

or the offset Lisle 30600

The standard type works much better than the offset.

 

[Moose-LandTran]

I use either the standard Lisle 30800

I've used those and absolutely hated them. Maybe it was just the particular pair i used?

Those offset ones look useful though, might look into them. Good for steering rack boots.

 

[Superbec]

damn, I'm the only peasant who uses end cut pliers ...

 

[rice rocket]

The ones that came in my Oetiker kit are basically dulled end cutters. I'm pretty sure Knipex makes 'em for Oetiker, the design and finish are near identical to all my other Knipex products.

Perhaps? I've never had any issues with the standard type.

I find the offset ones that I have to be designed poorly on the business end. With the handles fully closed, it leaves just enough tension on the band clamp to prevent it the gator from spinning.

Lisle products = a hit or miss.

I remember trying to crimp an Audi CV boot with them, and two 24" breaker bars. I don't know why it took so much force, but it just about did it.

Then 2 days later the boot came off because they crimp didn't have enough tension. Never had a single issue with my KDs.

Sounds like the offset ones need a little tweaking. If i get some i'll have a look into that.

Witte Allen Keys / Hex Wrenches...

...though three of them have Inbus on them

I Just realised I always thought hex and inbus were the same thing.

So googled it and according to Wikipedia the y are. The name change a depending where you are:

The term "hex key" has various synonyms. Some are explained by the geographical and commercial history of the drive type's development: these include Allen, Unbrako, and Inbus key or wrench. The synonym zeta key or wrench refers to the sixth letter of the Greek alphabet. The term hex-head is sometimes used to refer to this type of drive, but this use is not consistent with its more conventional use referring to external-wrenching hexagons.

In the fastener industry, the terms socket head or hex socket head are generally used for the driven part of the driver–driven pair. A less common synonym is female hex.

So possibly the stamping differs from market to market? And you got a mixed market set?

Allen key is the name used and owned by apex tool group according to Wikipedia

Inbus = Innensechskantschraube Bauer und Schaurte ("inside hex screw Bauer and Schaurte") ("Bauer und Schaurte" was the german manufacturer of these screws and the trademark "Inbus" became the synonym for this type of screws in germany)

In holland too.... Ask anyone for a hex or Allen key and the look at you funny.

Ask for an inbus and you'll get one. Albeit probably whatever the standard ikea size is [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

Inensechskantschraube.... Gotta love German words [emoji6]

I did not know that was what inbus stood for. Thanks Monty!
