Titan 16138 9-Piece Low Profile Impact Triple Square Bit Socket Set

I hadn’t even heard of “triple square” sockets until I was watching a video of someone replacing brakes on a VW and I told myself, “Oooo, I need to get some of those”. Do I have a VW? Nope. Do I even have anything remotely German in my Garage? Nope, but I do have an old beer stein that my ex-Mother-In-Law gave me for Christmas one year. Regardless, like any good tool-guy, you buy a lot of tools for things that you juuuust might have to work on in the future so I picked up this set. The tools like very nice, machined well, and just look good—you know how you can hold a tool and tell its inferior? Well these don’t. I’m not a professional mechanic and these certainly aren’t being used daily in a professional shop environment, so I can’t speak to the longevity of these--I’ll leave that to someone with more time on these tools.But, here’s the good part of the story: About a month after I purchased these, my neighbor was working a friend’s Mercedes and came over to my garage asking if I had a tool. Now he’s a handy fellow and has a competent set of tools in his own right, so I was a bit surprised when he was asking if I had something he didn’t. “It kind of looks like a big torx, but it’s not” he says, and I knew exactly what he was talking about. “You need one of these!” I exclaimed like a giddy school girl and showed him this set of bits. He borrowed the set and said they worked perfectly.+5 Man Points for me having a tool my neighbor didn’t and letting him use it, but I guess -5 Man Points for screaming like a school girl. I guess I came out even…that’s a win in my book.

Great quality and cheap. Use them daily.

Good tool for the money.

just what i needed

These seem like good quality but I haven't used them yet . Description was accurate.

I only actually needed the 14 but this whole set was cheaper than the single bit from the auto parts store and the local hardware stores didn’t carry any. I didn’t use it on an impact (lord knows I would have if I could have fit my impact behind the caliper hangar. Those bolts were unbelievably hard to break loose) but I’m sure it would have done just fine on one.I don’t know how often I’ll use these bits, but at least I have them now and won’t have to put a home auto repair off for almost a month if I ever come across the need for one again.One weird thing of note is the two largest sizes have a different finish than the rest. The smaller sizes have like a slightly glossy finish that reminds me of ceramic. I’ve never seen it before. The two largest sizes are your more traditional black oxide found on most impact bits/sockets. No idea if this matters at all.

These essential tools can be hard to find and at $21 delivered quickly im happy

These things are amazing. The design allows you just enough more room than the silver sockets with the XZN bit in it. The fact they're one solid piece gives them the lower profile ability to fit in a little bit tighter spots than other XZN bits. I own a German car and these are a necessity doing odd jobs.

Professional quality.

I bought these to use on an Audi, which at 12 years old the triple squares were solid.My dewalt impact puts out alot of torque, these held up to the punishment and undid the bolts.Very pleased.

Great sockets. Great delivery. Very happy

Sockets were solid quality pieces which I used to remove rear brake caliper holder bolts from a VW.
