GEARWRENCH 39 Piece 1/2" Dr Standard/Deep Impact Metric Socket Set | 84948N

To be clear, I have entire sets of snapon and mac tools. These tools were purchased to supplement our off-road/travel sets, which are often "Borrowed" by folks you do not know, when they are not smart enough to haul basic tools 100 miles out into the desert. And to my point; I did not expect much...maybe m-force or p-max from nards, to maybe balt from downLow. Some folks swore by them out in the field, and promised they were a cut above building center junk.Much to my surprise, we ended-up using most of these tools on our recent trip to Moab...blown top-end on one machine, due to a failed intake connection, exploded front diff on another (we just removed it and ran rear-drive for the rest of the trip) and mostly, tools either work or they don't, but these actually feel good and give great range of motion in tight spots. As did the flex gear wrenches. There were times where if I wasn't actually looking down at the tool in my hand, I may have mistaken them for my snap-on sets. I know Snap-On guys/mechanics (which I'm not) don't want to hear that crap but, it's true. I'm a career HVACR tech, and use many of my mechanics sets in my profession, and I AM a home mechanic that has been a motorhead for 58 years and have always spun my own wrenches building my own machines, and I know good tools when I feel and use them.All that said, I'm now impressed enough to fill-in the missing pieces of this set, with more gerarwrench. I currently have the 1/2" full impact set, the full 3/8" impact set W/Swivels, full metric/imperial flex wrench sets, as well as the full flex 1/2 and 3/8 flex ratchet and socket sets, the specialized fastener bit set, and several other pieces. Not going to stop until I have them all. Quality affordable tools man, to be sure of it. We often hear that said and later decide the tools work, but are otherwise crappy. These are NOT those tools. I can see these lasting a lifetime. Definitely what I will leave locked in my motorsports trailer. And if someone steals them?...wont hurt as bad as thousands of dollars in Snap-On!A safe great buy, when comparing quality to the big-boy professional sets. Definitely buy these, and save some serious coin.

Strengths: Construction, finish, feel, heft, laser+stamp engravedWeaknesses: Why no 25mm ?Recommendations: Absolutely recommended if you want a great set of 1/2 impact metric socketsNotes: GearWrench has become my go to for tools with the fall of Craftsman. Kobalt was made in the same factory as one of the big two (Mac or snapon) like a decade ago, but no longer. I started out life with buying one of those 100piece sets from kobalt almost a decade ago, and that served me well. Recently though, I bought a big red 44" tool chest (always wanted one) and needed to fill it with all the sockets I could ever need, in every size, with no gaps. Because I wanted to. Not for any crazy project. After cruising Garage Journal for weeks, I settled on GearWrench and became hooked. I own this set, the 1/2" SAE set (which goes completely sequentially without skipping any), the 3/8" Metric and SAE sets, the 1/4" set, and a full set of their 120xp in both flex head and straight shaft (hehe). Probably going to buy the crazy allen wrench/security fastener/whatever set as well.The quality of GearWrench as a brand is far and above what most big box stores sell. Sure you could spend as much as you would on a new truck buying from Snapon or MAC, but these are great. I have a full set of Snapon tools at work (I'm not a mechanic) and to my amateur hands, I can't feel or tell any noticeable difference in them.Highly recommended

Awesome set. Never broke a single one yet.

Love this set and they work great!

Boy some solid stuff for the price

Gearwrench is a good brand and these work as intended but they won't hold up to all day shop use just like their wrenches

You want premium sockets without paying your house away from the ice cream truck and creepy man stalking your shops like snap on? Gearwench is the best when it comes to a premium brand that's affordable. And these sockets, they so smooth, they so nice, they so.... Thick... And best of all, they haven't shattered on me and can be beaten like your roudy clapbox Chevy! Gearwench ooooyeeeeaaahhh! I love you muah!

I read a lot of the reviews before choosing this, and all I can say is always take amazon reviews with a grain of salt..My sockets arrived all in place, none rolling about the case. Case arrived in great condition with all clasps closed and unbroken. Sockets were not sharp as others mentioned and were fully cleaned up. Sockets had some oil on them to prevent rust in storage the normal for tools.All and all the sockets look fantastic, no scruffs or damage and smooth. Will work perfect for me and working on my vehicle.Compared to some brands these are higher priced but always remember you get what you pay for and gearwrench is worth the money even tho it isn’t USA made it’s still quality tools.

Der Versand war wie immer vorbildlich.Das Produkt kann ich persönlich nicht empfehlen.Der Hersteller verspricht Chrom-Molybdän-Stahl mit extra Korrosionsschutz.Das ist bei dem mir gelieferten Produkt leider nicht der Fall.Die Stecknüsse wurden eingeölt geliert. Nicht auszudenken wie die Stecknüsse ohne Öl aussehen würden.Ich bin ein großer Fan von Gearwrench Werkzeugen.

These are perfect. I would call myself an advanced DIYer, and I decided to upgraxe to a name-brand socket set with a lifetime warranty.The quality of the sockets is amazing. They are heavy and strong like impact sockets should be. The set barely skips any sizes, and the lifetime warranty is the cherry on top.Actually no, the cherry on-top 8 is the fact that these sockets are not only laser engraved with the sizes (which can be rubbed off over time in tight holes), but they ALSO INCLUDE LARGE ENGRAVED SIZES as a backup. I will use my yellow paint-pen to fill in the engravings and rub off the excess.VERY happy with this socketset, which is my first name-brand one. I will be saving up for the standard and impact 3/8” socket sets and the standard 1/4” socket set from GearWrench next, as well as the extension bar sets.I would recommend this to anyone who is a serious DIYer or a professional who wants something quality but not snap-on or tool truck brand expensive. Gearwrench is owned by Snap-On and simply sells their older designs for a lower price once Snap-On retires them. So those saying GearWrench does not provide quality tools are misinformed.

Is a very good pack for impact gun, all socket also have carve size mark.

Well made!

Having researched socket set brands I narrowed down between GearWrench and Sealy.GearWrech seems the professional choice people go for and I went with brand in the end. These sockets are robust, well made and the entire set is heavy.Fits straight on to my dewalt impact wrench. With no issues.Pricey but you are paying for quality tha will stand the test of time.More the happy with my investment and happy to recommend.
