1/2-Inch Drive Aluminum Socket Organizer | Professional Quality Socket Holder (Red) | by Olsa Tools

Title says it all!

Not too much to report here. It holds the sockets well and they are easy to remove, and the quality appears good.

Very high quality. I wish I had spent money on these instead of trying to save a few bucks. I go to the junkyard a lot. Saw a buddy using this set and thought it was super secure and sockets dont accidentally pop off when theyre being carried around in a bag. I lived with the old press fit ones for decades, used the twist on kind for a year. Decided to buy this and ended up buying 3 more right after. Perfect and would keep buying and recommending these. Stop being cheap.

While these may seem a bit pricey, they are definitely high quality! The rail itself isnt flexing/warping after loading it up with a bunch of deep sockets. Every socket latched into place very nicely -- not so hard that you struggle with it, but not so weak that youll have to worry about them falling off. I know someone else said the rubber end caps coming off easily was a negative, but Im going to consider it a positive -- I swapped a few clips from SAE to the Metric set, and this made it possible to do so. I havent had a problem with them just falling off on their own yet. The sockets do slide pretty easily on the rail, but they only slide when I push them, not on their own. I will definitely be purchasing some more of these, now that I have 3 red and 3 blue and have them all loaded up, being able to see what exactly is left of the new 311 piece set I just bought. My only complaint would be as someone else mentioned -- itd be nice to see different combo packs sold, like (2) 1/4 with (1) 3/8, etc. These are too expensive to buy a bunch of single rails to complete your set; I may as well just buy the combo packs of each again.

Ive been using this for about 6 months. I am pretty easy on my tools and dont thrash them in any way. I like the looks of this socket holder but I have found it not to be very durable. I once dropped it from only a few inches and it broke the plastic of one of the clips and bent the rail a bit. For the most part, I dont have issues with sockets popping off however. I also had to put zip ties on either end of the rail where there are little rubber caps to prevent the sockets from simply sliding off the end of the rail as the rubber cap isnt strong enough to retain the weight of the sockets.

I’m not a professional, but I have good quality tools for DIY projects. I’d been using another well known brand name socket organizer, but after several years of use, the clip retention began to fail, and sliding them up/down the bar became difficult & stiff. I decided to try this Olsa 1/2” organizer solely based on reviews, & I’m extremely impressed! Easy, fluid movement of the clips, & the socket retention is phenomenal, holding both shallow & deep sockets very well. Although aluminum, it is rigid & sturdy, & supports the weight of a full set of sockets. I liked it so much I asked for a couple more of the 3pk (1/4, 3/8, 1/2) for Father’s Day!!! The color options are a bonus as I use 1 color for my SAEs, & another color for my Metrics - it helps me organize, & pick up the correct sockets at a glance. Plan to add more sockets in the future, & this Olsa organizer will be my first choice for organization!

The socket holder is well made. The extruded aluminum rail is sturdy enough to hold 1/2 drive sockets without flexing or bending. The anodized finish is a nice touch and comes in various colors. Overall a good product. p.s. the card included in the box says you get 10% discount on next order for subscribing to their newsletter. Once you sign up for the newsletter you get only a 5% discount on next order.

I have 6 or 7 of these socket rails. They work well, except for the larger/heavier 1/2 drive impact sockets. Those fall off sometimes. But they are nice to be able to cut down to the right length and grab a whole rail of your box and bring those over to wherever youre working. No more going back and forth guessing the right size. Kinda pricey considering you can get steel spring clip cheapies for 0.99$ from harbor freight, but the anodized colors are nice for identifying metric/SAE

I bought 3 in 3 different colors all I am able to attach and remove my sockets with two fingers yet hold upside down and shake without them coming off. It is very sturdy and solid feels very good quality. I intent to buy more as needed. My only complaint is I wish I could buy the pegs separately so I can have more or less per bar per my use.

They work but could use some refinement. End caps dont keep sockets from sliding off so if you store these front to back in your tool box be prepared to have to put the caps back on along with your sockets. And storing the socket organizers side to side, they just want to tip over every time you close your tool box drawer. Trying to figure out a way to attach magnets to the bottom of mine, until then the search for a hassel free way to store sockets continues.
