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

The materials and construction are great!

Seems a little pricey but seriously...look at the money some of us guys spend on organizing our tool drawers. Some will spend $100s - $1000s on the proper brand with custom foam to which I reply (publicly) I would never while (privately) wondering how I can swing the change to get my sockets to sit at the correct 10 degree angle awaiting my call to duty. A little off topic, I suppose; but, my point here is that if you just want something to hold your sockets you can find that elsewhere for a few $ less. However, it looks good, is thoughtfully designed, is adjustable to your needs, sockets are held securely by the actual spring loaded ball bearing in each clip, and...did i mention that it looks good? Olsa: If youre interested...Get rid of the description of durable socket holder made of quality material. Seriously, any tool at HF can and probably does use this description. Most of us have been bitten by this claim in the past. Conversely, I suspect your typical customer is pre-programmed to believe that anodized aluminum is one of the coolest materials on the planet. Highlight this feature. Overall, Im very happy with the socket rail.

Best socket holder set I have ever owned! I love that you can easily remove either of the rubber ends and slide off the individual socket holders so you can customize to match your set if you have a mixed socket set. They have a slot for optional wall mount but I chose to keep them in the drawers. Highly recommend to anyone looking to clean up and organize their sets!

Order: 2x Red 3 pack for my SAE sockets. Color: Fantastic, bright (definitely not pinkish). Bar: Very sturdy and sockets retention is strong My biggest complaint is I feel ripped off on the clips. You can order a single bar or a 3 bar set, but both options only include half the number of clips each bar has capacity for. As you can see from my picture for example the 1/4” bar will hold 36 clips pretty easily. You can buy clips separately from OSLO but they are quite costly. So why does each tray comes with roughly 1/2 the amount they can hold? These clips are very inexpensive to manufacture, very inexpensive. Including so few clips is a major disadvantage for those of us who have larger tool sets. I have +60 sockets for each size so it’s either pay for extra clips or buy another 3 piece set, which I ended up doing. Love the product, hate the price and package combination options. $13 for single bar with a few clips, $12 for just a few clips, or $26 for 3 bars with a few clips each. Touch choice for me and even if you bought a small socket set, which usually includes it’s own organizer. At the end of the day I’m very happy with the look and very impressed by the quality. If I didn’t know for a fact that those clips cost less than $0.30 each to manufacture I’d flip over backwards for this product. Unfortunately the seller’s choice in grouping/packaging the items leaves me feeling much less excited about the purchase.

I bought a set in blue and a set in red. Im torn, because a part of me wishes they were 2-3 longer. Then another part of me wishes maybe they were 1.5 shorter. Longer to fit more sockets on them, shorter due to the layout of the toolbox drawer. Something to be mindful of. The hight of the rail + the clips + my deep well sockets (Husky circa 2000) are too tall to stand the sockets up, forcing me to lay them over eating up valuable drawer space. I have a 26 Husky toolbox. If I had a larger toolbox my gripe about how short these rails were would be pointless (as those are often deeper) and the sockets would likely stand up due to the drawers being taller. The quality, the fit, the finish all nice. There is a part of me that wishes the ends werent just rubber boots, but something a bit more study. I ran a socket on and actually knocked the rubber end off. Some hard-plastic with a small set screw would be perfect! FWIW, I did end up dropping a loaded rail. All the sockets stayed on!

I cant give this a 5 star rating, but there is one engineering problem with this - the end pieces are little rubber blocks, this is fine and dandy with 1/4 inch and maybe 3/8 inch sockets, but with 3/4 inch sockets, well they weigh a bunch more and those wont hold them on. So if you tip it, the sockets may fall off of the rail. It doesnt bother me for my use, but I have had them pop off of the rail several times now. It may get annoying for other folks who have to handle the rail more.

I use the socket rails to organize my tools at work. They work as they should with no issues.

These have no equal on the market. Completely convertible to hold whatever mix of sockets you want by changing the individual clips, and the ball bearing clips make getting the sockets on and off easy, but the sockets will not fall off. They are literally perfect for the application.

These are the best socket organizer I have used. Easy to attach and detach. Multiple colors help to organize even more. Metric on one color Imperial on another makes finding the right socket quick and easy.

The only dislike is that its a little to short to hold a full rail of 1/2 drive sockets. Needs to be 2 longer. Thats it.
