Neiko 02447A 1/2 Drive Master Impact Socket Set, 32 Piece Shallow Socket Assortment | Standard SAE (3/8-Inch to 1-1/4-Inch) and Metric (10-32 mm) Sizes | Cr-V Steel

Seems to work good when I have used them. Good value for the money.

Seems good so far but only used the 19mm so far but they look well made

They were made in the good part of china lol. Good set for the price

True to size within 1/64”. Bought the standard sizes and it came in the advertised box. I was looking for a set with bigger sizes for working on heavy trucks. For around $40 this set is a great value for money. A comparable set off a tool truck will run at least $200.

Works great

I got tired of looking through my collection of decades worth of incomplete socket sets and decided to start over. With everything made in China and older name brands such as Craftsman etc. turning into utter garbage with flaking chrome, rust etc. for still premium money I ordered these to check them out. I was highly impressed about the quality and measurements and value for the money. Definitely no Harbor Freight quality for one time use. I put one to the torture to see if it would wear quickly or break, but still like new. Also ordered the 3/8 set, and both have a great full assortment to handle almost any size you come across working on things. Most other assortments I found combined matching metric/standard sizes instead of giving you one of each.

So pleasantly surprised and pleased with this set.. Ive only been using them a couple weeks now but they have surpassed mybevery expectation..now the test of time... Quality Durable Attractive All at a price that wont make ya cry.. I would say they could stand their ground with the truck brands.

Strong, durable box, clear numbering gives a job

I finally awoke and realized that using plated sockets in an impact application is a no-no. Doing so not only exposes the underlying metal to the air and moisture, they have the potential to break seeing as theyre made slightly thinner. And once plating breaks off and/or cracks occur, fitment issues are sure to happen. The solution is to use impact sockets, which are treated differently in that they arent plated. Impact sockets are thicker walled and finished in a black phopshate or black oxide finish via immersion baths. They also have a hole into which the retaining pin on the impact wrench can set. The downfall of such a setup is that you have to depress the pin in order to remove the socket after use. Fear not, even with the hole the sockets can be used on an impact wrench with a hog ring. The hog ring is a slightly sloppier fit, but it allows for easier socket removal. Ill admit that I previously purchased a metric impact socket set from Harbor Freight Tools. It was a 13 piece set, and while good, I wasnt fond of the holder and socket markings. Its terribly difficult to remove the sockets from that little plastic holder and even more of a pain to ID the socket you want. I happened to come across these Neiko impact socket sets. They were a little more expensive, but I was open to purchasing them due to the case they came in as well as the laser etched size markings. I did see some folks got a different case, which essentially places the sockets next to each other in a long, handle-less rectangle looking case. I was more interested in the case with the handle, and thats exactly what I received. They overall packaging was great, as each set comes in a cardboard box. The cases themselves arent marked, so I may keep the cardboard boxes to help ID the sets. I dont use them too frequently, so this plan will work for me until the cardboard breaks down. Ill look for label to mark the cases in the interim. The cases are robust and well made. The handle and locking clasps are sturdy. The sockets were coated with a light oil, which may or may not be a remnant of the manufacturing process. They are marked well, and I thinkt the markings are far enough away from a potential nut, say a lug nut, that they wouldnt be obliterated as the socket turns in a deep well. As for sturdiness, theyre as solid as the others Ive used. I tried a few sockets and they performed well. I dont expect issues with them, but then again, I wont be using them day in and day out. I would recommend them for a shade tree mechanic type of person for sure.
