they dont have dropforcing technolofy in their factory so they are welding the turned shaft to the cnc machining the head , i\this is inferior in every way and is in the long run much more costly.. they should spend a little money for some closed forming dies and forge the tools the proper way like the german tools are done. they would save alot within just one year

I have a matco 3/8 ratchet ( BR11F ) that I have been using for just over 30 years now. Flex head, not locking. It has been a great ratchet. The head has some wobble in it now, but continues to function fairly well. I would love to get the pin fixed, maby warranty it if possible. Can't find a place to send it. Any info would be great thank you.

I wonder why they like doing that friction welding over just making it out of one piece of steel. I think Snap-On makes theirs out of one piece of steel but I know Matco and Mac Tools make them in two different pieces and then friction (spin-weld) the two pieces together.
@jacksmith2315

Ratchets are made by Armstrong . Yet another rebranded tool . We call Matco (Rebrandco) at my shop. We search Amazon before we step on the matco truck and usually find the same product for a fraction of the price . One day mobile tool trucks will be no more .... That day will be sooner than later

Yeah, Matco is Rebrandco. The Cornwell truck carry's about 35% Cornwell tools and 65% other brands. Mac is almost the same. Snap on will eventually be the only one standing. If that's the case, if you think Snap on is expensive now..........

When I was in school Marco gave me discounted tool prices. The problem is that it takes 6 to 9 months to get anything. I will never by another match tool as long as I live. They told me I was no longer in school and asked for notes from my teachers and college to verify. Impossible company to deal with. I told them I hated them and their service I would never buy from them again. They did not even try to stop me or make it right. Be careful if you are an aspiring tech. MATCO SUCKS!
