This. Lol a hole for more leverage. The ball bearing sets itself in that. Some also have a spring rod you can mount them to your adapter with so the socket doesn't keep popping off.🎉

[@Jihadbearzwithgunz]

Absolutely

[@Presbiter]

Wera tools are the embodyment of a quality tool. They have a next to zero customer complaints to deal with. Wera is the gold standart that you will pass on to your children. They sure arent cheap, but they arent expensive either, because they deliver what they promise and thats nothing less than making the best manufactured quality screwdrivers and wrenches money can buy.

[@ian9toes]

I just got this kit today and made a small but very significant mod to it already. I put a hole under the head of the ratchet so I can store it with the 1/4 inch adapter ready to go. To use a socket I don’t even need to open the main compartment. This is how I went about it. With the ratchet in place I poked a hot straight pick tool down the middle of the ratchet hole. First just left a mark then checked for concentricity and adjusted before making a hole, then I proceeded to make the hole bigger with successively bigger drill bits but by heating the blunt end. I let it cool and removed some melted bits between each drill bit, ending in a 9mm hole that came out pretty neat. The adapter lines up fair perfectly with the bit hole beneath it and I place the smallest Allen head bits in front of it. The main compartment closes properly and can be accessed without removing the ratchet. It basically looks factory, no one without the kit would even tell.

[@DaOneJoel]

I've carried this for years, hands down the best bits I own, and it's still flawless. Top quality.

[@greenmarine5]

Agreed, Wera Tools in my opinion are better than Snap on and Mac and their 1/4" Ratchet can withstand allot of Torque

[@VictorReyes-rc9xp]

As a Plumbing Tech who runs certain service calls in luxury condos and townhomes its very important to have a tool bag that’s not only compact but has everything you need, you’ll look a lot more professional when you don’t need to go back to the truck. Having so many bits in a small frame and an additional stubby screwdriver and ratchet is awesome. That bit holder is also compatible with my impact driver, which is perfect. Means I don’t have to carry bits. They’re all in there. In short I was able to toss the stubby multi bit screwdriver, small ratchet and bits for impact drivers because I got that...

[@FNSICK]

The hole in the socket is actually for the ball detent to get a better hold on the socket.

[@claudyfocan731]

Wera is a German brand that is very common here in the EU. They make great quality tools for people that like to DIY regularly. While not being as expensive as brands like Stahlwille (which is a excellent brand of tools more aimed for industrial purposes. A ratchet set sets you back 300-500€) We have a lot of Wera, Facom and Wiha tools. And yes they are expensive but the quality is evident when you pick them up. My dad (who has been doing technical jobs for 30y in a government intitution) always said: “Good tools are half the work.”

I have the SAE kit that I keep in my general purpose toolbox with my 12V impact. It is an excellent pairing with the impact driver for general around the house work. The ratchet has come in handy a few times. I don't use the stubby driver much. 95% of the time I am using the bits and the adapter and putting it in my impact.

[@d4ni5h]

I don't remember the last time I used neutral on my ratchet.

[@averroesdesign]

One key feature youve forgotten to mention is the Rapidaptor Bit Holder (as you refer to quick release) is actually capable of being put through a power tool such as combi and impact drivers. Otherwise not a bad review for people to get an idea of what comes in the kit

[@Socherbal]

This tool kit is absolutely perfect for appliance repair. Used it to easily disassemble a dishwasher today. Just saying, made it easy

[@robertroberts721]

You forgot to mention that the bits can be directly inserted into the mini ratchet for close quarter work. I’ve had mine for about 2yrs. Worth every penny

[@verblvik]

That hole is their for the detent ball on the anvil. Impact sockets all have them. It's not made at all for more torque, it's made just so the socket will stay on.

[@boston-strong8887]

Great video. I have this set, too. You are right. Totally worth it. I get my German tools at Chad's Toolbox, which is always about $10.00 or more cheaper than, say, Amazon or KC Tools. --- BTW - The regular Philips heads are marked PH. The gold bits that look like Philips are actually marked PZ for Pozidriv screws. They look almost exactly like Philips, but if you look closely, the gold PZ bits have extra lines between the slots for Pozidriv screws - probably made for more torque. I'm guessing.

Own it. Love it. It persuaded me that spending more on high quality tools is absolutely worth it. I've handled Snap-On plenty of times and always been mildly impressed but not totally sold. There is a quiet joy when you put a sorted, quality tool in your hand to do a job. Wera put thought and innovation into what they do then back it with build quality. I only wish I could afford more of their products!

[@koma-k]

I bought my (non-plus) Toolcheck many years ago, and a few years back I accidentally discovered a weak spot: The sliding retainer for the ratchet can easily break if the Toolcheck is dropped "on its head". I contacted customer support to ask if it was possible to get a new retainer/cover (was prepared to pay) - they sent me a complete new holder, *plus* the Toolcheck Plus holder, all for free... sneaky bast***s! Now I had no other choice than to get the screwdriver handle as well 😅 (To be honest, the omission of the screwdriver handle in the original Toolcheck was annoying on several occasions, but I couldn't justify buying the Plus version when I discovered it, so getting the Plus holder for free was a great unexpected bonus). The Toolcheck Plus is my go-everywhere toolset, and fits perfectly in the small back pocket my work backpack. Love the compactness of it for the number of bits, and quality is great. Also, the bits fitting directly into the ratchet is very useful for some cramped spaces.

[@gbaker1a775]

Got it for my brother-in-law for Christmas. I think they make a great gift.

[@andygilbert1877]

Nice set, like you say expensive, but some of that is import duty/shipping etc. Imagine what we pay for Snap-on over here in the UK! I can buy this for £53, around $66. For some trades this would be a great EDC, and it’s size means it’s ideal for a motorcycle tool kit.

[@sBigBear]

You can put a bit directly in the ratchet which is useful in very tight spots. Helped me a lot. Also look how much all the included parts are individually. The ratchet alone is over 20 USD I guess. The bit holder probably also.

[@rtsiii5404]

This tool kit is quite expensive as he said, but it is part of an “ecosystem” where there are different handles, bits, extensions etc that are all interchangeable so i would say that if you want to invest in that “ecosystem” then these are probably worth it, they’re Wera, they’re good, your grandkids will probably use them one day. I’d also say they MIGHT be worth the price if they’re going to be used everyday, if they’re going to be used in hard wear environments, but if you just want an extra or emergency tool kit, buy something from Harbour Freight or maybe Dewalt.

[@sigitasstumbrys5670]

Rapidaptor bit holder has another cool feature- to release bit you need just one hand! First slide outer ring forward, (it holds there), then take bit out with same hand (during that time bit is holded in place by magnet inside). This real unique feature, I like it most when using Rapidaptor with battery powered tool.

[@bikeradam]

The hole in the sockets is to hold the socket to the extension. Line the ball in the extension with the hole in the socket, the ball will pop into the hole she help hold the socket in place

[@wb5mgr]

A: regular price on Amazon is around $75 for the Metric. You can buy the Imperial sockets separately from another vendor for $12 much better value. B: the Quality of this kit is much better fit and finish than anything you’re going to buy at Lowe’s or Home Depot. You’ll be very surprised how much of a beating these tools can take and one of the really nice things about the sockets is that they are relatively thin wall so they can fit into places that thicker wall L cheapo quarter inch socket can’t be used. C: This tool kit is perfect for putting in a checked bag if you are traveling on an airplane and you know when you get somewhere you’re going to need some tools, say your field technician going to service a piece of equipment and you know you’re going to need some basic hand tools but not a whole lot of stuff… I carry a backpack with just the basics like one of these kits and a few other things like a pair of channel locks, a meter and some other small necessities… But this kid is incredibly versatile. I actually have considered buying a second one. No regrets on my purchase which I have had now for at least 6 years. Nothing has broken, still works perfectly.

Let me say after using wera bits in construction, the reason they cost more is the quality of metal used. The bits last way longer then standard bits. It’s only worth the money if your using it often, or just like buying cool stuff. Otherwise buy something half decent and spend the savings on more tools.

[@jetjazz05]

The holes on the socket, that may be for the ball bearing on the socket adapter so theres a really positive connection. Im not 100% on this, but i do have sockets with just a single hole on one side that will line up with the ball bearing on a ratchet or adapter. Also a lot of sockets have little indents inside for the ball bearing to set, a lot of times i see if it has the hole drilled in it those indents arent there. Im guessing its easier to drill one hole than to carve those indents inside the socket. The hole seems to work pretty well, but the downside is youve got to make sure you line the hole up with the ball bearing; if the socket has the little divots typically you can put it on in any orientation.

I work as a technician and I can only see a few bits and a couple of sockets that I would use from the kit. I could easily put together my own kit for half the price and it would work just as well. Thanks for the review to help me reaffirm my decision not to buy it.

[@benneburg]

I don't think you will regret getting a Wera kit. We have one of these at work, had it for some years now, even if we don't need all the things all the time, it's simply too handy. It easily fits in the pockets, none of the parts have broken or gone missing yet, it's a kit that last many years. Wera can be a little expensive, BUT you get what you paid for.

[@KosmicHRTRacingTeam]

Another option is to buy the kit and replace some Of the bits that you might never use with ones that you use frequently. Some might use this for electrical work, some might use in a car as an emergency tool kit while others might use for their motorcycle or whatever. I have a little icon kit that I have done this with and I’d do the same with this kit as well.

No-one uses 13mm?! Erm, 13mm is the standard socket size for an M8 bolt and is extremely widely used.

[@AreWeBeingLiedToo]

lol the hole is for the button on the adapters to click into each socket better

[@beardedreviews]

You're wrong the color code does not match across-the-board
