I bigger sizes most of our sockets are proto impacts. I'm guessing its 3x that now. AEAdam Well-known member.

Snap on 1 2 inch ratchet

Snap-on continued to improve its sockets throughout the s and beyond, although the pace of change wasn't as rapid as it had been in the s. In addition, numerous cosmetic changes were made to the socket styles, giving the sockets an updated appearance every few years. In addition to the improvements in socket construction, the number of applications for sockets expanded greatly, and Snap-on offered a much greater selection of sockets. Sockets were offered in shallow and deep styles, and with hex or double-hex and sometimes double-square broachings. The introduction of air-powered impact wrenches lead to a need for special impact-grade sockets, and the growing use of metric sizes required special sockets. One of Snap-on's most important innovations for the s was the development of their high-strength reversible ratchet mechanism.

The only thing that holds ratchet head or square drive end on is a roll pin, and yes the ratchet and breaker bar handles interchange. But the Tekton tools the son has bought has held up well.

I'm not afraid of the price for the right tool for this application, and while I have avoided purchasing SnapOn tools for a very long time, I am considering going that route for this particular purpose. So to recap, long ratchet needed! If I could get an impact drive in there that would be the way to go for sure, but by the time I add a swivel and extension the impact looses far too much torque to do any good. There is no clearance to either side of the nut to where I could come in at a different angle with a different type of tool, a shallow or deep socket would not make any difference either. Of course you will get Matco warranty service if you have a dealer, but the Dual 80s have beefier heads.

I have a Snap-On locking flex and it is a game changer for me because I can put pressure on nut with it locked with one hand and a wrench with my other hand. CR Well-known member. I'm not sure if it will meet your needs but, look at what Tekton just released. Tough pill to swallow but the thing will last forever except for gear kits and replacement handles. I have yet to see one of either broke in the 5 years we have had them.
