30 Piece Extraction Socket Tool Set | Made in USA Steel | ¼” and ⅜” Drive Impact Grade Bolt and Nut Remover Kit | Turbo Sockets for Stripped, Rounded, Frozen Bolts & Nuts | Nut Extractor Socket Set

For those wondering if folks were still getting the socket rails instead of the case I don't think that's still happening. At least for the master 30 pc set. The blow mold case... it's okay. It's got a proper hinge. Not folded plastic that will break after opening a dozen times. The point of failure will be the front plastic clip. It's meh. On a cold winter morn, in the rust belt, before the garage is warmed up, that plastic clip is probably not long for the world. The socket themselves are beautifully constructed. Proper stamping. Sockets that rely on just laser etchings drive me nuts. My one bit of advice, if you're on a budget, get the 18 pc or 13 pc without worry. Small sizes that this master set covers are so rarely a problem. Brute strength with an anti-slip wrench or vice grips usually do the trick. When that doesn't work I've killed it with a Dewill style extractor (it's bulky tho), or I reach for the Dremel. For mechanics, on a small fastener, with this set in your main box 40 ft away, and your Dremel right there on the roll cart, you're going to grind that sucker off. It's not like your saving any hardware if you use the rocket socket instead, right? I can only remember one time I would have preferred a rocket socket on a tiny size and that was working on the interior of a pristine car. Having said all this, I splurged on the 30 pc, because I could, and for the ultra rare instance of problematic access, maybe worrying about nearby combustible material that the Dewill or Dremel can't handle. The real utility of rocket socket is those larger sizes. Look at getting the 1/2 drive lug extractor by rocket socket if you can. No one is taking a Dremel to a large grade 8 nut or bolt of any significant size. And angle grinders aren't getting into engine bays, hahaha. A lot of cheap extractor sets are out there now with mid tier success, but they wear out, are hit and miss on quality, and still others have inferior fluting. This set is pro quality, equal to or better than the truck sets. You get snap off quality for a better price. And it's hands down better than the Irwin or gear wrench extractor sets. Those sets are good, rocket socket is better because the last thing I want when I start throwing profanity at a fastener, is to use an extractor that works only 80% of the time. That's why rocket socket exists... To help weekend warriors, tradesmen, and pro mechanics with anger management. For it's performance, and price, stick with the best. PS. I don't know the logistics or done a deep dive on the physics of making larger sizes (20mm on up) but if they made a 1/2" drive set to act as a supplemental set to the 30 master set I would be highly interested. Acorn style lug nuts of any size with that slip of crap metal top always round off to an impact socket. Those lug nuts are heinous and should be banned. I'm over using a chisel and trying to be gentle to an alloy rim trying to get those out for 40 mins straight. And if you don't live in the rust belt... The chemical bond of those lug nuts split a snap-on deep well impact. At least I would have another option in those recess lug nut areas where you can't torch (thermal shock) the lug nut because of the alloy rims.

I don’t write reviews but for this product I get it necessary. Was dealing with a stripped out Torx bolt that was preventing me from separating my cylinder head from my block. There was very little clearance to access the bolt. I originally purchased matco Torx and screw extractor sets but they only ended up strip the Torx bolt out even more. I purchased this kit as a last attempt before taking to a machine shop. These are high quality extractor sockets. I ended up using the 17mm extractor. I attached a 3/8 extension and tapped it onto the head of the bolt using a mallet lightly. Then using a 2ft breaker I was able to brake the bolt free immediately. It grabbed and dug into the bolt as I was attempting to loosen it. Once I got it off I was able to remove the socket by securing the bolt and Turing clockwise. The socket shows no signs of wear at all. Would highly recommend this product to anyone in a similar situation.

This kit saved me on many small rounded off/rusty bolts as well as some bigger bolts that the heads twisted off.

Worth every penny. Rocketsocket saved me from having to remove an entire top half of an engine. I rounded off an EGR valve bolt that was hidden between the right valve block and the firewall. As EGR is a heated unit EGR bolts are notoriously difficult to remove (usually seized, and also softened). It was so badly rounded one side had completely sheared off, the head was now more like a pentagon rather than a hexagon. Before Rocketsocket I tried several different bolt extractors sold at local auto parts stores and they only damaged the bolt worse. Once the Rocketsocket bit this nearly destroyed bolt head, it took 3 tries but once it bit, it never let go. The bolt came out so easily I thought first I just sheared the whole head off. But that initial fear suddenly turned to joy when my flashlight showed the whole bolt is out. THANK YOU ROCKETSOCKET!!!

Bought as gift , it was liked . Kind of pricey

I was a professional mechanic ("technician" for the sensitive types) from the early 1970's to the early 1990's. (Opel, Porsche, Mercedes, BMW, Ferrari). The majority of my career was in the "rust belt", so I had to fight rusted nut and bolts on a daily basis. I would have loved to have these sockets back then. Fast forward to April 2021 - I am replacing exhaust manifolds on my 4.6 liter V8 Ford Explorer. Every nut is severely rusted, and cannot be removed with Snap-On 13mm 6-point sockets. There is no room to try to hammer on 12mm sockets. Cutting them off with a cutting torch is an option, but not my favorite option. I purchased these sockets this month and I am amazed! They dig into the nuts. One was so difficult to reach I tried a 200+ ft/lb impact gun. That was not enough power so I switched to a 600+ ft/lb impact gun. Suddenly the gun was turning without any resistance. I thought the socket was spinning on the nut, or the stud had broken in the head. Nope. The socket had dug into the nut and removed it. Amazing! I am a believer. They are not idiot proof, but for a experienced user they are a godsend.

This saved my a$$. Definitely worth it every dollar.

Came in good case and seems good quality. Haven't had to use it luckily. I just bought it since I saw it had a good review on "project farm" YT channel and a good deal popped up on Amazon. Hope I never need it.
