Wiha 66992 MagicRing Ball End Hex L-Key Set In Holders, 22 Piece

These are premium tools, they work as expected, they will last a lifetime, the finish is really great no rust whatsoever

Until now, I've been handling hex head type screws and bolts with two sets (one standard, one metric) of Craftsman Allen key fold outs. I still use them in a hasty situation, since you can't lose a wrench since they're all housed in the handle.Anyway, I've been wanting a good set of standard L shape wrenches but with Craftsman fallen from grace, I've been trying to talk myself into either just getting some from Harbor Freight or perhaps trying Home Depot's Husky brand.However, I discovered these on a YouTube video, and since I have a set of Wiha driver bits (which are awesome), I decided to get these last fall, and I am glad I did!!I was a tad disappointed at first, not all of the wrenches in this set has the "Magic Ring" on them. The tinier wrenches lack this feature. So for a time, these wrenches just sat in my tool box. Last winter, I bought a new 3D printer, and while it came with some simple allen keys, I decided to try these.Even though the smaller wrenches don't have the "Magic Ring" on them, they worked WONDERFULLY on the (seemingly slippery) fasteners I had to install on the printer. I didn't round off any fastener heads while using these wrenches, and I even tightened a few fasteners with heavy force. None of the wrenches broke.So I was happy. Then a few weeks ago, I decided to wake my motorcycle from hibernation for another season of riding. The larger wrenches in this set were SO helpful, the Magic Ring is a serious boon if you need to install fasteners by guiding them downward. I have to install a hold-down clamp on my bike's battery, and in the past I've always dropped a bolt, since I have to hold the clamp plate in position with one hand and try to guide a wrench with a bolt on it in the other hand. With the Magic Ring on these wrenches, it turned a nightmare task into another simple task.And finally, I'm starting to dust off some of my old Hobby grade RC vehicles, and have already broken one by bashing it around. Once again, these wrenches really made driving fasteners into/through new parts much easier in comparison to using a standard L shape Allen wrench. If these wrenches are anything like the driver bit set I own, they'll easily stand up to years of hard use with no problems.

#1 key set on the market for function. Wera has fewer keys, costs more, and the holder is not as ergonomic.

This is my second set. But they are the best. I haved used mant different brand over the years and they have never failed. My first set had a small accident so I need a tuff set again.

Came packaged nicely, origin marked Poland, bigger keys marked with brand, size and origin. Nice organizer/holder. Seems to be manufactured to the highest standards. This is just upon arrival and inspection. Durability to find out, pretty pricey, but if you know you know. I’m hoping that the ring holder function on the ergo end is not a gimmick and holds fasteners, well, and lasts.

These are high quality tools...I just simply threw out my old ones realizing how much better these are.

These things kick so much butt. If your any type of technician or mechanic these are the go to allen wrenches. If you've ever used a self starting screwdriver these are the equivalent only in allen wrenches.The magic ring is just enough to hold the bolts in place and not let them get dropped. Very impressed with these.Highly recommend .

Like everyone else who uses hex keys on a daily basis I found myself continually buying different brands trying to find 'The One's'. I know that having crappy ones are better than having none at all, but worn edges in the sweet spots after just a few uses had to stop. Barked knuckles and stripped hex sockets are a thing of the past with the Wihas.This set of hex keys has a very solid locking feel and are so exacting they require YOU to make sure alignment prior to full insertion into the socket is perfect....unlike the cheep-o- brands that could care less how sloppy you use them.The one thing I found about the MagicRing on the L end ball was....the grip so dang good I'm afraid of screwing them up while extracting it from the hex socket for another bite and turn. I'm not saying they feel cheap at all; on the contrary! The ring works so well a little effort is required to extract the key from the socket. So far, I haven't had one MagicRing fail. I guess I'm just not used to such quality after the shoe box full of failed attempts to find a good set.Spend the extra money for the Wihas....they'll be the last set you ever need or want.
