Comparison Force 41421R-9 vs Force 41421R

Number of hex sockets included in the tool kit.

All end heads are accessories for a collapsible tool; during operation, they are mounted on a ratchet, wrench or other similar device. The head itself has the appearance of a characteristic “cap”, which, during operation, is put on a bolt, nut, etc. This design, among other things, allows you to work with parts located in recesses and some other hard-to-reach places that cannot be reached with open-ended, captive or split keys. And compared to a set of classic socket wrenches, the holder plus socket set takes up much less space, providing almost the same functionality.

As for the 6 faces, this type of socket head is the most famous and widespread, because. most modern nuts and bolts have this shape.

Working size range of hex sockets (see above) supplied with the kit. This parameter allows you to evaluate how the heads fit the dimensions of the fasteners with which they are planned to be used.

Number of dodecahedral sockets included in the tool kit.

Specifically, the 12-sided type of socket heads is considered more versatile than the hexagonal one: it makes it possible to work with both classic hexagonal fasteners and, in fact, twelve-sided ones. In addition, to hook the next face, it is enough to rotate such a tool by only 30 ° when rearranging (whereas for 6-sided nozzles this figure is 60 °, and in cramped conditions there may not be room for this). On the other hand, 12-sided parts are quite rare, and when working with hexagonal parts, the contact area is small, which increases the risk of stripping edges and reduces torque.

A distinctive feature of impact screwdrivers is a thick, massive handle with a heel for striking with a hammer on the end. The principle of operation of such a tool is as follows: the tip is inserted into the fastener, after which the customer strikes the platform with a hammer, and the impact energy is partially converted into rotation of the tip. The impact method of work is useful when the slot is dirty, where the screwdriver has to be literally driven in, it is useful for dealing with old, stuck fasteners that are “too tough” for a regular screwdriver, and also allows you to achieve a very strong and reliable fastening, unattainable when using a regular screwdriver.

Such tools are practically indistinguishable from ordinary screwdrivers - the only thing is that they are made of high-strength materials, and the rod goes all the way to the end of the handle, which allows them to withstand hammer blows.

The total weight of the tool kit. Indicated with a case, stand or other storage/transportation device (see Tool Storage). First of all, you should pay attention to this parameter if you plan to often carry the kit over long distances — the lighter the weight, the easier it will be to do. At the same time, extensive sets inevitably turn out to be weighty.
