S&R Breaker Bar, Flex Socket Drive Handle Set 3/4 Inch with Extension and 3 Sockets 17mm, 19mm, 21mm, Rotary Push Handle 600 mm, Extra Resilient Ø 22 mm Shatterproof - Industrial Quality

This 600mm long, 3/4" jointed drive handle (also known as a breaker bar) provides the high torque needed to undo very tight or highly-corroded / rusted nuts or bolts. A 3/4" drive, 125mm extension bar and three popular-sized sockets, 17, 19 and 21mm are also included. Automotive applications are probably where this kit will find most uses but it would also be a great addition to any engineering workshop tool kit due to it's build quality and rugged construction.Certain jobs, such as the removal of stub axle nuts, sub-frame bolts and over-tightened wheel nuts etc. require a very large initial torque to break the hold of the joint. This kit is ideal for these types of applications and offers a positive and safer solution without having to resort to attaching a length of metal pipe over the socket drive bar to increase the leverage !All of the parts are made from high grade, chrome-vanadium tool steel, known for it toughness, strength and wear resistance. The outer surfaces are also plated with a layer of nickel which prevents rust forming. The six-point contact sockets provide additional strength and minimise the risk of splitting when subjected to very high forces. One-of-four, grooves in the internal (female) 3/4" square drive section of each socket, locate with a spring-loaded, detent ball fixed into the external (male) square drive. This allows a socket to be connected in any of the four possible ways. The extension bar has only one locating hole, so it needs to be aligned correctly with the drive handle. Once connected, both parts are held securely together but can be easily separated by pulling them apart, allowing sockets or the extension bar to be quickly changed as needed.In addition to breaking the hold of threaded fasteners, this drive handle can also be useful for applying a final torque setting (after using a torque wrench) by employing an 'angle' or 'yield' tightening method where the bolt or nut is turned by an additional angle - often specified when refitting subframe components to a vehicle. It would also be possible to use a 3/4" to 1/2" socket adapter but care should be taken not to exceed the reduced torque capabilities of both the adapter and/or the connected 1/2" drive socket, as this S & R drive handle can provide a substantial amount of torque, so it's advisable to always use 3/4" sockets and extension bars.To test this drive handle out, I've used it with and without the extension bar to undo a variety of nuts, some of which were initially tightened to a torque setting of 145 lb-ft. The amount of available leverage and firm grip from the knurled section at the end of the bar, made this task relatively straightforward and moreover, very safe knowing the socket wasn't going to split and suddenly release the drive handle with the potential to cause an injury.Disclosure: A complimentary sample of this product was provided for testing.

I thought this was a bargain. I don`t like the spring in normal 1/2 breaker bars even with a plastic handle on my snap on bar undoing a tight wheel nut can hurt your hand when it cracks off. You know the real tight ones that have been gunned up like the life has been squeezed out of it.This is well made, heavy enough and strong. A good deal with the extension and three sockets. Time will tell how good it is but I cannot see it breaking or being any problems.It isn't a Koken 3/4" bar or similar by any means but it is a fraction of the price. I wouldn't get put off by the length 600mm, you don`t always need a 1 metre bar.I would like to compare the 1/2" with the more expensive brands but I have no need to purchase another.

Nice quality

My new favorite tool, removed 38mm hub nuts, these required a huge amount of force to loosen. I had previously broken an 1/2" extension. This extension is well built and can take a lot of abuse. Subsequently used for smaller nuts that where seized and rusted.

As a former farrier/blacksmith you don’t look at metalwork, you feel it for quality and finish, this bar is substantial and feels well made. I’ve not used it yet but due to its heft I get the feeling that I will break before it does.

Very strong, not the longest bar but would do everything you need. Will last a lifetime of looked after. No need for a longer bar, just use a pipe if you need extra leverage.

Heavy duty and well made! that's what I need it. you won't be disappointed on this heavy yet well made tool

Very good quality, heavy. All as described

Parece buen producto

Super Werkzeug schnelle Lieferung guter Preis!!

Von der Robustheit ist dieses Werkzeug in 3/4 erstmal gut, man hat richtig Eisen in der Hand. Leider ist die kurze Verlängerung nicht ganz maßhaltig gearbeitet, dass diese nur mit sehr viel Geschick und Kraftaufwand in die mitgelieferte Nüssen rein passt. In ein Reduzierstück auf 1/2 Zoll von BGS passt es nicht rein. Man sieht, dass die 3/4 Zoll Verlängerung am Antrieb nicht gut bearbeitet ist. Am Gelenkschlüssel ist der Antrieb aber in Ordnung, so wie es sein soll. Ich werde es aber nicht zurücksenden, da ich es selbst passend nacharbeiten werde und ich schon das zweite bestellt habe. Bei der ersten Bestellung habe ich einen Warehausdeal bestellt und ein 1/2 Antrieb mit Zubehör bekommen, stand auch außen auf der Packung drauf, da ist wohl was in der Lagerhaltung durcheinander gekommen.Verkäufer hat sich kulant gezeigt, und einen Nachlass gewährt. Vielen Dank für diesen Service.

Se volete un prodotto di qualità a un prezzo giusto allora comprate questo articolo.Ho comprato questa barra da 3/4 con degli adattatori per usarla con bussole da 1/2, non c'è bullone o dado che resista, per quanto sia saldato dalla ruggine o dalla copia di serraggio con questa barra ce la farete e senza fatica, e senza che la barra si pieghi minimamente.... La consiglio per uso professionale, come consiglio vivamente i prodotti di questo marchio, ho diversi prodotti loro e mi trovo benissimo, e gli uso in modo intenso.

J'avais besoin d'un bras de force pour desserrer la vis du cardan pour changer mon roulement, j'ai pris cette clé de 600mm avec ses 22mm de diamètre, j'ai mis des photos pour se rendre compte de la taille de cette clé, j'ai ajouté une autre montrant la douille réductrice car moi même je ne m'attendais pas à un carré de cette taille pour pouvoir utiliser les douilles d'1/2, donc j'ai du acheter ce type de douille je suis allé directement chez un marchand de matériel automobile sur Tourcoing car je ne pouvais pas attendre sinon j'aurai commandé cet article qui est du même genre 'BGS 275 Force Adaptateur 20 mm (3/4 ") intérieur sur 12,5 mm (1/2)" extérieur Je suis complétement satisfait, cette clé en chrome/vanadium m'a permis de desserrer sans difficulté cette vis.
