Best Socket Adapter? 18 BRANDS: Milwaukee, DeWalt, Makita Gold, Ryobi, Hart, Irwin
Рет қаралды 2,156,164
3 жыл бұрын18 BRANDS TESTED: Milwaukee, Dewalt, Makita Gold, Makita, Ryobi, Hart, ARES, Neiko, Irwin, TEMO, Bosch, Performax, Torquesmith, Hercules, Hyper Tough, Warrior, Bauer, and Masterforce. In the first test, socket adapters tested for maximum strength until failure. In the second test, socket adapters are used on an impact wrench and maximum clamp load force is measured. Do socket adapters with “impact zones” perform better than those without impact zones? Do socket adapters with longer impact zones reduce “impact” force that’s delivered to the fastener? Let’s find out! No sponsors on the Project Farm channel. It's all about unbiased testing. Hope you find this video helpful.

It's not just KZfaq, as many KZfaq channels' content varies from person to person. PF content is legitimately no exception and is highly useful with testing, legitimate data, and time efficiency of each video he puts out. He dedicated his channel from experience and whatever gets him started from his heart, he'll put it out there. He saved a lot of industrial workers time so that they can get the best tools to work with by the various tests and various tools that PF utilized with in comparison to each brand. If it wasn't for this channel, I would somewhat be buying the average tools and others, but I seek for the best tools.

My understanding is the impact bits with “torsion zones” are designed for the bit to last longer in its useful life span. Meaning when you’re using the bit to fasten nuts/bolts, or remove them, the bits don’t undergo this kind of extended even torque you see in the video, rather they experience momentary shock force, that drops of rapidly. Those torsion zones are there so that the bits don’t twist over time or multiple uses, but are rather designed to absorb the momentary shock and snap back into original shape. They’re not designed for high constant torque applications, but rather many, many, many smaller momentary shock torque hits. So like if your driving a million deck screws - that’s where these bits shine, they will survive longer without twisting over time.

I very highly agree. I want speed insert, good fitment, drive speed and balance. On the back end good edge retention always makes a big deal. It is very interesting that he's testing them in inverse which is probably the best way to save 1,000,000 hours... I think objectively this video is just a steel composition comparison for nightmare testing. I think he's actually peering pretty deep here.
@BigBear-- Жыл бұрын
@@Ihavetopoop718 i agree with most of his testing methodology. In particular the tests involving bit edge retention and head strength over use/time. My only complaint is regarding the claim that the bits with "torque zones" are compositionally weaker under constant high torque application. That part the bits with torque zones are not designed for, they're designed as a system to survive longer the repeated hammer hits from hammer drivers as you're putting in lots of repeated screws (like deck screws) with lots of small momentary repeated torque blows from the hammer mechanism, acting like a spring and snapping back slightly after each hit - thereby not putting in a permanent twist to the bit, and protecting the head and teeth (Phillips, Torx, etc.) from damage. They're not designed for high torque applications like bolts that needs to be torqued to 150Lbs with a slow turn of a torque wrench or even an Impact Wrench...in this case obviously the thicker the better.
@ConcernedCitizenPPCA Жыл бұрын
Well you have to admit testing these to the point of failure does give you some indication as to overall durability. Just look at how the DeWalt ran away with the title in the test which counts most... For use with impact tools that generate less than 2000 inch pounds... Which is coincidentally where the bit snapped.
@BigBear-- Жыл бұрын
@@ConcernedCitizenPPCA I agree...I grabbed some of those just to have. But still, there's a reason they design them with these torque zones, and its not for ultimate steady state torque strength, but rather repeated multi-use. So would be interesting to see them tested against each other within those parameters.
@jamesandrews4746 2 жыл бұрын
Thanks for another super useful comparison. I picked up a Snap-on 1/2" to 3/8" adapter, after my Craftsman twisted off, due to their superior image. While it did not twist off, the square section is now loose in the socket part. These adapters are often useful when a deep socket is needed and it would be nice to know which work well.

Great video! It seems that when it comes to your reviews of bits/adapters/etc., Husky and Kobalt are often omitted. As those are staples at Home Depot and Lowe’s respectively, it would be helpful to include them as well. I recently had two Husky socket adapters fail on me, and I would have been interested to see how the brand stacked up in your test. Also, it might be interesting to do a re-test of these adapters to see how they perform in extreme cold, moderate cold, and warm weather, as many people keep them in their un-heated garages and work trucks year-round and might benefit from knowing which brand(s) are better suited to working well when cold.

No. It assists in applying the right torque, instead of getting the full load of torque immediately. Torque limiting extensions are the gold standard in tightening lug nuts because real people in the field will destroy the tool and parts they are working on if you give them the full load of torque immediately.

@@ProjectFarm The shock absorbing in the longer bits has nothing to do with it being an impact absorbing section, it's purely down to length. Try driving a 600mm screw with an impact driver: you'll get absolutely nowhere. If you use a regular drill, it'll go in no problem. More material means more springyness, which means less torque transmission.

PSA time: Timely video for me as I recently had a Milwaukee 1/2" adapter (not one that you tested in this video) shatter like a couple of those tested in this video. It was on the end of a Dewalt impact and I was setting larger (36mm) nuts/bolts for a beefy home workout rig I was assembling. I spent an entire day fastening dozens of nut/bolt combos w/o any signs of a problem. Then, the next day, I grabbed my 36mm socket and popped it onto the Milwaukee adapter once again and pulled the trigger to make sure everything was seated. As I did this, the adapter snapped against the resistance of the palm of my hand holding the socket (read: not much) in an explosive way like a couple of those tested in this video. Because of how I was holding the larger socket with my off-hand & was pressing the drill towards the socket, this jagged part of the adapter basically tore into my hand for a couple of rotations at the base of where my left trigger finger meets my hand. Due to the sharp and jagged nature of the failure point it chunked up a smaller section of that area down to the bone. Needless to say this was a painful mess that took me out of commission for a while. It's been a couple of months now and the area is still pinkish in color and is obviously still repairing and susceptible to damage. Moral: be VERY careful of using these sorts of adapters. I'm not sure the thinner gloves I normally wear would have saved me but it likely could have helped. I would suggest wearing some durable gloves whenever you're using these types of adapters because even if you feel you're using them in a relatively safe manner will below their rated limits... bad things can happen. Be careful folks.

I'm almost always the first guy to glove up and wear eye and ear pro. Almost. This was one of those rare occasions where I didn't and I learned my lesson in a painful way.

You have become my go to for tool reviews, I just broke 3 husky adapters driving in 3/4x5” lag screws. I know I should have probably been using a impact wrench like you say but didn’t have one at the time. I was wondering if you could start including product numbers , so many of these tool companies make so many different variations. Love your videos please keep it up. Funny side story about this, I’m getting older and my elbow has been bothering me a lot when I use the impact all for a long period of time so I was mounting a truss to hang a video wall from. I bought the M18 fuel Surge Impact, well I couldn’t wait to try out my new tool on this but it couldn’t handle it. It would get them started but wouldn’t drive them past there. One of my guys has a regular and 18 nonfuel non-brushless he tried his and it drove home in a little better but still stopped. I told someone to grab my old cobalt XDR just because I was curious I couldn’t believe it when it drove all the way here not once but 32 times each time I thought it was a fluke and go back to the M18 just to see if it was that one but no, I was so made that I just paid all that money for an inferior tool.

Yes I gave it a thumbs up and No I'm not a hater.
