Magic Wrench, MichealPro, Olsa, Bionic Wrench, Duratech Universal Socket, Maxpower pipe wrench, locking adjustable wrench, vise grip locking pliers, metrinch, captri tools, griptite GTO Pro, Crescent X6, Snap On, GearWrench. Extractors compared for performance on partially rounded bolts, completely rounded bolts, undamaged bolt, and damage caused by using wrench on an undamaged bolt. Subjective tool durability is rated. Finally wrenches assessed for access to tight spaces based upon size and functionality.
I bought all of the tools and supplies used to test the tools to ensure a fair and unbiased review. So, thank you for supporting the channel.

One thing I would've liked to see with the extractor wrench sets is to see if a smaller wrench could get a grip on the rounded bolt if it is too small.

@grindersandgears3445 Год назад

Yep, was going to comment the same, it's worked for me before with helical sockets on heads that were too rounded off and or rusted away, it also helps to have both an SAE and Metric set to have a better spread of sizes. You have to hammer them on, but if you can get one to go on they'll usually have the bite. You'll have a hard time getting the bolt out afterwards though without a vise. But it was nice to see some wrench type tools tested, there isn't always room to hammer a socket on, but when there is, that's my go to, those helical sockets work great. Pipe wrenches usually do well too, but often times those are too big/bulky to get in there as well.

Love these videos! If space is no issue, my favorite is a giant pair of vice grips with sharp teeth and a crazy oversized tightening screw that acts as long handle. In the past I used a pipe for more leverage, but with the giant long thumb screw it's a complete (although crazy looking) tool.

Going into the store to buy a set of these tools is like going into the store and buying a toilet plunger. Everyone knows you're having a really bad day and you really, really want this tool to work. I had my bad day 3 days ago. After rounding a 10mm bolt while taking apart my turbo, I watched this shootout and went for the MichaelPro wrenches. The 10MM closed end wrench made short work of that rounded bolt. 30 seconds and my day got a lot better. Thanks to Project Farm for giving me the info to help me not waste my time and money!

I am absolutely amazed at what you are able to accomplish with what few limited resources you have at your disposal.

I've made high end tools and when you buy one you're also buying the other 9 that got scrapped during manufacturing too. So that's why the best tools cost ten times as much.

@dogbreath6974 Год назад

@@1pcfred If they are throwing 9 out of 10 tools away, then they should not be in business.

@1pcfred Год назад

@@dogbreath6974 why not? Maybe you think we only made one thing? That was not the case. Every different part needs to be setup and checked. Our flagship product had dozens of parts with each requiring dozens of machining operations. That's a lot of latitude for mistakes to be made. But when it happens we just scrap the part and keep going. That's the job.

That stanley locking adjustable wrench is great. I never even thought about using it on damaged bolts being that it’s an adjustable wrench, but I love it. I’ve had it for probably 10 years now and it’s one of my go-to tools for field work

It would be awesome to see coolers. Best temp holding, best sealed from outside dirt and grime. Over all durability from being slid around asphalt and gravel or dropped out of a truck bed. Is yeti worth the money? arctic? Ozark trail? Igloo? Metal style Colmans that seem to be making an comeback? Would be cool to know as we roll into summer what are best options are for the 4th of July bbq!

@REDBIRD-95 Год назад

I imagine a regular pair of vise-grips would have out-performed all of those wrenches at a much lower price. When I have a rounded bolt head to deal with, regular vise grips are my first choice, as the bolt is already wrecked and needs to be replaced anyway. Another great video, Todd. Have a great Sunday👍

So I have a question. On the wrenches that 'there wasn't enough surface area on the rounded bolt' did you try going down a size to see if they would do anything? I'd be curious to see if that would make a difference.

@CAMSLAYER13 Год назад

Seems like kinda an oversight, obviously the bolt is no longer the same size it came in

@justrelaxing1501 Год назад

That was very well done and surprised me at how poorly some of the premium brands performed. I was partial to Snap-On but after seeing this, I would ask is the price worth it?

@ProjectFarm Год назад

@FahimibnDawud Год назад

I've been telling people for years that Snap-On in just a cult that takes your money, and you just get a cool brand name to brag about! I rarely buy their crap anymore, but I did keep the SO stuff that I already have. Plus you can usually go straight to the manufacturer and get the same tool for 1/10th of the price! They usually get companies like Lisle, Lang, Capri, Trusty-Cook, Williams, etc.. to make their tools and then stamp their own name on it. I've also had a lot of trouble with Snap-Ons customer service, and also their tools like to rust and bust too soon!

@libertarian1637 Год назад

I liked the idea of the DuraTech and actually bought an identical “Husky” branded wrench from Home Depot; I don’t think I’ve used it effectively a single time as like the other Husky adjustable wrenches I’ve used the adjustment just keeps opening up while you’re using it causing you to constantly have to re-tighten the wrenches every time you change positions. In a pinch it’s hard to beat a simple pair of Vise-Grips as they can looses and tighten things, and you can always replace a bolt/nut after words when you have access to better tools. Love the videos as views are actually independent and as scientific as they need to be; this isn’t very common on RU-vid were most other content providers are just about selling product or just can’t be honest as products are either cherry picked and/or provided for free.
