I love that Irwin set. Don’t you have part numbers for them. I’m seeing deferent types and prices that are all over the place.

Those could come in handy

why not through that on the beast with a 3/8″ reducer? variable speed on the impact?

Thought about the after I struggled but then I had to find the bag with my reducers.

Pretty sure it’s rated for power use, I’ve heard boots can get pretty stuck in it under power.

Thanks for the video Jimbo I need to get me set of those for the house we have some Matco ones at the shop or they might be cornwell but either way I need some for the house. Thanks man!

Nice video jimbo. I have the same set, and used it along with a impact to get a fancy lug nut off. So I would say it is impact rated after I got done with it.

I used these last summer when I was building my deck last summer. These r fricken awesome. Work like a charm.

Thanks for the video, I would have drove the boot out socket on there with a hammer and then backed it out with the Beast. 🙂

That would have put it to the test.

I was debating on buy this set at advance auto today. I was helping my uncle replace a stuck thermostat but he managed to strip a bolt before I got there. Ended up taking the whole thermostat manifold off to remove the stripped blot off using a snap-on flank drive wrench but I think this Irwin kit would have been easier to use. Plus I could have used the M12 ratchet.

You can usual get the set and expansion set fairly cheap on Amazon and it’s great to have, you may not use it a lot but it’s invaluable when you need it.

I totally forgot you did a video on theses and had to watch it again. Advance auto has the set same price as Amazon which I was surprised to see.

Good video, hate that the socket keeps coming off the rachet though.

This was an early video lol done before I had a tripod

I’ve used the Irwins on impacts, if you do it right you won’t hurt them. I have a few sets at home, also the Irwin 1/4″ shank ones and the spline ones. I use them quit a bit, at home and at work. We have a ton of the Irwin bolt-out sets in the shop. Customers return them thinking they suck, but the truth is that they typically use the wrong size for the bolt and it slips. When they come into the returns dept I snag them and toss them in the shop.

I also have a set of Grab-Its, those “seen-on-tv” extractors, and they work great.

I had speed outs that didn’t work our so well, never had good luck, the irwins with the shank are nice too I’ve seen those.

Like I said, we get these returned far too often, and most of the time it’s because they didn’t know how to use it. With any of the Irwin extractors you have to use the right one for the application. I’ve been using them all for a long time and haven’t had any issues with any of them.

The problem with those on impacts is that if it does slip and you don’t control the impact, it can shred the fastener and the extractor so you’re in a worse situation.  Doing it by hand you get more feedback and have less chance of damaging something even more.
