Eric is a huge Cubs fan and yes, he will talk about the 2016 World Series unprompted. When he's not explaining why he's the only person who should be allowed to drive, he's spending time with his wife and two children who tolerate his dad jokes with impressive patience.
I can’t find anything that says what they’re made of. Are they CRV or just a low alloy steel?
Good questions, I will see what i can find. If I can find out, I will shoot you an email.
I just looked at the packaging it doesn’t say what they’re made of ( my guess would be chrome vanadium) they’re made in Taiwan. I’m not a tech but I fix my own stuff when I can. I’ve used these twice now and love em. First was on an airbag on my 7 year old semi. Pretty impressed the open end broke loose the mounting bolts with no slippage. Today I replaced a power steering hose on a 20 year old pickup couldn’t get my line wrench on it had one of these milwaukee wrenches kinda cockeyed on the fastener and got it broke loose with no slipping.
I also have a semi (with over a million miles on it) the first use on mine like the other guy was an airbag fastener. I used the open end just to see how it preformed. No slippage whatsoever on a part bolted to a frame that lives in the upper Midwest with the salt and sand ECT. My next project was a mudflap hanger had a little issue here. I tried a longer inferior wrench ( all of this is cockeyed on the nut wrench at an angle) it slipped. So I got the millwaukee. And dust to it being shorter it was very tough to get leverage. HOWEVER! I put a much bigger box end over that millwaukee to add leverage. Even though the wrench was not on the nut correctly and I had to add leverage I had no slippage. Great wrench!!
I am a tech for TLG Peterbilt. I have expensive tools but I am a milwaukee guy at heart. These wrenches are superior and in my professional opinion better than snap on because of the price. I do wish they had stubbys but im sure in time they will. Also I will add that when you need to cheat a wrench for leverage, buy a wrench extender much easier and faster and safer to use for u and your wrenches. The new sockets are also amazing and go great with these wrenches
