The SO website also says it protects from Rust. Purple Power or Simply Green does not claim that.
Absolutely. For super heavy grease I find it effective to use another wipe And then to use the 1920 wipe To get some of the rust off and protect from Rust
I looked into this and went as far to get a quote from local Cat dealer. The angle head wrenches were approximately $30 less a set than Snap-On. The ratchets that Cat sells are also the older technology and not the Dual 80.
I'm surprised the angle wrench sets were only $30 less for you, my "local" CAT dealer website shows prices $250-$350 less than Snap-On's website depending on large vs. small set. You are right about the ratchets, they're actually Williams ratchets which use the 36-tooth design. One ratchet (468-5748) on CAT's site is indeed a Snap-On branded Dual 80 but for whatever reason they charge more than Snap-On does for the same ratchet.
Let me see if I still have the quote. I did it right after I saw the post about it. It was all online, so maybe actually going there may get a different price. My quote came from Foley Equip. in Piscataway, NJ which is the closet dealer to me.
I'm not seeing any metric set from my dealer (Cleveland Bros.) on their site. I have heard that dealers sometimes do have different prices but I'm surprised to see them this far apart.
Wow. I'm going to check that out.
Yes. I had to create an account in order to get the price and put it in my cart. Quite honestly, I found their site to be pretty difficult to search for tools.
The angle wrenches are definitely Snap-on, if you look up that PN on Google Images you'll see pics of the set which are marked USA and identical to SO except for the CAT logo.
Gotcha. Thank you!
Those are the same as my Mac Tools set.Are these the same as what is sold on tool trucks? Sure does look like it…
I've got two Snap On and one Williams T handle. Both are great. Not sure it's worth the extra cost, but the knurled shaft of the Snap On are a nice touch. Williams does not have that.
Pretty sure they're blue point not Williams.
I don't see a chrome 1/4" shallow set, but the individual sockets are available in 12pt and the parts numbers range from 9S-1711 to 9S-1719 for 3/16" to 1/2". There is a 6 point deep 1/4" SAE set which is 213-9965.

Does anyone know who makes this for Matco? The sockets are a little shorter than comparable sets and can be turned with a wrench.
Matco SBIT31-G
