W =F * d. According to Newton. More accurately, torque = r*F*sin(theta)

Quote from YT851128 :
its bouncy when I hammered it on a rusted in bolt exhaust, it hit my face and broke my glasses.

use a torch if you can, before trying with these.. the longer it is, the easier to round the bolt.
What? How are you hammering it?

I prefer the pro version with the rubberized grip that is a step above this model. The Pittsburgh pro usually hovers at around $13 when it's on sale. RealToolReviews on youtube did a comparison of the pro series against the snapon/matco/mac breaker bars and the results were surprising.

I would imagine if you are breaking these trying to loosen a nut that you ought to invest in some nut buster rather than a longer pipe. I dont own this but im interested.

Loosen some nuts, then break some nuts

Not when this breaker bends like spring and your effort is used to bend it instead of turning the bolt. Ask me how I know...

Correct. Pro version is worth the extra money over this junk.

For the price, this is amazing. I have used my HF breaker bars for quite a few years and it's still great for the home mechanic. I accidentally stripped some lug nuts and used the breaker bar to twist and shear the lug bolt off. Always position yourself in a good position to break your fall/stumble if needed. Even expensive tools do break and that's just good common sense so you don't hurt yourself.

Put me in the galvanized pipe camp. I haven't broken a ratchet in 20 years of wrenching, and it's one less tool to keep up with.

Just make sure you have a second ratchet on hand...

Quote from JOSEPH.A.THOMAS :
harbor freight is about the lowest quality you can buy
This is a foolish and misinformed statement. Harbor Freight sells some stinkers, but also some great stuff. The Earthquake impacts are Snap-On clones for a fraction of the price and actually surpass Snap-On in performance. Don't listen to guys like this that don't know tools. Look up objective facts from testing.

"One less tool"
"'just make sure you have a second ratchet on hand..."

Why not have a tool that's better for the job?
Ratchet + Ratchet + pipe = 3 tools
Ratchet + breaker bar = 2 tools

For those using pipe (me) and breaking ratchets (not yet), you can get $5 off a new one at Harbor Freight with a no expiration date coupon and it'll have a lifetime guarantee. (Slickdeals thread)
