The difference between 3/4" and 19mm is literally splitting hairs. For that reason, many combined sets will skip the 19mm.

Looks like it skips 10, 19, and 22. There are standard size equivalents for those but I would find that very annoying personally.

I have owned their 3/8 socket set [amazon.com]and can vouch that they are made of decent quality and hold up well. They are impact rated but are Chrome - Vanadium. Highly rated impact sockets are Chrome - Molybdenum. Paid $12.60 then and are a dollar cheaper now.

Nah there's a 10, it's just on the 1/2, not the 3/8

Id pass on them as they're Chrome vanadium which is more brittle and not the best for impact sockets more so hand sockets. Chrome molybdenum (chromoly) has better impact resistance and strength than CR-V, so it is better Suited material for impact sockets.

I was going to pull the trigger, then noticed the missing sizes. I can't believe that there is no 5/8" socket for either the 3/8" or 1/2" drive.

It's cheap Chineseium but I've got another cheap brand off Amazon and works great, I use them all the time on my Milwaukee 1/2" high torque impact wrench.
CR-V STEEL- Chromium-vanadium steel (symbol Cr-V or CrV; 6000-series SAE steel grades, often marketed as "chrome vanadium"[1]) is a group of steel alloys incorporating carbon (0.50%), manganese (0.70-0.90%), silicon (0.30%), chromium (0.80-1.10%), and vanadium (0.18%). Some forms can be used as high-speed steel.[2] Chromium and vanadium both make the steel more suitable for hardening. Chromium also helps resist abrasion, oxidation, and corrosion.[3] Chromium and carbon can both improve elasticity.[4]... not what you called it at all

"Warranted against defects in materials and workmanship for the life of the product."

I wonder what that means. If the "material defect" shows up by using it in a 1400 ft-lbs impact, was it my fault or the material? Will I get a new socket?

FYI these are made in Taiwan not China. Big difference in manufacturing.

I have yet to break a Taiwanese made impact.
