Hate fighting to pull small sockets off the flatheads that came in in my Icon and V-Series sets.
In the past I would have recommended a cheap set from SATA [amazon.com] but they dont seem to make them anymore. The Husky having the benifit of easy warranty swap is more appealing now anyway. If I had not already acquired Gearwrech 90T's [amazon.com] when individuals were cheap I would for sure get these.
In other words, if you use them on your car or lawn mower, you'll probably utterly destroy the ratcheting mechanism the first time you put any effort behind it. These are for very low-torque applications....stuff that's brand new, "machine threading" that's very fine, etc.

It is interesting that they give you extra length in a low torque ratchet, though...

Tooth count has nothing to do with how much torque a ratchet can take. That's old timer BS from a time before modern design and manufacturing techniques. Look up the tested failure load for a typical brand name 90+ tooth ratchet, and you'll see it far exceeds what you should be doing with the ratchet with your bare hands.
These ratchets are also not even that low tooth count. They have a dual-pawl 50 tooth mechanism that ought to be plenty robust for an DIYer. They are not "low torque" - every objective destructive test I've seen of Husky's high tooth ratchets gives them solidly midling performance.
Unless you're an untrained ape who abuses their tools this should be plenty good enough for "using on your lawnmower" FFS.

I mean, I don't know how else this "untrained ape" can spell it out for ya. Also, be nicer next time.

You won't see the same phrase in any of the other 100-position Husky ratchet listings.
