Great price, but very odd to use a 1/2 inch drive on such small sockets. You gotta be very carefu on the 8-12 mm swinging them with a 1/2 ratchet so you dont snap them.

might be why they're so inexpensive but I personally use both a 17mm and 19mm on my car/minivan lug nuts.

btw, this adapter set is only $5.44:

I was about to bite on this deal since I need 1/2" deep metric sockets for my new dewalt 891, BUT I realized they stopped at 19mm. Don't need 8mm for such a big drive, wish they had gone from 12mm-24mm and skipped the useless 11mm and below.

Great deal, but on the smaller side.

No doubt. For the price of a cup of coffee they are still a great buy.

10mm and 8mm are pretty popular nut sizes nowadays.

And most impact wrenches are 1/2".

So it makes sense to start a 1/2" kit at 8mm (especially if you are servicing a rusty portable generator).

The HF Pittsburgh deep 1/2" impact set starts at 10mm, and costs $35

It might cost you $5 for just a 10mm 1/2" impact socket alone......

An 8mm head is only an M5 bolt. It will be destroyed using a 1/2 impact on it. The entire reason i mentioned that the sockets are too small to be used on 1/2 drives.

Do some research.....
No, you should not use a 1/2-inch impact wrench on an M5 bolt.An M5 bolt is a very small fastener (5mm diameter) that typically requires a tightening torque of only 4 to 6 Newton-meters (Nm), or about 3 to 4.5 foot-pounds (ft-lbs). In stark contrast, a standard 1/2-inch impact wrench is a heavy-duty tool designed to deliver anywhere from 200 to over 1,200 Nm of torque. Using a tool of this size will instantly shear the head right off an M5 bolt, strip its threads, or snap the fastener in

If you are looking for the sets in store, they are probably in one of the clearance sections. In both stores I went to they were in the clearance section, one in the front, and one in the back of the store.

I use an impact on rusty 8mm head bolts all the time.

Once you have been turning wrenches for a while, you can feel when a fastener is so stuck that the head will twist off if you turn any harder.

That's when the hammering of an impact is called for. An impact wrench is not just for high torque; it's big advantage is that the hammering shatters the rust holding it frozen. Using short blasts; 90% of the time it will break free without damaging the fastener. The other 10% of the time, ya got to torch the MF.

Practice using the shortest blasts of hammering, it's a skill worth having in the rust belt.

Found in store on the clearance rack, Warren NJ. A few metric sets left, more SAE. I like the case these sets come in. Bought both versions for the same price these were on sale for just 1 recently.

Pros don't use a 1/2" impact on fasteners smaller than 15 mm, especially on 8 mm bolt. Stick to a 3/8" impact if you wrench all day for a living. A 3/8" roto head ratchet can reach difficult locations without much effort [unless you're playhouse Pee Wee Herman].

Small severely rusted fasteners or those treated with red Loctite are most prone to breakage. The most effective solution is to apply heat to break the bond, then use a Vise Grip to remove the fastener.

The HF deep impact set {10 mm to 32 mm} was $20 a few weeks back. It's still reasonably priced today at $25. Regular impact is only $18. There are many HF stores in the US for quick exchange if defective.
