I really like seeing the performance/wear on them as well. I’ve been an appliance tech for 25 years my tools and the money I pay for them are important to me, I’ve bought several tools based on your reviews. Please don’t stop taking that out of your reviews. Thank you for your thoroughness
Nice video! As I know, the 'Impact Proof' depends on the system, means Bit AND Holder. I think, that's the reason why the other bit sets only have the sign for bi-torsion on it. I have the same set and I'm very satisfied with it.
The diamond coating is more likely to be evident on the Phillips-head or pozi-drive bits as they are the ones prone to cam-out due to angle geometry. The hex-bit you tested is not liable to cam-out.
I have wera and pb swiss tools bits here. I was really disappointed by the wera quality, the pb swiss fit so much tighter into quality screws (fischer & spax). Also the normal pb swiss bits can be used on impact tools. It would be really nice to have a comparison video with wiha, wera and pb swiss for wear.
I've got this set, a newer version which came with a Wera Tool Rebels sticker in it, and some velcro for the Wera 2 Go system. The colour of the case is definitely the same as the catalog, and the Impactor Bit Holder is easier to pull out from the case. I bought this to fit into my AEG blow moulded case for the newest Fusion Hammer Drill, and Impact Driver set. Into which it fits perfectly.
It's difficult to determine which bits are the best to buy from Wera. They sell them on Amazon in price ranges from about $9 for 20, to $50 for 15! Hmmm, What justifies this? Are they crushing actual blood diamonds? If the ones for about $.50 a piece are the same as in my bitcheck, then I'm generally very satisfied with their performance, but am interested in any that further prevent cam-out. I thought they made laser etched bits for better grip as well but I'm not finding that.. Would be nice to see some Project Farm style testing with these German bits, especially the Wera variants.
My Wira Kompact ratchet drivers crumble under normal use, it's always the same one, I've tried sending one back and I eventually received a replacement unit, the wrong one but never the less. I found I was thrown the Well it must for your fault card right from the go. (25 years on the tools, qualified electrician) Run my own multi services business and am not impressed. They seem to spending so much on the 'Cool' adverts at the minute.................
A insulated felo bit holder screwdriver was given to me by a fellow friend of mines. Would these bits be considerably worth buying? Or more of a purpose to use on an impact driver?
Who would want to use an impact driver to INSERT a fastener? There's something wrong with the hole if you do. If like every impact driver I've ever used that is reversible, I'd consider a left hand thread is the reason.
Anyone driving long screws, lag bolts etc into timber. The friction and therefore torque required to drive them home increases with depth, and the rotary impact action is very useful in those sorts of application.
I thought they were expensive but $122 is the sale price! I use bits all day and cant imagine why they would cost that much more. I guess they would last for a long time but idk,
First I used normal Wera bits. Last year I bought my first impact bits. The first one start to wear. But thats due to abuse I almost only use inhex 5mm and pozidrive 2
As for this particular bit holder - it's a bit (no pun intended) shitty. Other Wera's bit holders are great, but Impaktor is not robust enough. Bit socket wears out surprisingly fast.
Milwaukee is putting out a lifetime warranty on their impact bits 😳 They are carbide mixed. You snap a pic of the stripped/broken bit. Email it to them and they ship you a new one. So I will be using strictly Milwaukee bits. As long as they honor this warranty. Why would anyone use any other bit...?

I wonder if spraying a little silicone spray inside the groove where the bit holder goes would maybe make it easier to slide in and out.
I think yellow bits are graded for manual impact driver. And black for powered impact driver.
These bits lasts werry long, Wera is one of the best bit and screwdriver manufactoring.
Cool impact bit set, great one dude!

Kamal Tailor I've got the regular set and holder, after using it in a dewalt impact gun for a while the holder has definitely worn out.
@@capnthepeafarmer I haven't had the chance to use mine as yet. Soon though
Must be great having tools laying around you dont need, got anything for sale?
The holder part is missing.

Yeah I’m going to buy them cause they look cool lol
No Robertson bits?
they sell this set for 44 bucks here in germany.
German prices are with VAT, US without even for consumers if you buy from abroads or across states.

which bit Holder for impact bits is worth to buy?
I am a little reluctant to use a 1/4" drive stem for any impact work, perhaps a 3/8 or 1/2" drive shaft would be better....just my opinion.
I have the newer version of this set I bought on sale at basically half price. Not gonna complain about them haha
What impact driver you used?I guess makita?
Yeah it was an older one I had around. Been wanting to get a new one but haven't been impressed with the Metabo or Fein offerings.

Will get one.

@@ghgjftythnhcfghdty I'd normally drill a pilot hole nut I see your point.
Thanks I have been interested in these fora while.
Maybe add some silicone grease 👍
And I don’t have any use for impact bit set damn it.
It sure looks nice otherwise.
Wera and Wiha make great impact rated bits.
On sale now for $122 bucks... 11/15 /19
And you had it for years.. still brand new..?..
Darn......! You must be rich..?.. Lol
I thought they were expensive but $122 is the sale price! I use bits all day and cant imagine why they would cost that much more. I guess they would last for a long time but idk,
Impact means impact driver. Not an impact hammer drill...
Expensive review
First I used normal Wera bits.
Last year I bought my first impact bits.
The first one start to wear. But thats due to abuse
I almost only use inhex 5mm and pozidrive 2
Most used length is 50 mm and 150 mm. For some occasions I go to the 98 mm bits out of the Kraftform 50 set
The diamond coating should be only on the tip of the bits (for better hold of screws) !!
As for this particular bit holder - it's a bit (no pun intended) shitty. Other Wera's bit holders are great, but Impaktor is not robust enough. Bit socket wears out surprisingly fast.
$65.98 at amazon. The case has been redesigned. ToolBoss did a review on it.
Torx not hex 😅
had one for years, bits are still perfect, bit holder is absolute garbage and i replaced it with first a dewalt and now a bosch one

I doubt their warranty will cover normal wear, that´s how it usually works.
stop moving the tools to much please tank you keep them steady its geting me dizzy
