One thing that confuses me, is how the RPT bit would grip the rounded bolt, when the normal Hex socket would just spin freely. The video itself said the RPT sockets are not "oversized", so that doesnt make any sense how it would work in the situation you provided. Not to mention, the "normal" Hex socket looked physically smaller than the RPT. It looked more like a 5mm or 4.5mm, rather than a 6mm Im not saying the RPT Hex sockets dont work when used as a typical Hex socket, but the "extraction" demonstration makes zero sense when you think about it.
There are a few factors at play here. RPT Bits are not oversized and any 6mm RPT will fit a 6mm hex without any issue. The RPT fit in a good/ new fastener will likely be more snug than most other brands. We hear this a lot from GripEdge users. Rounding Prevention Technology is engineered to pull the material inward vs pushing out against the walls of the fastener. This allows it to lock into place on a stripped-out fastener where the wiggle room on a traditional bit misses the corners and spins freely. The videos don't even do justice to how well they perform. New technology + Snug fit = Better GRIP 💪
@makeintoschu Traditional hex bits push against the walls of the fastener head, causing it to expand and strip. The machining in our patented RPT Technology pulls the material inward toward the center vs pushing it outward. This allows huge torque rating increases on both new and stripped fasteners. You can see more of the design and how it works in this short video ➡th-cam.com/video/ZukLhEl9R88/w-d-xo.html
Is there a plan for a master set so I can give you my money all at once instead of trying to piece it together

@@gripedgetools OK, if the traditional hex key will be snug and will round the bolt, how can your tool work then?
