You haven't tested a ratchet until you have a cheater on it along with the other two mechanics, the car wash guy, and the guy with the clipboard pulling on it with ya. Then when it breaks the boss wants to know why the clipboard nurd has a broken nose.
*this clipboard does nothing!*
Comment of the week!
I once had to put a post from an old, discarded basketball hoop (longest cheater bar we could find, must have been 6' long) on a lug wench to break a lug nut free! I was pretty violent when that thing finally let loose.
well the reason the clipboard guy had a broken nose is because when the ratchet failed someone grabbed the cheater pipe and hit the clipboard guy with it because he tought this was his chance to get back at him.
CCW1911 ahahahahhahaha
I love how the gauge is leaning in closer and closer like a sadistic dentist
How does this comment inly have 4 likes lol
This damn near made me piss myself laughing!
Still reminds me of Steve Martin from Little Shop of Horrors. "Now spit!"
Fantastic comment. Had me chuckling
Lol thanks for the comment, hilarious
"It's bigger than the small one"
AvE, bringing science directly to you.
I love listening to these videos, I’m totally blind and I love the way you describe what’s going on. It is as funny as hell. Great stuff, keep them coming.

DAMN SON- He came wit dat old-timey monocle!!!!
But seriously how Kulvinder Bholgal supposed to read the responses and how did he comment in the first place? Even if he wasn't always totally blind they change the comment location (INSERT DRAMATIC EFFECT=dun-dun-DUH!_true)
@@robdeskrd
Text-to-speech accounts for two of those problems but idk how he'd find the comment section
@@jacobg5122 Blind mode doesnt JUST do the text to speech for comments, it also does it for the whole screen when selecting things
I just watched 25 minutes on ratchets and was completely entertained by this guy . Well done.
Just watching some of these ratchets flex made me want to put my safety glasses on at my desk.
Better be careful, someone catches you wearing safety goggles at a desk, next thing you know you have a clipboard grafted onto the end of your arm...
If that thing hits you those safety glasses are gonna do f**kall!
Got my safety squints on even though there's no way I'm getting shrapnel through the interwebs
Phil Wendland I'll admit my butt got puckered a few times ;)
There's a first time for everything
First time tight second time alright
better safe then sorry, dont wanna risk it. I even doubled up on the condoms just to be sure.
Except in the comments. Lol.
Thankfully I still have my father's Snapon 50's 3/8" and 60's 1/2" socet sets, most of a 60's Armstrong 1/2" set, a full set of 60's Snapon wrenches, and a few Armstrong wrenches. Dad really blessed me with a lot of cool tools.
The internet wouldn’t be the same without AvE 😂
I could not have been the only one tilting my head away from the screen.
Kasper Kure Olsen Bosses always know best.
I closed 1.5 eyes!!!
For some reason I had one eye closed and was squinting through t'other
Kasper Kure Olsen those are the guys who wind up getting someone killed. You've got to respect that people are made of meat, and there's lots of stuff in the shop that can butcher it.
You weren't.
Dude, I just found your videos. You have the speaking flair I believe in. Good fun 16yr old humor from a 49 yr old ! magic 👍
4:58 " thats what the wife tells me anyways.... Heyyyooooo!" 😂😂
So true about tools meaning something. My friend just went through his dads old tools after he had passed and found 2 sizes of fine tooth snap on swivel ratchets similar to the ones in the video. He immediately grabbed them and started cleaning them off all proud about it. You don’t get that with a Husky simple as that.
Don't really get that with new snap on either though.
even the dial indicator wants the fuck out.
Yeah when the dial is putting the safety squints on you know it's pretty scoocum
I thought that too. Poor thing was terrified!
You mean pressure gauge? There is no dial indicator in this video.
Im just the 300 pound gorilla with the wrench, I dont know the names of all the doo dads. Honestly though I have a degree in engineering from 20 years ago and still cant tell you the names of half the crap I work with, have to look it up most of the time.
17:39 Hydralic Press Channel reference "Ja, pritty guud"
And here ve go!
I literally only watch your videos for the hilarious commentary 😂
yea same ill probably never machine a thing this guy is just too funny
AvE is like everyones cool uncle
Da S ha could you imagine the trouble ypud have gotten into with an uncle bumblefuck in the family?
Da S Too Bad My Cool Uncle Died.
I had 14 uncles (12 kids on both parents families), there's a couple bumblefucks in there. Interesting family reunions.
Thems the ones what taught me to cuss, drink, and look at naked women.
You're not fucking around with uploads. Either the wifey and kiddo are still outta town or you're in the doghouse!
Corey Ballard he could be using up the backlog of brownie points ;)
SHHHHHHH! That's supposed to be a secret!!!
Either way, we win! Hurray!
I was starting to get worried when we went 3 days without a vijeo
Corey Ballard I thought I heard the kid in the background noise
I kinda laugh, my teachers back in school told me to never tighten anything with a ratchet, because the "mechanism will fail". Looks like they were wrong.
@Mr Bones You must be so strong
Yesterday I heard someone say, “keep your stick on the ice.” Awwww ha! The connection was finally made.
Welcome to hoodraulic wrench channel
This has to be the new intro to theese "torque till it breaks" vids..
soupisgdfood I seriously missed the muhlibdium soolfight in this one, so.
3 ave videos in two days... the wife is gonna have to step up her game if she wants my attention
Scott W lol truer words were never spoken
Scott W "Ol" fuck yeah!
The reason I like the quick release is because when your hands got oil and grease it's hard to pull your sockets off without the quick release and most of the time when you're really horsing on a bolt you're using a breaker bar but we all have used a hammer on the handle of a rachet or a pipe haha
Any ratchet that breaks at the square before the gears is a strong ratchet. Maybe sloppy, but strong at least
AND, repairable!
Or designed that way - given ALL of them failed that way.
Austin K not all of them failed that way, many broke internally which means the teeth inside are fucked. Which is unrepairable by a normal person.
@@GVlVG it doesn't matter If they break internally. All round head ratchets would have this issue if it were to break internally. Pear head ratchets are completely rebuildable. Round head or roto ratchets have teeth that are machined inside. If those round over or chip. A full warranty of the tool is the only option.
@@austink641 and yes. A high quality tool will break at the anvil. The anvil should always shear off before the flex head pin breaks, the bar bends. This is because it's much cheaper and easier to rebuild a 3/8 kit rather than replacing a full ratchet.
AVE to the snap on tool truck guy dont know what happened was just pulling on it and it broke.
Hahahahaha.
My snap on guy don't even ask anymore.
I blame Archimedes for all of those broken ratchets. I'm paraphrasing, "Give me all the Torque in the world and I can break any lever."
Broke a Fap Off torque wrench and snap on read me the riot act
Larry Stacey my snap on guy doesn’t even ask questions in relation to ratchets sockets and screwdrivers
My father brought home a bent ratchet from work one day. I want to say it was proto but the 20 plus years between then and now... Who knows. It was 3 foot long, skookum as frig, used for working on the engines used to pump petroleum from a to b. Valves bigger than v8 cylinders, with cylinders big enough to crawl in. And yes he used a cheater bar and who knows how much anger to wreck that tool. I knew at that moment to never piss that barrel chested beast off. He would have loved your vijayoes. Kudos to you.
5:52 the suspense as the gauge leans closer with each knock was just *chef kiss*
"You give this to your son he might care." I dunno if i agree, while a better tool is better duh, heirlooms have value because of the story attached to them. If you give your son a snapoff that sat in your toolbox and never got used it doesn't really mean as much as a pos cheapo he dragged through the oil fields of Saudi Arabia and was used to break into a car when locked out. At least that's my perspective, some of the best heirlooms i've gotten where cheap shit when they where bought, but they all have a helluva story attached.
As soon as I could afford a modest set in my 20s, I bought it. One of the best things I've ever done. The tools just feel different, better than everything else. I use them constantly for everything. They don't just sit and collect dust. I have still yet to have to replace any. My son and more than likely my daughter (dad goals!) will inherit them!
6:41
The tension is killing me!
Get it?
No?
I'll get my coat.
AvE "im getting out of here!"
Pressure gage "me too!"
I really appreciate the testing, results, and the time spent making this video. Reminds me, about 30 years ago my brother told me, "Don't horse on your socket wrenches. They cost too much. If you want horsepower in loosening something stuck on you need a breaker bar. If you want to gorilla down in tightening something, grab and set a a torque wrench so the parts survive.
I have just come back to this video…reminds me of the time during my apprenticeship when I was rebuilding the front suspension on a 379 Pete. We had run out of acetylene earlier in the week and this truck had to be out the door asap.
We had the U bolt nuts glowing red with the induction tool and had the L872 with the big handle and the biggest snipe in the shop to bust them nuts. The amount of force that ratchet head can take is far greater than we could ever put it thru…and we did succeed in removing the nuts sans heat wrench.
This is what I am watching when I say that I am doing homework... :D
myusualchannel hey, it's research right lol
Might could use a squirrel cage around the wrench to prevent accidental damage of satellites when she kerspodes.
So we see the ratchets are not that bad, how about stress testing sockets.
Craftsman vs Pittsburgh vs. SnapOn vs. Mac
I've had lots of sockets, some good, some better. - If you use chrome sockets on impacts - The bigger you go - the harder they fall - Cut in half then weld a foot long length of 1" pipe on a 41mm socket for reaching through threaded rods in structural steel and she'll blow up and crack at the action end and if she doesn't the 12pt teeth will wear away.
Worst I've ever seen is a 1/4"/3/8" set of Stanley sockets - Came straight from China with no detents machined in the ratchet end - Worse than useless - Got the same set again, detents machined. - Chinese QC at its very best.
Snapon will win mac will come in close second
I wish he tested a craftsman ratchet
@@theghost7277 mac is owned and built by Stanley now days. I stick with snap-on myself.
the gauge is freaking me out😁💃
Did you try to get them replaced??
Which company warrantied their tool and which one didnt...that's the real test!!!
I guarantee that if you took the Pittsburgh back to Harbor Freight it would be replaced no questions asked.
patissanchez so do husky, no questions asked, No receipt either.
SenselessTuning I’ll buy 4 Pittsburgh ratchets and have 30$ in them
SenselessTuning yes ma’am
@SenselessTuning if your putting this much torque on a ratchet, your doing something wrong. should have switched to an impact or breaker bar a long time ago for that job... if you want to get it done on time... lol
Oh Boy, I caught myself flinching away from the screen on that first test!
"Get your wife to hold your hernia".....Fuckin' hilarious..
I laughed too hard at that part
Love watching your machine test the tools with your humor in it! Thanks for this... you got a Sub!
As the clicks slow down the anxiety builds. Freaking hilarious!
Summer teeth! "sum 'er here, sum 'er there".
I read this comment as he said it
Action Jackson
Summer there, an summer not
Sum'er here sum'er missin
"Just aboot give ya the summer teeth on that one"
Coffee spit everywhere. Gosh damn you are the master at one liners.
My dad had a proto since before I was born. It's used quite often and still works like a champ.
snap on man must love your returns
one thing I would love to see is if you could build a test rig that would test longevity. something that free-spins the ratchet and then puts a load on it repeatedly until it begins slipping
It's your time to shine, Sully!
That's all fine and dandy. But all the tools I have came with my Ikea furniture.
Charles McBride lol
Charles McBride You can have fun with Allen wrenches
Charles McBride 😂
This is a video you start watching and think your gonna watch 5 minutes, but end up watching it all
You sounded like the guy who crushes stuff in his hydraulic press, 'and here 've go'. Love it!
I lost it when he said, "I can't really see the gauge from where I'm at, underneath the covers. Well that's good though, makes it double blind, right?"
Your absolutely right about the front cover bolts on the Mac. I’ve broken mine 6 times in the 2 years I’ve had it, 5/6 I blew the bolts clean out of the housing. Luckily, they’re made in factories every day
i've also broken off those small suckers! on a flex head mind...
I’m an auto tech and I have ratchets from all of the truck brands and my favorite ratchet as of late is the gearwrench 120xp flex head ratchet and a close second are my snap on flex heads with the comfort grip. My snap on 1/2 long flex head has been a monster and hasn’t needed a rebuild since I’ve had it. That thing gets a workout on stuff like yellow loctite rear GM caliper bracket bolts. I think it’s tougher than most 1/2 breaker bars I’ve used. It gets a lot of rest these days though as I’ve moved to mostly electrical and driveability diagnostics.
Haven't tried a Mac ratchet but snap on has always been so comfortable to use. When you're using something every day it better feel great in the hand.
SO MANY VIDEOS IN A ROW I LOVE IT
I always feel the need to put on my safety squints when I watch these sort of AvE videos.
Man I loved this video! Never have I laughed so much reviewing tools!
So glad I stumbled up this guy's channel. Entertaining content and just hilarious commentary. Easy subscribe for me
I'm told a curve to the left hits the spot
OH FUCK YEAH BABY. JUST IN TIME FOR LUNCH BREAK.
same!
same! best lunch break ever
Love this guy's reviews, actually knows what he's talking about...which is rare on TH-cam.
“And here we go” lmao 😂 awesome impression
Just earned my sub. Holy hell I haven't laughed at tool torture test like this ever. Keep em coming! Hilarious and educational😂😂
@AvE, can you post some close-up photos of the fracture surfaces of all the square drives? Maybe take a look under a microscope too? And some side views so we can see if there was any twisting.
Failure,....glorious!!!!!!!! And a moment to behold!!! Well done AVE.
great test, my buds and I have always talked about doing one but we dont have the cash to throw out. Plus We love our tools.
You could hear the squint in his voice when the first one got to 1500. Hard squint.
You should try filming some of these with the thermal doodad. Might be interesting to see
30 yr union millwright here...nothing but proto professional or Wright tools for me.... My grand paw gave me a 19" longhandle superwrachect love it...great video 👍
I love how excited you get when you brake that ratchet😉
Who else is watching this video flinching. lol
Karl Napp yes , we are like if we were there in person, Im kinda like ducking behind my phone, LOL
The suspenders was kilting me.
Haha, you nailed it!
I was squinting.
I figured "he edited the video so nothing really bad has happened" :)
@S Tracy No helmet but welding goggles.
The gauge wants some safety squints!!
Looked to me like it was about to duck under the bench for safety.
4:38 I thought you added in a snare drum to build up the tension lol, then i realized it was the hydraulics making that noise.
Williams old ratchet is beastie. I use it all the time. Never lets me down on the job. One of my co-workers loves it.
Mohr's Circle, now there's a term I haven't heard for about 30 years. Last time I heard it was in a bullshit University Engineering course. Great videos by the way. It's amazing how a smart character as yourself with a hydraulic torque wrench can be more entertaining than main stream media. Keep it up!. Cheers.
I graduated a year ago, they are still teaching Mohr's circle but only in introductory classes
I always wonder, what do you do with the broken tools? Throw them out? Or do they just collect in the empire of dirt?
I inherited some tools from my father in law that he either bought used or when he was a kid and they truly are my most prized tools. Myself I did buy a Snap-on ratchet and I was so unhappy about the price at the time but 20 years later I'm certain I got what I paid for. I also use many harbor freight tools but never sockets or ratchets (or pullers) this is from hard fought experience but for one offs you cannot beat them. Also I have used some grinders for over 10 years. Old video but I just found your cranky wonderful channel.
Back in the day I worked as a mechanic for a large logging Company. Like most shops mechanics supply the stuff up to a inch and the shop provides the big stuff. We were changing out the a bearing on a old 30 B dipstick loader. Using a 3/4 drive snapon ratchet with a cheater and bent it. When the snapon dealer came around the boss tried to warranty it. The dealer refused said we abused it. So the boss buys a new one like $650 at the time we took the bent one into the Machinist room and bent it in the little 80,000 press in fact we tied it in a knot the next week when the snapon dealer came around they took the knotted ratchet out and said that's abuse. Everyone laughed a couple months later the snapon guy made a special trip in. He had a dealer convention coming up and wanted the knotted ratchet to take with him.
My boss a cranky old mechanic that drove a hard bargain got $650 plus the $650 for the old wrench.
As far as tool quality goes I am at a loss. I had my shop robbed a few years ago and almost all of my tools stolen.
I had lots of snapon but mostly in the big stuff was J.A.WILLIAMS Snapons industrial line . And craftsman.when the insurance company got done cornholing me I had maybe 10 cents on the dollar to replace 50 years of accumulation of tools anyway I couldn't afford snapon or Williams or proto I was stuck with Craftsman and harbor freight well China made Craftsman costed 3xs the harbor freight stuff for basically the same shit.
For most professional mechanics we honestly don't need snapon tools a few specialty things but for the most part as far as hand tools putting 300 pounds of torque on a 3/8 inch ratchet is STUPID 300 POUNDS IS 3/4 DRIVE RANGE MAYBE 1/2 BUT AT CRAFTSMAN BEING 3XS THE PRICE IT'S SMARTER TO BY HARBOR FREIGHT. AND THEIR QUALITY HAS GREATLY IMPROVED RARELY DO I BREAK A TOOL IF I DO I HAVE MY BOX OF BROKE HARBOR FREIGHT TOOLS WHEN IT'S FULL I TAKE THEM IN AND GET THEM REPLACED. SAME WITH CRAFTSMAN. THERE ARE CRAFTSMAN STORES EVERYWHERE WITHOUT HAVING TO GO TO SEARS OR LOWES.
AS FAR AS POWER TOOLS I HAD A 1INCH DRIVE IR impact that was stolen I replAced it with a harbor freight earthquake and it's been 5+ years of use no problem . The IR was $1200+ to replace the harbor freight was $200- $300. Most mechanics get their first snapon bite when they go to a Mechanic school the dealer comes around and gives students EASY credit. That's a joke. It's like heroin mechanics overpay for tools and finance their addiction at I'm sure near loanshark rates. Don't even get me going on fucking tool boxes. $7500 for a Harley Davidson limited edition tool box ef that .
The dealer must have been picky when craftsman was still us made ive warrantied stuff in pieces no questions asked if my snap on man pulled that bs with me he wouldn't be getting paid.i remember breaking a 1/2 drive craftsman breaker bar with a piece of 8ft pipe amd 2 250+pounds guys hanging on it and all the guy at sears said was( damn I guess yall had some torque on that thing)
Hi,
I had 20 years of tools stolen also, man it hurts every time you go looking for that tool.
New favorite channel!
I would love to see some matco tools tested.
I love how even the gauge is taking cover.
Pretty dam cool! I've never seen this done before hat's off to you sir! I always had to learn the hard way?
Time to cash in on those lifetime warranties and repeat testing.
The Mac ratchet is the same as the Proto pear head fine tooth (non swivelly). Never have broken the socket drive off any of my Snap On ratchets but I have torn the shit out of a couple of ratchet pawl and gear assemblies in my 80 tooth. Oh well, just toss the busted bits towards the guy, he gives new bits, life goes on. The absolute beauty of Snap On tools.
Thanks for great videos this is product review not those unboxing BS i hope 🤞 you keep em pure like it has as times goes on
Prime example of why women live longer lol
Exactly. Men like this are why we've reached the moon.
Let all agree...a little bit of this, a little bit of that 😅
Yeah longer, more boring lives.
I love the commentary on this 😂
Muscle Vs Tuner well god damn I didn’t know that you knew what tools are! Just kidding
Hey Bobby
Chooch this, chooch that, and all his words are awesome!!
Whoa two of some of my top favorite youtubers in one place! Nice
diesle get ya bitches
Even the gauge is trying to hide
Ryan Lawlor lmao yes
Bud the commentary is fantastic! First video I've seen of yours and I subbed shits top notch gold bud
"AND HERE VE GOO" nice shoutout lol
I feel like i should put my safety glasses on just to watch this...
Safety whaaa? 'Engage my safety Squints', surely?
Wonder how those new gearless ratchets will do
I have never bent or know of anyone who has bent a ratchet to failure dont know if it is humanly possible I guess it is more common still fun to watch
Thank you my Canadian!!! gentleman
Very interesting watch after completing my material science and strength of materials classes. All I am imagining is stress v strain graphs and you can see the elastic regions and then the point of fracture.
5:15 throgh 6:13, even the gauge was ducking.
Awesome, not sure how difficult it would be for you but I'd absolutely love it if you did a UK special. Snap on is really popular here, but so are Halfords (UK highstreet store with a line of 'professional' tool lines with snap on style warranties), Draper (UK & Asia made) or Rolsons (Asia made UK brand).
Your tool stress testing and comparison is unmatched.
sometimes you find cool stuff on youtube, but this is fantastic! Drilling out a broken tap brought me here.
The slop and tooth angle measurements are really the criteria to go by with these, because with any normal use without resorting to cheater bars, they're not breaking.
Boils down to how smoothly it ratchets, and the slop in tight areas.
If the ratchet has too much friction, you need to use your other hand to hold the bolt on place to ratchet it if you're starting putting it in while it's still too loose.
Totally agree. My first thought was forget the torque test, I'd rather see the amount of pressure each have during the swing back to the next gear tooth. Nothing worse than working in a tight area, with a ratchet that will not fucking ratchet!
Idea for a follow up video: see how easy it is to get each one warrantied lmao
Best long 1/2" fine tooth ratchet I've ever had is a Allen from about 20+ years ago
I love the commentary in this video😂😂😂😂 keep up with the great content
That's Awesome!! I have broken not one But 2 breaker bars that were both 1/2" drive. The last one gave me 8 stiches under my right eye and cheek bone!! it bounced off me and hit the owner of the truck I was working on in the leg. He was nice enough to give a ride to the Doctors...
