I got the same deal on both it was such a great deal ! I spend more on a single tool on the snap on truck for what i got them both for and the quality is high very impressed
@@jonlukesmith yeah I don't know why Harbor Freight Tool doesn't expand into Canada because I know there's a lot of Canadians that would buy their tools and I don't know if you can order them online and have them sent to Canada. Sorry to hear that though bro. But as always thanks for stopping by and have a great day🌎✌😃
Chrome Vanadium (CR-V) is better for hand tools, they are harder. Chrome Molybdenum (Cr-Mo) is better for impact sockets because they are not as hard. Icon choosing to use the softer Chrome Molybdenum is actually a poor choice, you want Chrome Vanadium for wrenches and hand sockets. What Is Chrome Vanadium? Chrome vanadium, sometimes called Cr-V, is a unique type of steel created by combining chromium and vanadium alloy elements. It’s usually used for steel hand tools, large-diameter spring wires, and other high-stress applications. When producers create chrome vanadium, they use a cold-drawn heat-treated method that enhances the chrome so it can bear heavy shock loads in elevated temperatures. This makes chrome vanadium ideal for mechanics’ hand tools. Finished chrome vanadium products are smooth, hard, and quite shiny. A chrome vanadium finish is likely what comes to mind when most people hear the word chrome. Chrome Vanadium Socket Uses Chrome vanadium sockets are a good fit for hand-torque applications and slow action applications like ratcheting. Chrome vanadium socket sets are known for their rigidity and hardness, and they offer a high amount of rust protection. Chrome vanadium is not an ideal for impact sockets. Its rigidity could cause the anvil to wear too quickly when using air impact wrenches. What Is Chrome Molybdenum? Chrome molybdenum, also called Cr-Mo or chromoly, is a type of steel made from combining chromium, molybdenum, iron, and carbon alloy elements. It has stronger impact resistance, strength, and toughness than chrome vanadium, so it is typically used for tools like impact sockets. On finishing, manufacturers typically coat chrome molybdenum with manganese phosphate, which increases corrosion resistance. Manganese phosphate is the preferred coating for military and aerospace. Chrome molybdenum products are usually a dark matte gray color - not shiny like chrome vanadium. Chrome Molybdenum Socket Uses Chrome molybdenum is the better material for impact sockets because these sockets usually need to be much thicker and heavier than chrome vanadium hand sockets. Impact sockets are heat-treated with a different method than other chrome sockets. Chrome molybdenum enables impact sockets to withstand the significant jolts of power that occur when using impact guns. Impact sockets can’t be as hard as chrome sockets because they need to absorb high-speed, high-powered blows. Despite what you may read or hear from time to time, chrome vanadium isn’t “better” than chrome molybdenum, or the other way around. They are both excellent choices for different applications. Choosing the right chrome for the right tool or part is what matters most.
@@mustangecoboosthpp3869 well thanks for the heads up on this information I guess I must have had it backwards and PS I'm still reading this comment. And I've also got all three of the Quinn Master socket sets and their sockets are Chrome vanadium but the ratchet on the other hand is made out of chromoly Steel but only the ratchet I don't know why tool companies keep jumping back and forth like this🌎😒. As always thanks for stopping by bro and thanks again for your great information🌎✌😁
@@Coates9100I prefer the Quinn set it’s got more sockets and more of a complete set. I use other ratchets when working on cars and only use the Quinn ratchet to break bolts loose that way if it breaks I can just take it back and get it replaced. Best of both all worlds for a good price
@@Shhhhhhh-e9myes the quinn Master socket sets do offer a lot more in sockets. And like I said before I like both of them icon and Quinn and you can't go wrong with either one of them plus when there's a 30 or 40% coupon around at Harbor Freight Tool you really score. As always thanks for stopping by and I appreciate your Insight on the socket sets🌎✌😃
@@Entusiasticuser go get you some icon tools and believe me you'll forget about all those other brands. 👉Icon tools Incorporated👈 The Best of the Best🌎🔩🔧🔩💯✔😲😲😲
@@johnrichey5032 icon tools can do everything and I mean everything that any Snap-on Tools can do. And the plus side with icon is I don't have to go get a bank loan to buy their tools or remortgage my house to pay some greedy company like Snap-on that are way overpriced garbage.........

@@Jesseberumen yes indeed it was a super great deal and a lot of us including you jumped on this one.🌎💯✔✌😁
5.5mm is fords favorite for trim pieces
Hi Coates! Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving. ❤🙏👍🎉🎉✋⭐⭐⭐⭐
Same to you🌎✌😁
@@Coates9100 Thanks! 😊💗
Good info bro!!! Have a Good Thanksgiving 🦃🦃
Thanks! You too!🌎✌😁
Wish we had harbour freight up here in Canada - good video and info!

Daddy chill.
I need a reason to buy them😂😂 I'vegot similar sets from other great brands with lifetime warranty.
