i need your help because i need to choose a new set of ratchet spanners the ones i've got
are pretty dreadful they are horrible they're fat clumsy clunky the ratchets are horrible
even the ratchets fall out of some and they're just not very nice to use i've done some research
and i've whittled it down to four brands yes four brands are ones that i know i can rely on i've got
my mate ryan here so we can have a look through them and see what features and what you get for
your money in each of them and then it's up to you to make a decision for me of which ones go on this
wall oh yeah i need you to pop in the comments which brand you think that i should choose
and then we'll put it later on in the community tab which one we've chosen
right let's check them out tested by machinery nation so we all love shopping for new tools and
i'm rather jealous james has got some cracking tools here to choose from you've got milwaukee
wearer bosch and halfway's advanced come on james come down let's open them up let's go rye
again like we all love tools as ryan just said and when just looking look see what you get is
included for your money and also we are i've got a special measuring device here where we
are going to measure the width of the actual spanner itself to yeah how accurate are they
how fat are they because i don't like a fat spammer do you like a fat spanner
but a fat spanner are we gonna start that end rather than a skinny wrench the most expensive
one the most expensive one first how much is this one how much is that one yeah it is 195
pounds this is a cheese 195 grit this has a lot of money for a set of ratchets fans doesn't it
but it is a nice case rubber eye sort of spanner at the front there
are you gonna are you guys gonna make me buy a really expensive shirt
on my shirt it's like industrial strength that's good velcro though okay good velcro come on you
still got velcro shoes ah that's that's the only ones the company will have fun for me
that is beautiful wasn't it all color coded oh very nice so where our products are is it wearer
in the previous video where we featured the socket sets from where we say we're
a wearer but it's actually vera because the germans w is pronounced with a v
okay it's actually vera so vera but we'll go with where
they just look smart don't they they do they're very pretty they are gorgeous color coded embossed
numbers nice yeah embossed numbers on both sides so they're not going to wear out nothing worse
than numbers disappearing off the spanners we're out we're out and my favorite job of them all
is doing that i do love the rapture so the arcade was at 4.5 degrees so 4.5 degrees before you hear
the first ratchet and you can move it again okay it's just nice nice sort of space yeah that's
good not bad that's fairly fairly standard isn't it yeah what do you think yeah right let's use
17 and 10 millimeters seventeens and tens to measure right so this one where comes out at 17.09
mils on there compare that to my cheap set you know that i'm getting rid of get rid of
a golden spell getting rid of my golden spanner a 17.33 yes it is how thick is it how thick is
that spanner that's a very good question like a fat sponge i don't like the first one eight
point six nine and the cheapy is nine point four six ah that's fat i told you they're fat chunky
all right ten mils ten mils 10 mil in there and we're going for the narrowest point which is 10.06
okay good accuracy that is that's very accurate and a cheap 10 mil 10.20 0.2 of a mil bigger
oh dear the drawers all got grips in there so uh that's a anti-slip and you've got a
panel back here a little plate is that removable in case like it's a wearing plate isn't it yeah
wearing paper wearer where yeah yeah so it's like i said it's an anti-slip jaw basically right
when you've got you on a tight knot and you're really pushing hard many times you can slip off it
don't really damage your knuckles that should stop it so and you can replace it as well so like that
cool nice color coded did i mention that yeah i like do you like color coded yeah but can you
really remember what what colors are 17 yellow there's ten so color code is good but all wear
it's me itching to get into the walking stuff i'm itching to get to get into the box so we need to
get past the milwaukee because there's 11 pieces in that set there's 11 spanners it's 11 spanners
for 195 the milwaukee for seven spanners is 125 which is great yeah i'm sure they're lovely but
pound for pound you actually get more for your money nice case yeah don't need a case but right
like it's 25. plexi head your hand where it doesn't have that one in that set anyway no
that's true flexi heads on the milwaukee and the health is advanced max pipe jaws yes so maxo once
again like an anti-slip function doesn't have it doesn't have a replacement plate but still you're
gonna want the turn oh yeah there we go no chin no cheating all right zero zero zero cool well
you have got embossed numbers well um engraved numbers there so it's 17.11 so they're not 17.
there's a 17. right it only goes up to 17. but like the 17.07 they are solid and the width 8.97
nice okay like them nasty bosch let's do helpers let's do half i don't know why i'm so excited
about bosch i've never been excited about bosch but there's something about this brush that ryan
doesn't know yet so that's what i'm excited i look forward to that all right these ones here we're
quite familiar with the alpha set because again we featured another video with these because we've
done the what you get included from your half foot advance modular trays yeah so all the modular
trays you get from health as we've done another video on that if you want to check it out yeah
we we do like i got to set these myself but one thing i've never noticed but this side here nice
and smooth yes this side here is serrated right any idea why that's a cheese crater cheese grater
i don't know why it does it right what have you got 17 there yeah let's try it right 17 width-wise
ah one thing i didn't mention about milwaukee it's a 2.5 degree arc swing on those ones there
so slightly narrower than the 17.09 that's it yeah quite accurately this is the cheapest set
here isn't it that is cheap you say because the alfred set is only 70 pounds direct from
halfords the link is in the description for all of these products if you want them so click in our
description and click on the link straight under buying them six nine point four six dollar ten
we've done that before how you do 10 as well 10 jaw width 10.15 that's 10.15 so we like that we
do like that i wouldn't need the monitor anyway because it'll be going on the shelf good value
lifetime warranty lights on warranty the more key as well yeah there's lifetime warranty on
health advice we know yeah how lifetime warranty on the milwaukee that we know
and lifetime warranty on the wearer that we know bosch on the other hand i don't know because
on their website only states about three year warranty on their power tools there's no mention
that i can see easily about what warranties included on the house if anyone does know
drop it in the comments or us send us an email the link that our email address is in our about
page on our channel well definitely your favorite color black and red i love black and red tools
did you hear that first before you do it ready gosh
okay so before you do anything yeah all right just um listen to this because this is the difference
with bosch compared to the rest of them you know how much i love a sound of a ratchet right
get away there's no ratchet so how do they work then i believe it's a one-way bearing inside and
that's why i featured these spanners in this test because i found out that it doesn't they don't
ratchet they don't make the ratchet noise they've got a one-way bearing inside so it just goes one
way and not the other it's like on a lawnmower gearbox isn't it you've got the bearings on the
axles yeah yeah so it can go one way but can't go the other way that's nuts yeah well these are the
nuts exactly he did say pardon the punt i promised so the corn in the box is actually a one degree
angle a one degree one degree so that's because you have got to move it yeah you gotta move at
one degree to be honest ah that's nice yeah you haven't gotta wait for it to click you know before
you twist it if you were upset let's say you were in an engine bay you couldn't see where you were
working okay and you were doing this you think is that is that tightening or is that going
you can't you can't really feel it yeah yeah how would you if that's slightly loose already how
would you know if you tighten it up when doing it well it's meant to be you'll guess it yeah so
you've got your writing printed on one side and then they are engraved on the other nice right
17.12 have that because obviously no one rounds in nuts do they you talk about daily thai nuts
dirty tight nuts yeah trust you trust you width wise nine point 9.25 five on the width and we'll
do the jaw on the ten mil yeah ten point one two three they are 85 pounds so you've got 195 pound
from wearer yeah you've got 125 from the walking yeah you've got 85 from bosch and then you've
got 70 from halfords advanced so i mean you've got probably the most amount of spanners there
as well when you and the flexi head so you've got time you've got one two three four five six
seven eight nine ten ten spanners in the bosch set you've got 12 spanners in the halford set
you've only got seven in the milwaukee do you do biggest bigger sets but it's they do do do do do
but the price will make them the price of that yeah yeah that's right yeah
and then the wearer you've got because i haven't yeah it's just sub 200 pounds so four really nice
sets here which one's the most accurate now in the 17 mil the most accurate is the milwaukee 17.07
it's only 0.7 of a mil bigger than the nut you'll be putting it on to whereas on the 10 mil the
wearer is most accurate at 10.06 okay that's good um so it's quite interesting yeah which is your
thinnest then which is your are the narrowest for getting into those tight spaces yeah now
that is fat span i don't like a fat spanner 8.96 mil on the weir so the weira are the narrowest
spanner to get into those narrow places but you can get proper sets can't you yeah which you can
get i'm pretty sure can you get the ratchet sets the flexible heads on the wearer they're
probably like a million pounds probably yeah million pound set of ratchet spanners
but interestingly which is the most unaccurate spanner golem i don't know the cheap ones they are
that stuff don't buy them what brand is it i'm not saying what brand it is
otherwise you'll be a spanner but there we are guys please pop in the comments which set you
think i should keep and the one that gets the most votes don't don't try to sway one of these
one thing if you get to keep these i get to come down and use them yeah you do yeah yeah but i've
been saying that i i probably bought like those ones i mean no one's allowed to use my tools
james no one's about to use my tools it says james only on my tools no one's that easy if that was me
i'll probably go for that posh i want to see you spot actually to be honest you'd like to
use the brush right pop in the comments which one i should buy and the most votes i'll keep thank
you very much for watching please subscribe and like this video and we'll see you in the next one
