The above set is from the repair department at Ohio Power Tool and are one of their most frequently used tools. There is one big issue that they told us which causes them all to fail, pullout. The metal part is held in by cheap glue or a crimp and after a little use they fall apart. The above set has already been recrimped several times.

These tools feature chrome-plated metal for corrosion and abrasion resistance. The handles offer a comfort grip for increased control and durability.
