Husky Universal Socket 16 Piece Set, Front View
While fixing squeaky wooden glider rocking chairs, we needed to buy a socket set that has popular sizes, found around the house, and appear frequently in glider rockers. Well, this Husky 702200 Universal 16-piece wrench and socket set filled the bill nicely.
It cost around $30. Plus, Husky warrants this set forever. Why? No doubt because it features nearly all metal parts, and has a hardened shank on the wrench.
Snap-in places for all pieces. These that tightly secure the pieces to prevent loss. Plus, it eases putting away this tool when finished with it.
Comes with a rugged 3/8′ teardrop driver wrench that has a 72-tooth ratchet. Works with chucks from other wrench sets.
Comes with 14 universal sockets.
English (SAE) sizes include: 5/16”, 3/8”, 7/16”, 1/2”, 9/16”, 5/8”, and 11/16”.
Metric (MM) sizes include: 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 13mm, 14mm, 17mm, and 18mm.
This increases resistance to rusting, and makes each piece highly reflective. So its easy to spot on dark floors in tool chests.
The ratchet appears to have a black iron, case-hardened bit that snaps into the sockets. Strong enough to tighten or loosen the toughest nuts.
These include…
Each socket bit is deep enough to securely fit over top of the nut or fastener, and grabs it strongly. No slippage or nut-stripping grinding when loosening frozen nuts; even if you tap the driver handle with a hammer.

We paid roughly $30 for ours at Home Depot. Did not mind doing so either, since we should never have to bay another.

Husky makes all parts of this set of mostly metal. So, the pieces can conduct electricity. Thus. avoid working on live circuits, due to the risk of electric shock, or short circuits.
Be careful not to drop these pieces on stones or concrete too many times. You cpi;d mar or dull the chrome finish. But where you use ratchets, like in garages, assembly plants, basements, and pavilions, dropping them happens often. But at least, this set is cheap enough to replace, if it becomes too dull. Plus, the chrome finish does not affect how well this tool works. In fact, it works great, dull or bright.
