I highly recommend this set made by Steelman tools.

The precision is excellent as i tested them against a set of more expensive set of WRIGHT brands.

They have more weight than the WRIGHTs as well and man do they feel good in your hands, alot better than those Craftsman raised panels.

Trust me if you're looking for a set of six points these i would highly recommend. I would put these up against any truck brand.:thumbup:

This is one of the common Garage Journal topics that escapes me, I have been turning wrenches professionally for eight years now and i have never needed a six point box wrench. These look like a good road box set of wrenches though.

I have a few guys that prefer 6 point now and then
Drain plugs mainly. less likely to screw one up. then you have to get out the flank drive plus wrench to remove it.

Is there a proper method to unstuck a fastener without rounding it off? I have my share of rounding off fasteners. OK, Craftsman raised panel box end wrenches are not Snap On, but I cannot help but thinking that it may be me.

I have a mix-mosh of 6 point wrenches by varying manufacturers that I like to use on my old Mustangs. Most of those bolts have been in place for a long time and have some rust associated with them. It's the 6 pt sockets and wrenches that save the day for me when dealing with the older cars.
