Hand Tools & Tool Sets

Professional hand tools and workshop tool sets including sockets, torque wrenches, pliers, key sets, extension bars and general-purpose tool kits.

Choosing hand tools and tool sets

• Fastener system: confirm metric or imperial sizing and the actual size range required for the vehicles or machinery you service.
• Drive size: choose socket and ratchet drive sizes appropriate to the fastener size, access and torque involved.
• Torque work: for torque wrenches, check the working range, drive size, adjustment method and calibration requirements.
• Impact use: use impact-rated sockets and accessories where tools will be driven by an impact wrench.
• Access: consider extension lengths, joint types, profile depth and head dimensions for restricted engine-bay or chassis access.
• Set contents: compare the actual included sizes and specialist pieces rather than the headline piece count alone.
• Storage: cases, trays and modular formats can make a set easier to control in a busy workshop.
