Teng Tools

jims-terrano · 16-10-2015, 22:52

Has anyone got any experience of Teng Tools?

I was in a motor factors yesterday and noticed a big display of Teng sockets and ratchets. I'm after a new 1/2 drive ratchet so asked how much they were. For a Teng 1/2 inch drive ratchet with flick switch for direction is £26. Not knowing anything about the brand decided to wait before buying.

Cheers

Our local tool shop stocks Teng. Not bad quality.
Personally it's Halfords profess range for me....

Don't know about the modern ones but the old ones weren't to bad from what I can remember, sadly can't be any more help as most of mine are either MAC, Snap on or very old Britool

I have an old set of these https://www.machinemart.co.uk/shop/p...=SLI-000310119 cheap but never smashed one with a windy gun or 4ft breaker bar infact the bar gave up before the socket did

Teng tools used to be really good quality 15/20 years ago ratchets and socket wise but don't know about the modern stuff. Guess if they are still going they are doing something right.

What's the warranty on them? There should be kit out there with lifetime warranties that isn't Snap On prices.
