Allied 59090 159-Piece Hand Tool Set

Allied 59090 159-Piece Hand Tool Set Review



Allied 59090 159-Piece Hand Tool Set Feature

  • 159 tools
  • Carrying case
  • Lifetime warranty
  • Get one for every car, truck and boat
Whether you live in a house, in an apartment, on a boat, or out of your car, you need a tool set. This 159-piece set by Allied contains a full complement of hand tools and offers everything you'll need to tackle common tasks from assembling furniture and installing light fixtures to tinkering with small appliances. Fitted into the compact case are five wrench sets, a socket set, an adjustable wrench, a driver set, pliers, a crimper/stripper, an electrical tester, a tire-pressure gauge, and more. All the tools are built to last. The wrenches are well designed, and the pliers, snips, and crimper have padded rubber grips. Keep in mind, however, that while this is a terrific household tool set, the tools are designed for small projects. The wrenches, in other words, while perfect for putting together a bookcase, aren't large enough to handle the nuts and bolts on a backyard swing set. If you buy all these tools individually at the hardware store, you'll easily pay twice as much. --Jon Groebner

About Stanley Sockets and Ratchets
Stanley sockets feature the proprietary Max-Drive design, a unique radius corner design which provides 15 percent more torque, making it easy to tighten fasteners and simplifies the turning of rounded corners. This technology helps reduce fastener wear without contact on the outer 5 percent of the fastener, so fasteners last longer. This helps reduce slipping on frozen or rusted fasteners. Stanley sockets are manufactured worldwide with high alloy steel and heat treated for performance.

Stanley ratchets and accessories are designed to meet or exceed ANSI specifications. All are forged from high-quality steel and finished in high-polish chrome. Selected Stanley high-torque ratchets have a Quick Release mechanism for one-handed use. Sockets and extensions remain locked onto the drive until disengaged with an easy-to-reach, low-profile quick-release button. Stanley Pear Head Ratchets have a slim profile and a small 7-degree arc-swing for accessing hard to reach fasteners.
