Klein is on a roll here lately with all the socket sets. Nice to see them add the metric option for those who need that. Thanks for sharing 👍
Yeah the other thing they sent me is pretty neat also, I am getting more info for it… didn’t even know what to call it 😂
Are we gonna see it soon?
@@brianhall9019 yeah, I am waiting on the info for it.. that and I am going to see what all other tools it plays with 😂
I am really intrigued…can’t wait.❤
@brianhall9019 it’s not earth shattering based on the other sets I’ve seen out there… don’t get your hopes too high 😂
Finally. Can’t wait to see the metric flip sockets out.
👍👍, hopefully they release soon
Definitely going to buy both of these.
Both good options that many people have been asking for 👍
I just picked up the metric/sae impact flip socket set at Lowe’s today… i had the old SAE set that comes in the grey box, and it came in handy so many random times… especially on nuts that were too deep for the regular flip sockets
That looks like a good set if that’s the one I saw on Project Pine Hills. My Lowe’s still hasn’t got the Pass thru ones in stock yet 😂
Ah man! Finally a shorty! I run the current in my impact and ratcheting screwdriver with on board bits. Its a little too long for my liking, the 1/4" bit holding function puts klein on top in my opinion! Metric is cool too also! Thanks for the info as usual!
Both these are two things I’ve heard asked about the most. Klein must be reading the comments on people’s social media. If so.. Good on them 👍
Metric! Pulling the trigger on that!!
p.s. the 7/16 socket saved me this past weekend with some assembly stuff!!!!
I love the bag space saving aspect of all these. When you can replace 6 nut driver handles in your bag, it goes along way.
They may not be perfect when it comes to magnets, etc.. but they are a great add to a service bag.
In a old house The 11/32s saved me on a ton of closet hardware who knew....
This is great news but I already rounded out all my bolts 😂
Thanks Klein. Great product
They will sell flip socket Damaged bolt extractors next 😂
Looks very tempting indeed
Hopefully they make them available to you all as well
You make my day, sir 😊
Well your comment made my day 😂 👍
Dang…more stuff to buy…thanks Morgan.😂😂😂
💰💰💰
😂😂
Thanks for the informative video, man!
You are welcome 👍👍
@@MORGANSMaintenance I checked at my local Lowe’s earlier and the metric flip socket set isn’t available yet. I’ll definitely buy one when it hits the shelves!
@@mcj5644 👍👍… not at mine either, but it likely never will be 😂
Great video. LOVE what Klein has been putting out lately. Always been a super solid brand, but not all that innovative. Lately they've absolutely crushed it on the innovation front. Looking forward to see what they come out with for box wrenches. Great tools.
I’ve got some wrenches on order… not sure when I will get them.
Good stuff, wow metric. That’s been the most requested. About time you had Klein on the channel… lol
I know. It’s like Klein is the only company with new tools in the last 4-5 months.
My Veto SB-LD is in the mail finally.. couldn’t remember if you were getting that, but if so you may get it soon.
@@MORGANSMaintenance yes, it arrives today.
Nice review. Not sure I need the metric flip socket, but very glad Klein makes a shorter 1/4-5/16 flip now. Been using the short Malco and DeWalt ones.
Yeah it’s a good add. These two are things most people have mentioned wanting.
been looking for metric nice to see it should be out soon
👍👍. It has been something that a lot of people have asked for…
This is sick, definitely keeping this in my car. 10mm
👍👍.. my vehicles are where I run into metric the most also
Metric set will be day one purchase for me.
👍👍.. as soon as I know any info I will let you all know.
Will be interesting to see if they bring it over to the UK / Europe, although I have my doubts that they will be released in the UK. I have been told the major reseller of Klein in the UK isn't stocking Modbox, so at the moment, Amazon would be the only source, shipped from America.
It doesn’t make a lot of sense not too, but I’m sure there is a lot behind the scenes that we never know that keeps certain things from happening.
Sometimes it’s a competitor that tells companies they can’t sell certain brands in a deal they make with stores, etc.. similar to what our Lowe’s and Home Depot’s do here. They want “exclusives”
Who are we kidding.... I'll buy both take my money 💰 I always carried a 8/10mm malco just on case along with my makita socket rail mm and sae. I don't think it will save much space but I like the extended sae flip socket so this may kill the makita socket rails off. The magnetic holding feature is handy for sure!
I carry the same exact stuff. Even though I don’t run into metric that often, there are always those few times that makes it worth having on you:
Often people ask for help with assembly of a utilty cart or some flat pack thing.... so 13mm or 14mm gets some exercise. Sometimes it's some random peice of German machinery!?! Or better yet its a super rush crusty or damaged bolt and many times metric is the amswer for a hammer on tight fit!
@@MattHmm-rq6dn true
Been waiting on the Metric flip socket so I can throw it in my Car Tools box
That’s where I run into metric the most too 👍
I'll probably buy both of these. I use my Vaco metric nearly every day. My local Lowe's will probably be the last place to get them 🤦.
I feel you, my Lowe’s is the same way. They just took down the little Klein area they did have up when Klein moved to Lowe’s. Now they just have a small section in Electrical.
The only issue I've had with the Klein flip sockets is the retention of the actual socket. I'm not sure why, but I just can't get the socket retention as good as it should be.
You talking about the one you are using on the end coming off?
Damn and I already bought the VACO metric flip sockets. They’re owned by Klein.
Me too. They will be a backup or a gift to someone.
I was about to but glad i held out.
need me a 9/32 flip socket for that Klein shaft
They keep adding more sizes and even deep well sockets now that work with the Klein shafts… so it may be coming soon.
Do these weigh differently from the VACO ones? I bought the VACO metric ones recently and if you remove the big stubby screwdriver the actual flip sockets weigh much less than literally every metric socket set out now :P
I don’t have any kind of scale for smaller stuff… in hand, I can’t tell much difference
Why did it take Klein or anyone for that matter so damn long to come out with metric flip sockets? Nothing is SAE anymore
I run into more SAE still in my day to day job, but it just depends on what you do. I know some people who are mainly Metric like you.
They have always been geared towards towards USA electricians, but maybe they are branching out
These tools are aimed at electricians and and overwhelming majority of their work here in the US is SAE. Lots of HVAC, too. These really are not aimed at Automotive Technicians, etc where the work is performed in a bay with access to all of their tools as opposed to field work.
I've never had the need for a metric impact driver but I'm sure other guys have been begging for one.
I don’t need one all that often. Mostly for install of products from overseas, vehicles, etc.
Not a lot in my day to day work.
@6:51, i can't find that driver
@mozzberg590 the 20-1 is only at Lowe’s. It’s on sale right now for $29
@@MORGANSMaintenance gracias
Finally metric. now when are they going to come out with a 1/4” metric pass through ratchet set with a pass through driver Handel in the set? I don’t know about the rest of you all but even though Im in the US 90% of the devices and equipment I work on is metric. and what little SAE I run into metric sockets typically fit better on the SAE hardware. I don’t even carry SAE on me anymore except for flip sockets only because I haven’t found a metric set yet.
I would have said odds are “no” on the set you are looking for, but I’ve seen more metric stuff from Klein in the last little bit than ever before.. so “maybe” would be my answer now.
Metric is something a lot of people have been asking for, so they are listening 🤷♂️
I mostly run into SAE still, but do run into Metric enough that it’s good to have. There are a lot of people in the same boat as you though.
Finally Klein realised that you have more screwdriver models than they have and it would be wise to send you some more.
I know, I got a little bit of my 100k back I’ve spent with them in my lifetime 😂
Where did you get the kydex sheaths for them?
Rileyknifeandtool.com
@@MORGANSMaintenance Thank You, headed there now.
I was under the impression that Home Depot was going to stop stocking Klien products.
Nope, they just reduced them down a bit and now are getting more Milwaukee stuff.
Yeah, mine still has them, really about the same amount? But they didn’t have a lot to start with.
i wish the metric would be in stock I nee some for my motorcycles
Hopefully they will ship them out soon 👍
Kind of funny but this is how much I prefer Malco over Klein. I'm a night owl. Took a shower at 2am go to bed. I always turn the tstat at night to 74 I'm in Florida. I see it's at 78 so something is wrong. I look at my cameras and check the condenser and it looks like one of my units isn't on. I get dressed grab my meter at this point I could have grabbed my Klein nut driver out of my bag that was right there but I went into one of my 2 garages to get my impact and Malco flip socket. I see and hear the fan motor but no compressor. Of course it was a bad capacitor at now 3am. I went into my other garage grabbed an Amrad (the best) 35/5 cap and back in business. Took another shower went to bed at 4am up at 8:30 already ordered a new spare cap. Life is fun huh? lol
😂😂.. I do typically run my 1/4 & 5/16 MALCO’S in my impact, but it’s because I already owned them and they don’t break. I don’t often have to switch between nut drivers and screws when I’m using those. I use these flip sockets in my screwdrivers more than my impact.
Malco does need some more sizes though.
@@MORGANSMaintenance Totally agree on them having more sizes. I am also going to buy the Klein metrics when they come out.
Vaco has had a set of metric flip sockets for a while so I wonder why klein took so long
Yeah, I’m not sure why. Especially if they are owned by them.
It looks like they are producing more metric items from what I’m seeing.
So many, tools. So little, time. 🪛💸 🧡
My wallet just ran away, and hid out in the pines.
-
You want the 3" one, to use with the Modbox full flip socket set.
The shafts in that kit, are not magnetized.
Keep your magnet. 🧲🔩
-
It's a miracle, my metric flip set finally made it.
Put the SAE 1/4 on it.
-
Whose your man... 💪😎
SHAFT....DAMN RIGHT.
😂😂
Appreciate the tip on the 3” 👍
...and Dr. Morgan inflicts another pinhole on my wallet...😂
I'll likely get the metric one, just in case, and keep it with the car tools.
It’s what I do 😂
@@MORGANSMaintenance I'm really liking my Veto bags; the free ones should arrive this week!
@@OnusBones my free one has shipped too, got the email yeaterday
Does the 1.5” flip socket have enough length so that you can use the bigger sized sockets in an impact drill?
Good question 👍
Just put the 1/2 & 9/16 on it, after putting it in my Surge there is about a 3/16 gap of room left between the impact and socket…
So.. yes
@@MORGANSMaintenance Awesome, thank you! I am really looking forward to both of these.
@BlackoutTribal 👍👍
@@MORGANSMaintenanceHave you tried the newer 5/8” & 3/4” one Klein put out not too long ago?
@@xthee_0nly_1x11 no I didn’t pick that up. I may if they sell it individually, but I didn’t want to buy another entire setup for that one socket. So I couldn’t try that one.
Metric been severely needed; you think it’s not used a lot but they’re extremely common with random things
Yeah, I don’t run into much day to day. But there is stuff in vehicles, furniture, tv mounts, etc.
Anything you buy that is primarily made outside the US will often have metric bolts
Seems like Klein is definitely broadening their base. Being an “American electricians market” for so long they didn’t need the metric…but changing times have prevailed. I’m glad to see it. Now if they ever make their borescope for iPhone I’ll be in complete shock.😂😂😂
@@brianhall9019 yeah, I think they are reading comments on social media… which is good
Hey buddy where is can buy this ones?
They aren't out yet, but coming soon. They didn't tell me when or where... but I assume Lowes
Where do i get that metric set. omg.
My guess is going to be Lowes… I’m not sure when
If it saves me from going out to my workmobile.... I have a Montezuma triangle box with mechanics tools (extractors big hex/torx ect) I'd rather not make a trip out to the vehicle over some random socket. Plus I don't like to open and advertise there's 300+ dollsr triangle box with a dewalt mid torque impact wrench with a 5a power stack to steal while I'm busy inside....
Yeah, I am pretty secretive opening and closing my truck doors and 100% lock everything up between trips (in certain areas)
You’d be amazed what people can do in 30 seconds 😂
😎⚒️😎⚒️😎
My man Ted 👍👍👍
Definitely grabbing them, had the Vaco in my cart💪💪💪
@@tedmcdonald3377 👍👍.. I’m not sure when it’s hitting stores, hopefully not too long
what’s the difference between the metric and the other one
The other one is a short shaft… the shortest so far (1.5”). Makes it not stick out as far from your impact
@@MORGANSMaintenance ohhhh okay thank u !
@babysauske 👍👍
So cool stuff ne er had metric, fucking finally,
They seem to be coming out with metric stuff 👍
😢 I guess klein is just not gonna release anything new in Canada anymore
These aren’t out in the US yet either.. maybe they are coming your way 🤷♂️
Doubt it :( I'm checking literally every day for those pass thru nut driver ratchet sets and the ratcheting 11 in 1 impact 😢
@grikemimes I have got the 11-1 Ratcheting screwdriver… but my Lowe’s still has never stocked the Pass Thru’s.. but my Lowe’s also just took down their Klein area too… it’s not like the other Lowes 😂
Hopefully you get some soon
Well, Klein is still stocked in home depot in Canada and Lowe's (now all rebadged as Rona) doesn't have any. So Klein is pretty much in limbo in Canada until Lowe's gets its shit together. This usually takes years. It's Lowe's...
$19.98, Amazon
I saw that they started selling it there. Thanks 👍
sad to say but kleins flip socket is garbage, I use 1/4+5/16 all day doing hvac work and I tried cheaping out using the klein since the price was appealing but it bit me in the butt, the bit itself gets damaged easy and strips out and both the magnets fell out, my malco a year going has 0 wear besides the chrome on the magnet being chipped
I haven’t had trouble with my Kleins, but in all honesty I use them in the screwdrivers more than my impact. I usually use MALCO’S in my impacts just because I have always had them.
@@MORGANSMaintenance yeah i was thinking about that, in screwdriver form it worked great for what it was
