Husky Tool Reviews 2020; Q2 & Q3

144-Tooth Ratchet Set

I recently installed a winch on my trailer and used these ratchets to get into some tight spots.  I really benefited from the fine tooth design with these ratchets and was able to apply ample force to tighten down the all of the bolts.  The mechanism is very smooth and the sockets release easily with the quick release button.

• 1/2″, 3/8″, and 1/4″ ratchets in set
• Industry leading 2.5 arc swing allows operation in less than 3/4 in. of space
• Low profile head design to allow easier access into tight spaces
• Sockets are easily removed with the quick release button
• Low profile reversing lever

 

3/8 Drive Impact Socket Set

In areas where I had more clearance, I used these impact sockets to tighten down bolts for installing my winch.  The included adapters made it easy to connect to my impact driver, which made the process very quick.

• Standard chrome socket profile with the strength of an impact rated socket
• Great for use with cordless impact drivers and drills
• Rust resistant black oxide coating

 

Extraction Set

I’ve not yet used these sockets to remove any stuck or rusted bolts, but the uniquely shaped socket openings will register on misshapen bolts and nuts much easier than standard sockets.

• Comes with 5 SAE or metric sockets, plus 1/4 in. and 3/8 in. adapters
• Unique socket design allows effortless placement on fastener, even if they’re galled or rusted
• Multi-drive design allows use with impact gun, ratchet, wrench, or pliers

12oz Titanium Framing Hammer

This hammer is a dream to use.  The balance is superb and the magnetic nail starter makes getting the job done much faster.

• Well balanced Ti head for reduced fatigue
• Titanium offers 10 times more recoil dampening than steel
• Waffled face to help prevent hammer slipping off nail heads
• Magnetic nail starter seats nails quickly
• Rugged Hickory handle

20 Gal. Pro Duty Storage Container

I used a handful of these containers to store supplies and tools on a recent install.  I can’t believe how sturdy and well thought out they are.  The hinged lid, easy stacking, and nesting features are my favorite aspects of these storage containers.

• 500 lb capacity
• Tie down holes
• Polypropylene body with polycarbonate lids
• 6 latching points on lid; can function as a hinged lid
• Gasket in lid shields contents from water and dust
• Easy stacking/nesting to optimize storage

Connect Rolling System Tool Box

If you’re looking for a budget friendly packout option, look no further.  The connect rolling system is modular, has a ton of flexible storage options, and there are additional units you can purchase to customize the base system.

• 3-piece modular rolling tool box
• Small parts organizer has 12 removable bins
• Removable tray in middle tool box
• 7 in. wheels and telescoping cart handle
• Additional Husky tool boxes (like the cantilever tool box and organizer) will connect to this system

Adjustable Height Work Table

This table moves around the shop easily and locks into place so that you can work confidently.  The adjustable height table is a great feature, allowing you to sit or stand at the table while you work on anything from arts and crafts to larger and heavier projects.

• 300 lb capacity
• Adjustable height range of 13”
• Height ranges from 26”-42” (depending on if leveling feet or locking casters are installed)
• 1-1/4 in. thick solid wood working surface with protective coating
• Work table can accommodate most Husky 62 in. mobile workbenches underneath

Adjustable Height Tool Chest

The adjustable height worktop is a great idea that allows the user to dial in the perfect working height for just about any project.  The integrated power strip and huge storage capacity make this a great choice for workshops and garages.

• All-welded steel construction with durable powder coated finish
• Full extension soft close drawer slides rated for 120 lbs
• Bottom drawers have two sets of soft close drawer slides to support 240 lbs
• Six 5 in. casters support up to 2,500 lbs. (4 are locking)
• Pre-cut no slip drawer liners
• Tool chest lock includes 2 keys
• Power strip has 2 USB ports and 6 outlets integrated into the side
• Heavy-duty, 19-Gauge steel construction
• 1 in. thick solid wood worktop
• Top is adjustable from 38 in. to 48 in. above the floor with easily removable crank handle
• A large push bar and cord storage hooks are the only items that need to be installed

Flip-Top Tool Chest

While the flip top design on this tool chest is definitely awesome, I think my favorite feature has to be the built-in charging station and power tool storage in the left-hand drawer.  However, with the incredibly flexible storage options and right side bottle opener, it may be too close to really say what the best feature of this tool chest is!

• All-welded steel construction with durable powder coated finish
• Full extension soft close drawer slides rated for 120 lbs
• Bottom drawers have two sets of soft close drawer slides to support 240 lbs
• Six 5 in. casters support up to 2,500 lbs. (4 are locking)
• Pre-cut no slip drawer liners
• Tool chest locks include 2 keys
• Power strip has 2 USB ports and 6 outlets integrated into the side
• Left side drawer has an additional power strip for battery charging, a power tool hanging rack, and battery storage
• Each side of the work surface is lifted by a pair of gas struts
• 2 steel storage bins under work surface are great for small parts and tools
• A large push bar, bottle opener, and cord storage hooks are the only items that need to be installed
