Are toools like this worth to have? They seem to run about 25-35 dollars. This is a craftsman one for $25. Do they work well?

Thanks

I have one just like that one. I used it when I was a truck mechanic. about the only thing I used it for was axle studs. one time a guy in the shop broke into my box to borrow it when I was on vacation. He broke the part where the ratchet attaches, so he found a brake roller that fit around the broken part. Next he broke the eccentric part inside. Craftsman replaced it, but the jerk didn't want to take it in himself. after that I got a Snap-on that is a more inline style, and fits on a 3/4 drive. It takes less room and has twisted off 3/4" studs.

Don't remember the model, but Vice Grip has a plier that works better and is easier to use. Its a funny looking pair of jaws. The top jaw resembles an eagle's beak.The problem with the one pictured is quite often there isn't enough clearance between the stud the next one to turn the tool.Have had one of them for over 40 years and have hardly used it.

I have had one just like that for probably 20 yesrs. It saw very little use because usually there isn't enough of the broken stud sticking out of the hole for it to grip, but if there's enough stud sticking out of the hole they work fine as long as the stud isn't hardened....rw

They save a lot of time if the stud is in a place where you can't swing a vise grip around the full circle, as in removing studs from a block. You can put an extension on it so the ratchet or breaker bar is above everything that gets in the way. Mine's a Craftsman and it seems like it doesn't want to grip the studs that are larger diameter but works almost every time on 7/16 or smaller.

The serrations or splines are wearing smooth on mine and I feel it's kind of premature for no more than I've used it. I'm thinking a better brand will last longer. Jim

Yep, They work good. The snap-on one I have is a little better IMHO, but they both remove and install studs.

We had one in the shop I worked in and they are one of many methods to remove broken studs, generally they work fairly well and if you run into broken studs a lot in your work then they are worth owning.

seems like they would damage the threads. If there is enough stud sticking out for that tool then there should be enough sticking out to double nut it good and tight. Thats the way I always remove them and it saves threads.

I have one with 2 different sized holes in it. They work well but don't use it with an impact wrench. They are designed different. I have been using mine for at least 35 years.
