Questions & Answers

How does a 1/2 ratchet work with a 3/8 socket set?

Answer This Question

Hey Husky Mechanics Tools, This product is a 1/2 breaker bar, not a 3/8 breaker bar...

By|Oct 23, 2023

    Yes with a 1/2 to 3/8 adapter. Although you can break the socket if to much force is applied

      Hey Ratchetconfused, This product is a 3/8 breaker bar, not a 1/2 in. ratchet. Thanks!

        My water heater's replacement anode comes with a 1 1/16 Socket. The anode is screwed in there real tight and I need a breaker bar. What size breaker bar should I get to fit the provided socket?

        About to change my anode as well. Although this question is from 3 years ago, i hope that this worked for you. I have a Rheem 50 gallon tank (installed 2011) and the anode has not replaced yet. I am thinking that with 1 1/16 socket & a 24 bar, it should.

          Takes a wrench specially designed for that, although a pair of channel locks (slip joint pliers) will work too.

            I had a nut on my riding lawnmower that wouldn’t budge. So I went to Home Depot and purchased this breaker bar. Success! With in minutes, I had the nuts off and my mower blades replaced!

              Hey wannano, We would need to know the drive size of the socket. Chances are being 1-1/16 it is 1/2" drive but there is a slight chance it is 3/8 or 3/4 drive also. Thanks!

                Broke first day
                I bought this to help with changing my mower blades. On the third bolt, the tool just snapped. Hopefully the store will give me my money back.

                  Broke On First Use
                  This breaker seemed nicely made at first, but broke on the first use loosening some rusty bolts with a cheater pipe for more leverage. The pivot pin of the universal joint snapped and one of the prongs that hold the male socket plug bent over 45 degrees. I'm sure I just exceeded the designed limits of this breaker, but using a pipe for extra leverage is such a common practice that it's frankly silly that they didn't build these stronger with that use in mind. Local store refunded it, thankfully.

                    Broke
                    The bar is nice. But, the head snapped off during its first use.

                      I expected it to fail but get me started on a rust bucket SUV. Surprising it held up using a 7 foot persuader bar to bust things loose. An A+ for the money.
