    Does it have any warranty? My ball detent came flying out when using it with Milwaukee impact sockets and now it won't hold a socket. If there's no warranty, wouldn't I be better off just buying husky?

          I was using this and the bit itself has twisted so it will no longer snap into my hex impact. Will warranty cover this?

                Hi veteran, we do apologize for the inconvenience. Please bear in mind, we try to keep store inventory as accurate as possible, but it is best to reach out to the local store to verify quantity. To determine availability you will need to localize the item online by using your zip code. 1. Localize Homedepot.com using your zip code (My Store Location: Change) 2. Choose the store where you want to pick up the item (Make this my Store) If you do not see the store inventory for this item, it is most likely an online exclusive in your region and must be ordered online. We appreciate your business and look forward to serving you in the future. Thank you for shopping Home Depot!

                At first I thought the same thing, then I found that there were multiple sections in the store that had adapters like these, and you have to go to the right place. Set your store and note the "Aisle" and "Bay" and you should be able to find it.

                              Great product but what I really want to review is the awesome, knowledgeable and helpful E. Bradenton employee Yvonne. I needed a novel solution for a driver to install a female panelmate anchor for a fabric hurricane shutter bought at Home Depot. She showed me that this product would connect my drill to an allen-wrench socket and voila! Brilliant!

                              Caveat Emptor Buyer be ware/Note to manufacturer.
                              Very porous. Seems that maybe the forge temp was too high before the final quench. The break easily when used regularly. Pics are from today and it broke yesterday so the rust is from the dew. And it's not worth the time for the warranty process at it's price. For occasional use with no really tight bolts, it might be a good choice, but not for a worker who counts on his tools to hold up to the job every day. I'm going back to snap on. I gave 3 stars because it's not horrible, it's well fitted and the detent has held up well, they all just break near the neck which makes sense given the stress caused by the smaller shank heating up faster than the head just above it causing a small region that is under more stress than the rest of the shank during heat treat.

                                I used this bit and it broke at the Milwaukee logo I’ve only had it for 2 WEEKS I’m not even using a fuel just a 1/4” brushless impact driver also wish that made a 1/4”-3/8” socket adapter with a detent pin so if I put a chuck on the end it doesn’t fall off

                                  I buy Milwaukee tools exclusively due to their ruggedness and reliability, but these driver adapters are astoundingly poor quality. I was using this item with an M18 (not even a Fuel!) impact driver on my car when the adapter sheared clean off, right in the “Optimized Shock Zone.” I was doubly disappointed to find that Milwaukee also offers NO WARRANTY for these items at all. If Milwaukee offers an item of this quality, you’d expect them to stand behind it in some regard. Buy something cheaper.

                                    Good quality and value that opens up the world of impact sockets to your 1/4" driver. Got this to use smaller sockets with my 1/4" carpenter's bit driver. Perfect! Made in Taiwan and processed in China

                                      Bit broke with moderate use.
                                      Handy little bit, but only lasted about 4 months of regular use. The bit snapped it off tightening a bolt under relatively light torque.
