I'd agree, spend £25 on a Britool breaker bar and it will take all the abuse you can possibly throw at it. Mine has done 8 years of service and shows no signs of wear whatsoever. It uses a machined hardened pin as the pivot point.

either that or get a halfords professional one for £20 then you can take it back and get a new un if it snaps. thats my plan anyway next time i snap mine undoing a hub nut... On 20th Oct, 2015 Tom Fenton said:

Yep they're right, but as a fix you could use an allen bolt as these are pretty hard. ( usually grade 12?) On 28th Aug, 2011 Kean said:
At the risk of being sigged... Joe, do you have a photo of your tool? http://www.turbominis.co.uk/forums/index.p...9064&lastpost=1 https://joe1977.imgbb.com/ |

to be fair the pin is sacrificial, repalce this with harder and you wil probably break the bar itself turbo 16v k-series 11.9@118.9 :)

i work at halfords and when someone does break a profesional range tool we will swap it over with no fuss at all. they come with a life time warrenty, but whos lifetime is it the person who bought it, or until the tool breaks and dies?
