Pro-Grade Tools

The variety of hand tools available on the market is so huge that it can be difficult to quickly spot the difference between premium brands and something that is more economically-priced. Meanwhile, many brands represent the perfect middle ground, and Pro-Grade is one of them. It's owned by Allied International, the company that has been on the tool market since the early 1960s. Actually, Pro-Grade tools offer professional quality for a reasonable price, and their assortment is large enough to cover the needs of mechanics, technicians, and repairmen.

There are Pro-Grade wrenches, sockets, ratchets, pliers, measuring and cutting tools, gear pullers, and lots of other products sold individually or in kits. When it comes to hand tools, the choice of material is crucial. Only quality raw materials are used in the production of tools by Pro-Grade, such as chrome-nickel and chrome-vanadium alloys or high-carbon tool steel. Of course, the design also matters. For instance, in order to ensure high strength, impact sockets have to be thick enough while their wear resistance and performance are defined by their accuracy and solidity.

Impact sockets by Pro-Grade easily meet all these requirements, as well as the existing ANSI standards for hardness and torque. Their walls are thicker than those of the tools made by many competitors, so you get reliability and durability that lasts for many years or even decades; the same goes for conventional sockets by this brand. Featuring a chrome polished surface, Pro-Grade ratchets may look simple to those who prefer massive rubber handles and sophisticated designs of the ratcheting mechanism. However, the compactness of some models will allow you to get to some hard-to-reach areas, and a sufficiently large number of teeth ensures convenience.
