Wera 133862 KOLOSS Ratchet Set - 1/2" Drive

Pretty nice. But I wish the centering pin would attach to the attachment as well.

Right out the box works great sturdy and handy only have to carry the ratchet and not a hammer when working in tight spots

Another beautifully made and tough Wear Tool. Great 1/2" Ratchet

When I got this I didn't know for sure what 600nm felt like, or what nm are but I know it's somewhere north of 400ftlb. I used it to break some 177ftlb nuts loose. I estimate that breakage is close to double the torque setting. Now I'm sure that 400ftlb+ is crazy high for just human power alone, and this thing is very impressive. I regret not getting the optional spike thing that isn't directly sold with it, as it would be really handy for suspension alignment with bushings.

I'll confirm that the holder is sorta useless since you can't get the extension in it. And I'll say that I think the extension has some flex in it but it doesn't do anything bad to it. The way it can reverse isn't an issue as long as you look and use a thumb.

Wera tools are just such a treat to own and use. Amazing quality and at a fair price. I love the attention to detail and the sense of design with function! Love my tools.

Fantastically burly construction, and a hammer that even Thor could be proud of. No flex, and solid engagement of the ratchet. The one thing to be mindful of, that's not in the manual, is make sure that after every job, you lift it straight up to the heavens, and in a soft yet strong voice whisper,"Koloss‚".

Perfect heavy duty Ratchet with "cheater bar." Works great on rusted and over torqued bolts.

Perfect tool for stubborn suspension bolts that need a breaker bar to get loose, and then need to be hammered out. Most of the big breaker bars I typically use are not ratcheting, so having the 6deg return angle on something with this long of a handle is awesome for tight spaces. And the hammer head of this is a bit lower profile than the mallets I keep around, so no need to be using a hammer sideways to buy yourself enough room anymore. Well made like any Wera tool, and well worth the price. Only downside is needing a pin to pop the extension handle off, but there's always something around that works for that.

this tool is quality. i have been wanting one for some time. it has no issues taking off lug nut with the added length of the extension handle. i would purchase again. also this is not my first purchase with KC tool. They have always been great to buy from.

This tool is built very well and is extremely strong. I had no problem using this as a breaker bar to change a tire. No flex. It just worked!!!

It's a nearly 3 foot 1/2 drive ratchet that you can use as a hammer. It'll loosen anything you need. Well worth the 100 bucks!

You might think this looks beefy from the pictures, but they don't do this monster justice. Right off the bat I snapped the extension handle on and took a gamble on trying to break my trucks lugs with it. Turns out it wasnt a gamble because it handled that load with ease. Feels great in the hand and generates a surprising amount of force from the hammer faces given its weight. Not something I'll use everyday, but will make my life way easier when I do

1/2 drive sockets and hardware lead to higher torque values requiring more force. That means sometimes a simple push will not suffice. We've all done it, used a 1/2 inch ratchet to tap something over just a little. Then looked to see if we cracked the head of the ratchet or left a permanent scare. Why not buy a ratchet that says"Yes swing away and if finishes matter we make a soft plastic cover to protect the thing you're working on.‚" Spend a little more and you get an extension for more torque or a removable pin to help line things up. It's great, two tools in one with good weight and one way gearing to handle the force multiplier of an added extension. What did Dr Seuss say...‚"now my troubles are going to have troubles with me!‚"

As an elevator guy I spend a lot of time on ladders and in tight spaces so bieng able to take a single tool with me rather than three(ratchet, spud and hammer) is priceless. The push through drive seems like it would be a pain but in practice it isn't that bad and a small price to pay for the options you have in this tool. It is heavy but what do you expect from a ratchet that can take the beatings that you put on your boring ratchet anyway.

Odds are, if I need to break out a half inch drive ratchet, I probably also need a hammer. This meets both of those needs in one tool. It also functions very well as a breaker bar with the extension.

I could rant and rave about the quality of this wrench. THe most important factors:
Fit and finish are top notch.
It hammers the crap out of things without ever feeling loose or sloppy
It takes "at least 600Nm" without throwing a fit.
And the handle has a remarkably good fit and locking action.

To test the "At least 600 Nm" claim, I threw on the extension and wrenched on a 1"-8 bolt. The length is 24", the fulcrum length is 22". With my full weight on the fulcrum, it was effectively 480 lb*ft, well over 600Nm. Nothing bent, the extension did not get loose, and it continued to ratchet like nothing ever happened.

This is a way over built tool. The ratchet is super strong. A super convenient setup for rotating my tires with the extension . I am not sure there is a better 1/2 drive ratchet made.

Wera has once again made a high quality tool which I highly recommend!

This is a MAN"S TOOL. Tough & versatile & just looks cool.

Great tool, I like the extension/breaker bar thing. The pouch this set comes with is useless, no way to properly hang both tool and extension. Spendy, but great when I'm under the truck and need a bit of leverage or do a little tappy-tap-tap pneumatic maintenance.

If you're needing to reduce the number of tools you carry, this is a great item to pick up. Ratchet action is smooth and holds up to the hammer 'function' easily. It is rather awkward to use one handed, but dealing with the large size hardware that is common with 1/2" drive sockets means that you are unlikely to be doing too many things one handed with this. The ratchet drive size also means that if you're running a cordless impact, you can just carry one socket set for both.

Breaker bar extension gives a great leverage addition, though it says not to use as a hammer with extension.

Only complaint is the rubber hammer cap is hard to get back onto the head fully. The tabs on it that hold it onto the hammer like to fold under themselves. As I doubt I will be using it very often, I'm not really concerned about it.

If you have ever felt guilty while hammering at a stuck piece with the head of your nice chrome whatever brand ratchet, get this. You won't be able to break it and it will get some serious work done. I go for this when a part won't submit nicely. The extended handle means you will win, broken bolts or not.

Look no further! Formidable driving force, ergonomic handle and multi-tool utility all in one!

What a tool! Is it a hammer? Is it a pry bar? Is it a 1/2 inch ratchet? Yes it is all of them and wow is it well made. All the other 1/2 drive ratchets would not even peek out of the tool box to see this newcomer. He will be clipped to my side.

Got to use it to replace a wheel bearing on my Subaru wrx. So sad i had to get it dirty, but its the absolute best! All of my friends know about Kctools now.

This ratchet will take a lifetime of beating. If clearance is an issue the head of this ratchet is a little large and might not be suitable for those applications. Also you will need to use an extension on big sockets for which the hammer portions of the Koloss ratchet will be in the way. If you need more leverage there is an included breaker bar extension. -
