Hex Headed Taps

I've had the Lisle tap sockets for about 10 years. The only thing I have found wrong is the square drive socket is not milled for the retention ball on the ratchet or extension. They will fall off the ratchet and could cause a broken tap. The cure is a dremel tool with a 1/8" carbide ball end to grind the retention divots. I measure a regular socket for the depth and mark the shaft of the ball end cutter so I get the correct depth. Other than that I love the Lisle tap sockets.
 
rubber covers from mcmaster are comfy too
