So tired of junk Allen wrenches

[Ken Ford]

How do you ever know who made Craftsman…..I think Lowes sells them now, K-mart used to, originally a Sears brand, sometimes made by Ridgid Tools.

Ace Hardware.

Our maint. techs and myself typically use Bondhus. I have a set of Wiha that I found on the side of the road that have worked great for 5 years or so.

$$$$

And? Its irrelevant over the lifespan of the tools. The wrenches cost less than the downtime you get from fixing stripped out bolts

Wiha or pb swiss. (Pb swiss preffered)

Any other answer is wrong

just got a new set of WERA tools, but have been using Bondhaus for years with zero issues. Lots of junk ones as well but when I need to do something right, it's one of those two.

Or the Park bicycle Y-tool. Have two from a few years in a bicycle shop and no telling how many allens those things have seen.

I’m partial to Snap On but WERA is second for me.

I prefer the wiha t handle wrenches over the snap on! Also, Snap on isn't an approved vendor for me to order from at work... so not much snap on in my boxes.

This x 1 million. I spend too much of my time drilling out stripped Allen heads that some jerkoff with worn out ****ty tools didn't have the sense to stop- step back, and realize they need an Allen wrench that isn't rounded off.(or the correct size)
