I love my Pittsburgh pro ratchets 😃just keep them well lubricated. Mostly every ratchet cheap expensive Pittsburgh,kobalt snap on etc comes from the factory poorly lubed. As soon as I purchase my ratchets I take the time to open them clean out whatever if any of the factory lube that’s already in them and re-lube with SUPER LUBE. The key is not to over do it with the lubrication like this one KZitemr demonstrated in one of his videos. He was packing the daylights out of his ratchets in grease with a grease gun smh 🤦♂️ I use my finger tip and apply it just to cover the teeth and a light film on the front and back of the gear and the pawls and wherever there’s metal to metal contact. Btw SNAP ON includes a tiny tube of SUPER LUBE in their rebuild kits but I’m sure you know this,anyway don’t mind the Haters I understand why you do these videos and I appreciate that. Thanks 🙏 for the video.

breaking into cars is really easy XD especially if they're old. if they're like 2,000 and older you can usually get them open with a shaved key and you can even start them too LOL. but i have a newer truck, you get tired of waiting hours and paying 55$ every time you lock your keys in the car, so all you need to do is keep a little wedge 1-2" wide and a coat hanger in the bed of your truck j.i.c. and wedge the top corner of the door open and stick the coat hanger through the gap and reach down & grab the door handle and just pull it open and it will unlock the door and open it. it works best with 2 hangers strapped together because it takes a little force to open the door when it's locked, and sometimes the hangers bend. i've locked my keys in the car several times. this used to take me hours. the first time i did it it was at work... and i worked at a grocery store and it was like 10 pm and it looked like i was breaking into a car on the edge of the parking lot lol... took me 3 hours to finally open it. i can do it in 10 minutes now XD... i keep a spare key in my wallet also though even after having to do this 3 or 4 times, the shit gets old... real old.

I don't see the point of this test. No one would ever use this tool to put their full body weight on it. Anybody with any sense would use a breaker bar. So the mid grade breaks the gears and Snap on breaks the quick release 40 or 50 lbs later for something you shouldn't be doing anyway - for 10X the cost.

I'm pretty sure that rachets have a pounds per pressure limit depending on which one is bought. I've got all different kinds of ratchets from Duralast to MAC. I've never broken a ratchet because there are specific tools for each job desired like when loosening train wheels, you wouldn't use a ratchet if you had one big enough. why? because a ratchet has many parts and for that specific job you'd need a SOLID tool, but I guess I was taught smarter than a lot of peaople, and that is sad if that is the case.

Any ratchet will last in the torque limits that it's designed to... meaning don't use a quarter inch ratchet to tighten your lug nuts.. don't use a half inch ratchet as a breaker bar... use a breaker bar ... they're all adequate to do the job that they were designed to do... so if you want to spend $200 on a Snap-on ratchet I'll spend $12 on a Pittsburgh ratchet and as long as they're both being used within the limits they were designed to be used they will both last the same amount of time...

well it did pretty much hold your weight, i tested a couple of no-name 3/8 ratchets that probably came with cheap kits from the 80's, before china was in on it, so very likely taiwan. i got nowhere near my weight, i put them in the vice to pull on them, probably 60lbs of effort twisted off the (non quick release) solid end, it was a very soft failure, like unhardend steel. much less effort than i was expecting and you felt it going as it twisted. another no-name long 3/8 ratchet jammed inside the head using it for wheel nuts (yeah i know! lol) but at least the jam meant it got the job finished

Duralast, HF, etc, Better, Tekton, Mac Tools, Gearwrench and Better of Best. SK, Snap On, Carlyle among others. Either is by money or preference and what kind of use youre going to give to the tool.
