I had a cheap set (IIRC, They where called eagle or American Eagle) I bought off the matco truck, but I kept snapping them on basic stuff like seat belt tentionsers with an impact. I traded them in on the more expensive matco brand and kept breaking them too.
For Torx and allens, snap-on is the only place I know of that makes good quality socket type Torx and allens. The snap-on ones come with some copper color coating on them. I've never seen one completely break, they usually just bend. Every other brand I've seen break with any use of an impact....They are pricey, but IF you plan on using them alot and plan on using an impact on them, IMO snap-on is the only brand who makes them right...That's coming from a guy who has 98% Matco stuff in his box.
