1/2-Inch Drive Aluminum Socket Organizer | Professional Quality Socket Holder (Red) | by Olsa Tools

If you’re looking for a review that will convince you to go ahead and press the add to cart or buy button, this is it!! I highly recommend this product due to its high quality build and usefulness. I was able to organize my impact and chrome sockets very comfortably in my tool chest which will make my future automotive jobs much easier as I have easy access to my sockets with this organizer set.

i use it to hold my sockets and it works very good

…and once you lose the end caps, the 1/2” socket holders can slide right off. So be careful

I had put up with stainless steel socket organizers for years as they seemed to be the only option. The spring clips often were too tight or not tight enough, the edges of the bar were sharp and it was difficult to add or remove the spring clips. I decided to take a chance on the Olsa Tools aluminum organizer. I now have six of them! What is unique is that the socket clip is a plastic material with a spring loaded ball keeper, pretty much like your socket wrench. The aluminum bar allows the clips to attach along a grove in each side so even when the organizer is on the workbench the clips move easily left and right making it easier to remove and attach a socket. Design is excellent and materials are durable. I will be buying more. BTW Olsa Tools offers the clips in green and black and you can buy just the clips! I intend to have my metric sockets on green clips and standard sockets on black clips for easy and quick differentiation in a semi lite work areas.

I bought a large socket set years ago from a big box retailer. The case they came in did not hold them secure so every time Id open it many of the sockets were floating around the case and out of order. These Olsa socket holders are a very high quality set. I bought the set of three (one for each size sockets). I liked them so much, and had so many sockets to organize, that I bought two more sets of three. Now all my sockets are in order and stored neatly in my tool chest. Very highly recommended. If I had to find something to constructively criticize, it might be simply that the rubber end pieces might eventually crack and not stay on. If that were to happen, the socket holders could theoretically fall off. But they dont slide on their own so I dont think that will be a problem. I really like them. I would like to maybe see different colors of anodized aluminum (maybe a blue set?). That way I could have SAE as one color and Metric as another. Five stars and a repeat buyer. Looking at their other offerings now for even more tool organization.

Ive purchased quite a bit of these to hold all of my sockets, various attachments and crowsfoot wrenches. Overall the quality of the product is great. They do what they are intended for. Having 3 colors helps to quickly identify the needed sets. The ball detents will hold your sockets upside down, however larger sockets as well as the 1/2 deep well sockets are not as secure. Obviously they are very heavy sockets so its not a major concern. The product itself is great, Ive spent a few hundred dollars to purchase about 30 of these. Overall the product is great, I havent used them much so we shall see how the plastic clips hold up. Id give a full 5 stars if the 1/2 clips felt more secure. These are pretty costly but worth it to know when youre missing a tool and keeping things organized. I do wish that you could buy a three pack of 1 size versus getting all 3 sizes. I dont know of anyone that has exactly the same number of drive tools... the cost of 1 rail is half the price of the three pack.

These rails are sturdy and have weight to them so you know you have a quality item in your hand. The socket holders hold the sockets basically like magic. I couldnt feel a snap on and there was only a very small noise. Sockets come off with ease, no tugging or yanking like Ive had to do with other brands, but they also dont fall off if you tap or lightly drop them. I cant say about a big drop because I havent done it and Im not going to try it just to see what happens... A great buy and Im going to buy at least one more set, one color for standard and one for metric. Maybe one for deep wells too, well see.

Well its pink, not red. I dont have time to send it back so im just going to rattle-can it and move on. As for function, it seems to hold the sockets well but the clips slide too freely on the rail. The sockets/clips will slam into each other if there is too much space between them. This will cause the socket to come off. There is absolutely no resistance so i got the clips where i wanted them and put a dab of caulk between the clip and the rail. We’ll see how it works. If they would make the clips a little tighter and start using paint instead of anodizing, it would probably be a good socket rail. As it stands, its functional but it leaves a lot to be desired.

Works great and quality is better than I expected. works great in my industrial tool box and very mobil or mountable which ever is needed.

Does a pretty good job of holding onto heavy sockets, but the rubber end caps are not sufficient to stop them from sliding off the end of the rail. Perhaps this is intended? I put machine screws through the pre-drilled holes in the ends to stop sockets from sliding off and that works very well.
