Wera - 5003524001 Zyklop 8789 A T-Handle, Square drive 1/4 Head x 110mm T-Handle

Wera makes great tools, this simple but surprisingly useful T-handle is no exception.

I would like to give this three stars, but as the buyer, I have to take some responsibility for buying the right product in the first place. I give it four stars because it is, as far as I can tell, a functional tool that matches the description perfectly. I just happen not to like it. I read the reviews that said it needed a center detent, and they were right. It would be twice the tool if it had one. I do not like the satin finish, as it stands out like a sore thumb in my tool box, compared to all my other wrenches. Thats on me, but I dont like it. Its also very, very small. Its exactly the dimensions in the description, but its still smaller than I imagined. Thats on me, too, but I dont like it.

Ignore the written description nearly entirely and look only at the photo. German brand name made in Taiwan. Quality is acceptable, but no better than brands than are clear they will be eastern imports. -1 for lack of clear country of origin in the description and obsfucation with German engineered -1 for lack of center detent to lock in position, as another reviewer noted.

Very happy very well-built delivered on time just great

This tool is perfect for those tight spots where space is limited and high torque is needed. I find this t-handle especially useful when removing/tightening the belly pan fasteners under my 08 VW Rabbit. The tool has a nice, attractive gun-metal finish and the square drive moves effortlessly across the slide bar. It would have been nice if the square drive locked onto either end of the slide bar (as it does with my Beta 1/2 drive T-handle slide bar)which would have earned it 5 stars, but as is the tool is a worthy product thats worth every penny.

got it for hubby, he has been looking for that size for awhile. he says it works great.

Thanks

perfect as expected Wera is a good brand - German company, tools are made in the Czech republic [not china] - its a t-handle and does what a t-handle should - price is not too bad and made to last a while - so in the long run it saves money - would recommend..

This item, as well as the 3/8 and 1/2 appear to be of good quality, however they are manufactured in Taiwan as stated on the packaging. There is no center detent groove for 1/4 and the 3/8 drive versions, however the 1/2 drive does have a groove. It would be easy enough for them to include a detent groove in these versions. The moveable heads already have internal ball detents which help tension it in place on the bar... better than freely sliding back and forth. In the end I would recommend this item, I give it 4 stars only due to the lack of origin information provided.

Good tool. I havent broken it yet, so that is a plus.
