New CRAFTSMAN 20-Piece Mechanics Tool Set Keeps Repairs in the Stack

Small socket sets are easy to carry. They are also remarkably good at disappearing beneath larger toolboxes.

The new CRAFTSMAN 3/8-Inch Drive SAE/Metric Mechanics Tool Set gives DIYers a compact collection for home and automotive repairs. More importantly, its storage case connects to the CRAFTSMAN VERSASTACK system.

That means the set can travel as part of a larger storage stack instead of sliding around the garage, truck or trunk by itself.

1. VERSASTACK-compatible case: Connects to compatible VERSASTACK storage components, sold separately, for easier transportation and organization.
2. Low-profile ratchet: Features a head that is up to 25% thinner, helping users reach fasteners tucked behind brackets and other components.
3. 90-tooth mechanism: Delivers a 4-degree arc swing, allowing the ratchet to operate with less handle movement in confined areas.
4. Metric and SAE coverage: The 20-piece set includes an assortment of 6-point sockets for working on different vehicles, equipment and household projects.
5. Included extension: Provides additional reach when the ratchet alone cannot access a recessed fastener.
6. Durable storage: Keeps the ratchet, sockets and extension together between projects. No searching through three drawers for the socket that was in your hand five minutes ago.

1. A mechanic's tool set is more useful when it is close to the project.
2. The included case can connect with compatible VERSASTACK boxes, organizers and rolling storage. Users can add it to an existing stack, secure the components together and transport everything as one organized system.
3. For someone already using VERSASTACK, the set becomes another module rather than another loose case. New users can start with the socket set and expand the storage system as their tool collection grows.

1. Performing routine automotive maintenance
2. Removing covers, guards and brackets
3. Maintaining lawn and outdoor power equipment
4. Assembling furniture, shelving and garage equipment
5. Handling household repairs involving hex fasteners
6. Keeping a compact socket set in a vehicle or workshop

This is not intended to replace a full professional mechanics collection. It is a practical grab-and-go set for the repairs most homeowners and automotive DIYers encounter regularly.

Does the set include both metric and SAE sockets?

Yes. It includes an assortment of metric and SAE 6-point sockets.

How many pieces are included?

The set contains 20 pieces, including a 3/8-inch drive ratchet, sockets and an extension.

What does a 4-degree arc swing mean?

The ratchet requires only four degrees of handle movement to engage the next tooth. This helps when working where there is little room to swing the handle.

Does the set include the complete VERSASTACK system?

No. The mechanics tools come in a VERSASTACK-compatible case. Additional storage modules are sold separately.

Can the case be used by itself?

Yes. It functions as a standalone carrying case but can also connect to compatible VERSASTACK components.

Pair the set with the CRAFTSMAN VERSASTACK System Tower for rolling job-to-job storage. The CRAFTSMAN VERSASTACK System Deep Toolbox provides additional room for power tools and larger supplies.
