What's this made of? Metal? Plastic? Is it case hardened like an impact socket?

It is hardened like an impact socket. But for what it is made, you do not have room to break it if that is your concern!

I am holding it my hands at this moment. It is in fact metal. It is some sort of aluminum. The only plastic is on the screw end that clamps to table. The jaws are a rubber compound that are removable. I've used this several times and does a really good job on light work. The ball socket makes it really nice to position things at different angles. Overall, works good.

Just hard enough to keep the socket on there. It works perfectly with my 1/2" Craftsman impact sockets. I highly recommend it.

It's a hard plastic, but thin. Works well like I said. I have dropped it screen first a few times and no damages or scratches.

The actual socket is ceramic. The housing is metal and the shade is metal, but doesn't get uncomfortable warm, especially as I have a 13W CFL bulb installed.

It's hard plastic. And it's semi grippy. Doesnt offer much drop protection but keeps size down.

It is made of a thin sheet of plastic covered with a metallic reflective coating. Probably aluminum.

It is made of metal, not plastic. This is a fairly stout lock for its intended purpose. I used the one I bought on my 2007 Ram 1500. Worked great. I would refer this product to anyone.

It is lightweight plastic (hollow). Does not carry much energy when it hits someone (it always happens!)

Yes. There is a red folding case included with labeled slots for each socket. I have had this set for almost 4 yeas and haven't broken any sockets. I used it for personal vehicle use. Mostly by hand but I have also used them on a 3/8 impact. Made my money back on my first brake job. Hope this was helpful.

It's made out of plastic. And I use it with my electric drill or my impact. If you use daily you need to be careful when popping rivets. I broke my rivet gun already. Just make sure you oil it daily

It's plastic. Solid but plastic I have dropped mine several times. It's basically just a couple of LEDS stips covered with a plastic defuser

It is plastic. Its pretty tough though. Ive had minr on the front of my short course slayer pro for over a year amd the only problem i have had was one of the wires came out. I just soldered it back on and viola...

Mine was new but i bought about a year ago. I can say it is very strong. One has to carful not to get hand smashed when it torques a nut. I would recommend an impact set of sockets as it will break cheap tiawan made stuff. I speak from experiance.

It is aluminum, T6 type or similar I believe. It is pretty strong, but not particularly heavy.

They are a hard plastic casing with metal screws. It is lightweight but very durable! Very happy with them.

Hello, The adapter ring that I have is made of metal... I hope that it works for you as well as it has for me...
