New, sealed box! Set does not include a storage case

The Husky H349MTS 349 Piece Mechanics Tool Set is a comprehensive and popular tool set, particularly favored by DIY mechanics and professionals looking for a broad assortment of tools.

Here's a breakdown of its key features and what's typically included:

Key Features:

• Extensive Assortment: It's one of the largest mechanics tool sets offered by Husky, providing a wide range of tools for tackling various fastening and repair projects.

• Multiple Drive Sizes: Includes tools for 1/4 inch, 3/8 inch, and 1/2 inch drive sizes, offering versatility for different fastener sizes and torque requirements.

• 72-Tooth Ratchets: The ratchets typically feature a 72-tooth design, which allows for a small 5-degree arc swing. This is beneficial for working in tight or confined spaces.

• Quick Release Button: Ratchets have a quick-release button for easy removal and attachment of sockets and other drive tools.

• Durable Construction: Tools are forged from chromium-vanadium (Cr-V) steel, known for its strength and durability. They also have a full polished chrome finish for corrosion resistance and easy cleaning.

• Optimized Socket and Wrench Design:

  • Chamfered Lead-ins: Sockets and wrenches have chamfered lead-ins to help with fast and easy placement onto fasteners.

  • Off-Corner Loading: Designed with off-corner loading to help prevent the rounding of fasteners, preserving their integrity.

  • 12-Point Box-End Wrenches: Wrenches often feature a 12-point box-end design and a 15-degree offset for increased clearance.

• Clear Markings: Sockets and wrenches have large, hard-stamped size markings for easy readability and identification.

• Specialty Bits: Hex keys, screwdrivers, and nut driver bits are typically made from heat-treated S2 tool steel for added strength and wear protection.

• Lifetime Warranty: A significant selling point for Husky tools is their lifetime warranty, often described as "no questions asked, no receipt required," providing excellent peace of mind.

What's Generally Included (Approximate Numbers):

The "349 pieces" typically comprises a vast array of tools, often broken down as:

• Ratchets: Three quick-release ratchets (1/4", 3/8", 1/2" drive).

• Sockets: A large quantity of standard and deep sockets in both SAE (Standard American English) and Metric sizes, and typically in 6-point and 12-point configurations. This includes:

  • 1/4" drive standard and deep sockets (6-point and 12-point).

  • 3/8" drive standard and deep sockets (6-point, 8-point, and 12-point).

  • 1/2" drive standard and deep sockets (12-point).

  • Spark plug sockets (usually 3/8" drive).

  • Combination wrenches (SAE and Metric).

  • Ratcheting wrenches (SAE and Metric).

  • Extension bars (various lengths for each drive size).

  • Universal joints.

  • Adapters.

  • Magnetic bit driver.

  • Hex key sets.

  • Screwdriver bits.

  • Nut driver bits.

Important Note on Storage:

One common point of feedback for the H349MTS set is that it does NOT include a comprehensive storage case or box. The tools are often packaged in a large box, sometimes with trays, but it's not a portable, organized case like smaller sets. Users often need to purchase separate toolboxes or organizers to keep the set tidy.
