Actually when I was working at a dealership, I bought a set of 3/8 impact swivel head sockets from snap-on, and they kept busting.. went and got a harbor freight set aND I still have them.
The handle broke on the maul? Or the head?
The head of the maul sheared off. I'm no metallurgist but I suspect the alloy was too hard or the heat treating process was botched.
I have Sunex impact sockets. I've never had one break. The only sockets I use out of my HF stuff are the thin wall wheel protector sockets. The set is like $15 and they only have to hold a little over 100lb/ft so they have lasted.
