1” Socket Set Drive

1” drive

The Extra Heavy Duty Set was the 1” drive. It is also referred to as the Giant Drive – Giant Handles are 1 inch drive. It was a 12 piece set with a sliding bar T handle (No 53), 2 extensions (No. 63 and No. 123) and 8 sockets. In addition there were other handles and such available. The frequency and orders are confused. It appears there were multiple years where some parts did not appear in the catalogs, and then reappeared. The significant change was in the naming system (adding an L). Other than this change, there appears to be little to no change in form from 1931 – 1970
