OTC 5900A-Plus 52 Piece Master Square Drive Torx Set

Good quality and added ssizes are a plus

This is one of those fairly useless reviews, where I just bought the set and have little experience with it. But like the OTC tools I've had before, this seems to be of good quality that should hold up under commercial use and last a DIYer forever, abuse excepted. My primary reason for writing an early review is to comment on the extremely deep bevel of the inverted Torx sockets in this set. My experience with E-Torx is fairly limited, and I only owned a small import set of E-Torx sockets prior to this purchase. They have a slight bevel, but these OTCs are extreme to my eye. I had hoped to use the E20 to remove Nissan flywheel bolts, which do have short heads, but the E20 in this set will only chew the tips off of the flutes. If such a situation is a concern for you, take note. I'll keep the set, though, because it is comprehensive and undoubtedly better quality than any of the others I have. As others have noted, these tools are unfinished steel, neither plated nor black oxide.

I got this OTC set because it covers *most* everything you are likely to encounter. The only torx style it is missing is the Torx Plus Tamper proof which is a five point that is different from all other torx that are six point. You add OTC set 5905 to cover them then you have every type of torx socket there is. Then... you add XZN sockets (triple square) such as the VIM Tools VIMXZNS1000 for the German vehicles. Then get you a metric and standard set of hex (Allen) sockets you are set for everything. The quality is good. I have not damaged any sockets yet. Edit: When writing this review I forgot about 'Ribe" whose use is very limited (Euro,) there is also external torx plus (EP) that is even more rare (GM/Chevy truck seat bolts) but is starting to spill over into other uses. Just when you thought you were done buying tools.... *Update* Another Torx style has been released since this review, Torx EPR which is an external 5 point. Then there is Mortorq which is a 4 point twisted bit. Then you need to deal with the 3, 5 and 10 point fasteners on the Euro builds. Also I ran into a "MS" fastener on a newer Nissan. You'll never be done buying tools...

It's nice to have a complete set and bang for your buck earns 5 stars. 4 stars because I broke the t 40 on the first use however my neighbor had a husky set from home depot that saved the day. For what it's worth though I would buy this over the snap on sets because I've broken way more of those than I have in this set and I've used it quite a lot.

Nice set, hard to loose the pieces as long as you put them back in the case. Good quality, good price.

I went through two sets of cheaply made Torx bits trying to remove a seat on my truck. The fasteners goes through the floor pan so they're exposed to the elements from underneath the truck which has a little bit of rust. I failed to loosen a single bolt because both the Craftsman and Harbor Freight bits snapped as soon as I applied a considerable amount of torque. These OTC bits had no problem getting the rusted bolts out. Fits the fasteners very tightly and are extremely durable bits. I would not hesitate using the larger bits with an impact wrench, even though doing so voids the warranty.

I have been a professional technician since 1974. Own and still use otc tools. This set will last under professional use. If this set doesn't have what you need then you're working on something that's not automotive related and would most likely looking for a specialty tool.

Have had this set for a few months now, and so far I'm very content with it, haven't had any twist or break on me. I swapped out a few of the bits with my Matco set, just due to the ease of warranty and took the spares home. I do use the torx plus sockets alot though. And absolutely no complaints, it's a durable and complete set for right around $100 you can't go wrong there. Update: We're about 3 years in and haven't broken a single one, my only complaint is they're a little on the longer side so if it's a really tight spot they're kind of a pain to work with. I've used a lot of them with cordless rachets and they've held up pretty well

Covers majority of torx in one set and the bits fit well into bolts and don't slip. Quality set for a reasonable price. Would buy again.

I bought this set when I started working as a first year Apprentice Technician. And So far this set has been totally worth it! Amazing quality and price for a complete set that is neatly organized! You cannot go wrong with this set, I totally recommend this to the professional tech or the D.I.Y mechanic. 10/10

Even though I had a bit shattering on a stubborn safety belt anchor bolt, I contacted support and a new bit was sent promptly.

Very good product and what you see is what you get , I am happy!!

Awesome set use it everyday, didn't break one piece with power tool
