The problem: Buyers see “4624” and assume it’s one fixed kit. In reality, 4624 is a family code covering different piece counts, cases, and handle options.
The risk: Many customers see a black set and assume it’s impact-grade. Black finish does not automatically mean impact—these are manual hand socket sets (Cr-V) unless clearly stated otherwise.
The goal: This guide helps distributors and workshops identify the right configuration—fast.
Quick Selector
- Need “one box for bolts + screws”? Choose 28 PCS (includes a screwdriver) like 4624-12MTR+.
- Need workshop classic for nuts/bolts only? Choose 24 PCS like 4624MT/AT.
- Need faster direction changes for repetitive jobs? Choose 4626 (switch function ratchet / 4130).
Why is it called 4624 if it has 28 pieces?” and “Which version do I actually need?”
Feature
Core Section A: 24 PCS vs 28 PCS (Piece Count Logic)
A1. The Standard 24 PCS = Workshop Classic
- Positioning: Pure nut/bolt turning kit; workshops typically already have screwdrivers separately.
- Example: 4624MT/AT (supports 6pt + 12pt, Metric/SAE logic, steel case).
A2. The Extended 28 PCS = Service-Ready “One-Box”
- Positioning: Adds cross-task utility for mobile/service technicians (bolts + screws in one case).
- Example: 4624-12MTR+ explicitly includes Screwdriver and is a steel case kit.
- Key point to write clearly: “This is why some customers feel the 28 PCS is ‘more complete’—it reduces the need to carry a second bag.”
Core Section B: Decoding the Families (4624 vs 4625 vs 4626)
B1. Series 4624 = Standard Manual Hand Socket Set Family
- Message: General maintenance baseline. Multiple variants exist (case/handle/point type).
B2. Series 4625 = Black Finish Manual Set (NOT impact)
- One sentence you should repeat in plain language:
“Black finish is for identification/aesthetics—this is still a manual hand socket set unless marked impact.” - (No need to over-talk silver vs black. Just kill the misunderstanding.)
B3. Series 4626 = Upgrade: 4130 Switch Function Ratchet
- Core differentiator: the 4130 switch function ratchet handle across variants.
- Business benefit language: “faster direction change, higher repetition efficiency, better workflow.”
This is where you clarify the “Black vs. Impact” and “Ratchet Type” confusion.
- Series 4624: The Silver Standard (Manual)
- Look: Classic Chrome/Silver finish.
- Positioning: The industry standard for general maintenance.
- Handle Options: Available in Polished (P), Non-Slip (N), or G-Grip (G).
- [4624-12MT]

- Series 4625: The Black Edition (Manual – NOT Impact)
- Look: Black Oxide finish.
- Crucial Note: “Black does not mean Impact.” These are made of Cr-V for manual hand use. They are designed for workshops that prefer the black aesthetic or need to distinguish tools from other departments.
- [4625M]

- Series 4626: The Switch Ratchet Upgrade
- Look: Available in both Silver and Black.
- The Difference: Uses the 4130 Series Switch Function Ratchet.
- Benefit: Faster directional changes for high-repetition jobs.
- [4626M]

C: Storage Logic (Steel Case vs. Blow Mould)
- Steel Metal Case (e.g., 4624M, 4624MG)
- Pro: Extremely durable, classic feel, stackable in tool trolleys.
- Con: Heavier to carry. with Plastic Tray Designed
- Plastic Blow Mould Case (e.g., 4624MB, 4626MBB)
- Pro: Lightweight, holds tools tightly (no rattling), resists scratches on customer floors.
- Con: Larger footprint.
