I just ordered this one (http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/wti0001p?&I=LXAX96&P=7) to use on head screws cause I am tied of striping screws and wreches. So I was wondering if I just set my self up for more troble.

The MIP/Thorp allen drivers are one of the best if not the best drivers in the industry. I find after using them and others I prefer the plastic handles best because my hands when sweaty slip too much on the metal handles.

mip also makes hex wrenches with a ball end. i have two of them and they are great. if the ball end wears out you can send it to mip and they will grind a new ballend for $7.50 after a year my wrenches do not show any wear so far

Thorp made good parts, hardened gears and wrenches. I got a set of hardened gears & axle for my Hornet years ago that show little wear, and the original wrenches have not worn. Some of the other hex drivers have pulled out the handles or tips have worn out. MIP has since taken over the line but from what I've seen the tools still have the same quality.

These are simply still the BEST Wrenches available.Incrediable wrenches.Guys if it looks like the screw is SOOOO tight it's going to break a tip always have some allen wrenches with you to loosen it up 1st.
Goodluck Racing guys and with MIP/Thorp you cant loose.
