Wera5135918001 Kraftform Kompakt Zyklop Mini, Set of 27

Small size to get into the small spots. Perfect for just about any simracing and 3d printing needs. There is a bit of a learning curve but once it’s understood it makes sense and works well. Worth the added price due to the quality of the tools.

First let me start off by saying i own A LOT of Wera tools from multiple hex key sets to Zyklop ratchet sets, sockets, extensions, bit checks, joker wrenches you name it, and i use them in an industrial setting EVERYDAY their steel is top notch and tools are amazing quality, i started purchasing Wera, Knipex, Wiha, Gedore and Stahlwille tools about 10 years ago and they probably make up around 60% of all my hand tools. i have yet to have any Wera tool fail on me with the exception of a 5/32" hex key that a coworker borrowed and snapped from an imperial set i bought like 8 years ago, this set is awesome i only wish it came with 2 flat head bits instead of the pozi ones.

This wasn't my first Zyklop Mini purchase, so I knew going in that the quality is surprisingly good for such small ratchets.Pay attention to the little pictogram on the inside of the tool wrap that explains how to remove the sockets. They're very firmly fixed, but all you have to do is twist them maybe 15° counterclockwise and they come right off.

This set is where it all began for me, since I have purchased the 11-piece metric and 8-piece SAE joker wrench sets, a dozen screwdrivers including the clever bit-storing extending blade, ratcheting, flex-shaft, ESD, chisel driver, and Kraftform ESD micro models. I also had to have the 1/4inch mini-Zyklop set (metric), the 1/4inch full size as well as the 3/4 inch grand daddy. While I was at it I picked up the stubby series of ESD, bit-holding, and conventional drivers, along with the very high quality bottle opener. I have also recently picked up the 1/2 inch Koloss ratchet with hammer, the extender and centering pin for it. You could say I have become a major Wera fan recently. All of the tools which is quite a comprehensive range of tools, totals in at under $1500 which I consider a bargain.

I bought this set for my son as a Christmas present. He has a Yamaha motorcycle and I thought this would be an ideal set to have. These are top notch tools, however, they are not made in Germany. Wera manufactures them the Czech Republic and they are excellent tools. The assortment of bits and sockets is ideal for most motorcycles and could be used on most modern cars as well. These tools should serve my son well for the next 20 years. Yes, they are not cheap but you are getting professional level tools.

Superb performance, especially in extremely tight spaces.Was replacing my VW Passat battery and found that the battery retention bracket is smack deep within the annals of the engine compartment. Due to a lack of an extension arm, I had to out the small rachet to work.The fit was extremely tight, and I was really only able to move the handle 5 to 10 degrees. This is apparently sufficient (as per the design of the product) to both loosen and tighten the retaining bolt without issues. I do suggest one purchase of the hex extension for this job for efficiency. But if you just want to get the job done, this set will get it done for you.

I like the Wera Kraftform Kompkt Zyklop Kit because the kit has almost everything that I need. The stubby screwdriver it si really handy for most of the work that I preform, I would prefer that is was a ratcheting stubby screwdriver so it could be stronger because of the size, it is really good tho that where you put the bits is magnetic. The Zyklop mini ratcheting (1/4) is the best one t has a lot of teeth where it gives you more turn when you are on tight spaces and I use it more than anything else the bits and sockets I would like that they haded on imperial instead of metric, witch I bought a set of imperial sockets set ( witch it got expensive so I could get the set complete). The last ratchet (3/8) I really thoug it was going to be a smaller size (5/17) witch is most of the ratchets that I have bought since sometimes there is times where I need something bigger for better grip and stronger and I can find the adapter for it so I can add the sockets for it witch is most useless for me. I would like them to add a adapter (3/8 for a 1/4) for it that way is is the complete set and one of my best for work and most complete set tools.

I’m a huge snap on tools guy but Wera tools are made of high quality. This tool kit is amazing and feels solid.
