I mentioned the Koken name only to indicate that Samstag appears not to sell the Hazet Socket and switched to Koken. Not indicating there is any quality issues.
Due to the low Torque involved I actually think you could make a Delivery Valve Socket out of a good quality Aluminum Alloy or Brass and it would work fine.
The US bought or the Japanese sold a lot of cheap poor quality Tools back in the 1950s and early 1960s during the time when I was a Kid. In fact if something broke back then People would as if it was "Made in Japan".
But, as we know that has changed.
Japan switched to Electronic goods and after that the Tools sold here were good to excellent quality Tools.
