Absolutely. That only applies to Craftsman (or did, not sure how that works recently). These are Pittsburgh.

I have a set of Craftsman open end box wrench that look like the Gear wrenches. Made in China.

Iam done with Harbor Fright sockets. I have a set of 3/8 deep impact sockets. never used with an impact wrench. I was using the 13mm to remove the nuts off the filter lid on a PNP 617 engine. the damn thing broke down 3 sides.
I was using my 10 inch craftsman chrome plated wratchet.

Then I have a deep 17mm 1/2 in drive on a 18 inch braker bar. use it to loosen the lug nits on the MB`s and to torque them down with the torque wrench. Iam again in a PNP nd see a wheel I want off a W124. just using the braker bar, the socket split down the side. this one was not used with the impact either.
