Depends on the manufacturer and the quality of the tool. Lower end tools will use chrome vanadium. Higher end tools will use some form of tool steel.
Depends on what you are needing it for. First you should determine what size socket wrench [ratchet] to use. If using a small socket in a small place, try either a 1/4" or 3/8" drive ratchet.Second will see a square piece on the head of the ratchet. You take the socket, and match the two squares together.(Note: On some ratchets, you may simply be able to push the socket on, while others, there may be a small circle on the opposite side of the socket wrench. You have to push this in, while pushing the socket onto the square, and, when the socket is in place, release the circle. This attaches the socket to the socket wrench safely, so that it does not come loose while in use).Now, if you are tightening the bolt/nut, you push the lever on the back of the head of the socket wrench to the LEFT. If you are loosening, you push the lever to the RIGHT. (Remember it like ON/OFF. On [Left], Off [Right]).After setting the socket wrench, you place the socket on the nut/bolt, you turn the socket wrench to the left if tightening, and right if loosening. (When you turn it, you should hear a clicking noise. Then when you begin to tighten/loosen it, it will stop clicking).Hope this helps!
The sockets are standard sockets, just like any ratchet wrench. It's the handle that's special, with some type of gauge to indicate how hard you're twisting it.

A socket wrench can drive sockets that totally encompass a nut or bolt head, thus getting a much better grip of it than a wrench.
The function of a socket wrench is to tighten or loosen nuts and bolts. It does this better by completely encompassing all sides of the nut.
It's a very short wrench head that fits on a ratchet driver instead of a socket.
Quarter inch Ratchet, Quarter inch wrench, Quarter inch socketQuarter inch socket and quarter inch wrench are tools.
You use a speed wrench, (or speeder wrench) in place of your ratchet handle that came with your socket set. It has an off-center grip that you rotate around the wrench shaft. Due to its length, you will usually be able to keep your hands and the wrench clear of the work area, and will be able to rotate the wrench 360 degrees without interference - allowing you to install or remove nuts and bolts much quicker than with a standard socket/ratchet set.
The socket wrench is one among the system of wrenches that departs the wrench handle from the wrench that engages the fastener. Whereas, the torque wrench are the torque indicating socket wrench handle. When it is used properly, that could help you calculate the torque amount while fastening using the wrench. It also limits the amount of torque which is applied on material.
i am guessing your talking about the drain plug and if so then yes an open end box end wrench or a socket and ratchet and some just require the ratchet only while others use Allen wrench, the size depends on the plugs head

As with all brakes, you'll need a wrench or ratchet and socket.

15\16 socket and a impact wrench and a ratchet strap. It has left handsed threads.
a ratchet
I'm going to assume you already know where it is, so, once you have it where you can get to it, you depress the clutch fully. You'll need a 5/8" socket and ratchet or a wrench (the ratchet and socket is preferable - 3/8" drive with a long handle would be the way to go) and a small prybar. Put the ratchet and socket on the bolt, push the back of the ratchet with the prybar until it pushes it, then you turn whichever direction you need to go... "On" if you need more free play, "Off" if you need less.
1/2 wrench or 1/2 socket and ratchet and that's basically all it takes
