Those are based on Metrinch sockets, gripping on the flat sides of nuts, will also fit metric and imperial nut sizes in one set.

many moons ago, I converted my 400/4 tap into a twin outlet tap, so I would presume the internals are the same, having fitted another 2nd hand "cone" from 400/4bits since the first mod.

it depends on grade of stainless, 316 grade does not show rust, but a lot of bolts etc on sale as stainless are made with 302 grade, and can show some rust signs.

I still have my Bahco spanners into retirement, after many years use in heavy engineering, as good as the day i bought them, and yes, some of that use with a length of pipe on them as leverage.

Yes, they do come apart easily, starting with the springs, but mark the position of the cam first, it can fit 180 degrees wrong on reassembly.
