Question:

I see the polak version is highly rated and a fraction of the cost. How does this socket differ and is there a reason to buy this one? Maybe its stainless steel or USA made or something? Thank you. RM39DQ. PK12703.

Hey Rhys, there's basically no difference between the Pollak 7-way part # PK12703 and the Roadmaster part # RM39DQ. If I were you I would go with the one that is priced better.

Hey Rhys, how did things work out with the Pollak 7-way socket compared to the Roadmaster one? It’d be great to hear if the lower-priced option met your needs. Your update could make it easier for others deciding between the two.

@JamesonC Hey there, I've only tried the cheaper one, and it seems solid. All males and females have been installed and they stand up great to the hard use of company work trucks. I just ordered several more.
