Protective lined sockets

Curious if anyone has come across any lined sockets....???
Something I've been meaning to get for some time.

They look something like these.

Yeah... I had a metric set picked out but I procrastinated on ordering.
& now the place that carried them is no longer in business

Ian,

I remember that Vic had showed me a set...they are from Snap-On Tools.

I don't know about how you would get them.

The problem with Snap-on is their selection is very limited:

Yes & the SnapOn socket is only rated to 10ft lb
The ones in the OP are 200 ft lb

Ian, Princess Auto had a set of these on sale last year that I picked up. Maybe that is where you saw them.

Scratch that, I just looked at the ones that I bought and they have the plastic on the outside so that you don't scratch your wheels. Sorry. Maybe Princess Auto does carry them but I am not sure.
