Pros
- A 365-Day Warranty as Standard: Every product carries a full year against manufacturing defects from delivery, with selected items running two to three years — unusually long for low-cost hardware and fittings.
- The Long Tail of Hardware: Electrical and lighting, fasteners and joining, pipe, tubing, hose and fittings, power transmission, hand tools, abrading and polishing, fabricating, automotive and motorcycle parts, DIY and lab equipment — the parts a general retailer does not carry.
- Priced Per Part, Not Per Pack: A 5-in-1 mini ratchet wrench in Cr-V steel at $10.34, a 1/4-inch 5–25 N.m torque wrench with ±3% deviation at $22.03, and a high-accuracy digital 3/8-inch torque wrench at $116.11 — with a wholesale programme running 5 to 25% off by order value.
Cons
- Standard delivery runs six to sixteen days because stock ships from overseas, so it is worth ordering ahead of the job rather than the morning of — UPS Express at two to seven days covers the urgent case.
- The free-shipping threshold is stated as $20 on product pages and $30 on the shipping page, so it is worth checking your basket total at checkout.
The Verdict
What sets Harfington apart is the depth of the catalogue rather than any one product: This is a hardware and industrial-parts store, and the value is in carrying the specific thing — Chicago screws, quick-release pins, fuel injectors, grommets, leather rivets, router bits, hinges, chair legs, sockets, bearings — across electrical and lighting, fastening and joining, pipe and tubing and hose fittings, power transmission, hand tools, abrading and polishing, fabricating, automotive and motorcycle, DIY and lab and scientific. The tools are specified properly. The 5-in-1 mini ratchet wrench at $10.34 is Cr-V steel, nickel plated, 134mm with a 6.35mm socket at 114g. The 1/4-inch drive torque wrench at $22.03 covers 5 to 25 N.m, dual-direction adjustable, 72-tooth, with ±3% stated deviation. At the top, a high-accuracy digital 3/8-inch torque wrench covering 6.75 to 135 N.m with buzzer and LED flash across four units of measure runs $116.11. The terms are the reason to buy here. Warranty is 365 days as standard, with selected products at two to three years. Returns run 30 days, with the first return free on US orders of $30 or less and $5.99 deducted on subsequent returns from the same order. Standard delivery is six to sixteen days with UPS Express at two to seven, and the company replies to 97% of its negative reviews, typically within 48 hours — which is the part that matters when the wrong size arrives. It holds 4.0 out of 5 across 493 Trustpilot reviews. Order early, and check the part number twice.

Representative stock includes Chicago screws, quick-release pins, fuel injectors, grommets, leather rivets, router bits, torque wrenches, hinges, chair legs, sockets and bearings.
Verified product specifications. The High Accuracy Digital Torque Wrench, 3/8-inch drive covering 6.75 to 135 N.m with buzzer and LED flash across four units of measure, runs $116.11 against a $129.01 list, weighing 1,580g. The 1/4-inch drive torque wrench covering 5 to 25 N.m is dual-direction adjustable with a 72-tooth mechanism at $22.03, measuring 250mm with ±3% stated deviation at 400g. The 5-in-1 Mini Ratchet Wrench Set, an offset reversible screwdriver covering Phillips, slotted, hex and Torx, runs $10.34 in most colours, built in chrome-vanadium steel with nickel plating, 134mm long with a 6.35mm socket at 114g. A California Proposition 65 warning appears on the torque wrench listing; no UL, CE or ISO certification claims were found.
Shipping to the United States runs standard in six to sixteen days, UPS Express in two to seven days, and Air Express in six to thirteen days for orders over 22lb, after one to two days of processing. PO boxes and military addresses are not served, and extra fees apply to Hawaii, Alaska, Puerto Rico and Guam. Note that the free-shipping threshold is stated inconsistently across the site — the shipping page gives free standard US shipping over $30 while product pages state over $20.
Returns run 30 days from receipt. The first return is free on US orders of $30 or less, with $5.99 deducted from subsequent returns on the same order; above $30 or outside the US, Harfington states it is not responsible for the return shipping fee, and wholesale returns may carry a 30 to 50% restocking fee. Refunds are processed in one to three business days after the warehouse receives the item, then five to ten business days to reach the bank. Warranty is 365 days as standard from delivery, with selected products carrying two to three years, covering manufacturing defects under normal use. A wholesale programme offers tiered discounts from 5 to 25% depending on order value. Harfington holds 4.0 out of 5 across 493 Trustpilot reviews and replies to 97% of negative reviews, typically within 48 hours; the most common complaint concerns receiving the wrong size or item, so checking the part specification carefully before ordering is worthwhile.

About this review
How this was written, who paid for what, and how the verdict stays independent.
Is this Harfington review sponsored?
No. Harfington did not pay for this write-up, see it before publication, or have any say in the verdict. If we earn anything it is a commission after you buy, and it comes out of the merchant’s margin rather than your price.
How was the Harfington assessed?
By using it and by checking the claims made about it against what it actually does. Where our time with something has been limited, the review says so rather than implying more testing than happened.
What else have you reviewed in Gear & Equipment?
Everything in Gear & Equipment sits in the review library, where you can filter by budget and sort by rating, price or how recently it landed.
Do you update reviews after publishing?
Yes — when a product changes, when a price moves for good, or when we get something wrong. Corrections are made on the piece itself with a note saying what changed.
