Short background on the manufacturer
Snap-on was founded in 1920 by Joseph Johnson and William Seidemann in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, originally as the Snap-on Wrench Company. The company pioneered the concept of interchangeable sockets that would "snap on" to handles, with their original slogan being "5 do the work of 50." In 1930, the company's headquarters moved to Kenosha, Wisconsin, where it remains today. Snap-on has grown to become one of the largest and most respected manufacturers of high-end professional tools in the world, particularly for the automotive, aviation, and industrial markets. The company is known for its premium quality, innovative designs, and its unique mobile van sales model that brings tools directly to professional mechanics' workplaces.
Release date or age of item
Based on Snap-on's dating system, this socket likely dates from the 1990s to early 2000s. Snap-on tools typically have date codes stamped on them, though some specialty items like spark plug sockets may not always display these codes prominently. The S9704KA model has been in production for several decades with minor design modifications over time.
