1/2" Drive 6-Point Long Hand Socket

Overview

This is a precision 6-point long hand socket designed for mechanics and technicians who need extended reach on deep fasteners. The chrome-plated finish provides corrosion resistance and durability in demanding shop environments. Available in a comprehensive 24-piece range (8mm through 36mm), this socket delivers the accuracy and longevity your customers expect from professional-grade hand tools. When you need complementary tools, consider pairing these with additional 6-point socket options to maximize shop coverage.

Key Features

• 6-Point Hexagonal Design: Reduces cam-out risk compared to 12-point alternatives, providing secure grip on bolt heads and nuts even under high manual pressure
• Long Format (77mm Overall Length): Extends reach into recessed fastening points and tight engine compartments where standard sockets cannot access
• Chrome-Plated Finish: Delivers corrosion resistance and a professional appearance; maintains brightness through repeated use
• Knurled Grip Band: Embossed texture near the lower section improves hand control during operation, particularly important when working with larger socket sizes
• Stamped Size Markings: Clearly embossed designation for quick identification in a busy tool drawer
• 1/2" Square Drive: Standard connection compatible with all 1/2" drive ratchets, extensions, and pneumatic tools

Business Advantages for Resellers

Volume & Margin Opportunity: The 24-piece range addresses the full spectrum of fastener sizes across automotive, light industrial, and general maintenance applications. Customers purchasing complete sets generate higher transaction values than single-socket purchases.

Customer Retention: Offering this range positions your shop as a single-source supplier for deep socket work, reducing customer defections to competitors for specialty sizes.

Durability = Repeat Sales: The 6-point design and chrome finish extend service life, but users will eventually need replacements as tools wear. This ensures recurring orders.

Workshop Essential: Unlike specialized tools, deep sockets see constant use in any professional shop—transmission work, suspension fasteners, engine block bolts. This is not a niche product.

• T: Wall thickness at socket opening
• L: Overall length

Why Resellers Choose This Product

The 6-point design is mechanically superior to 12-point for manual work—it concentrates contact force across fewer surfaces, distributing pressure more evenly and preventing the rounding damage that costs customers money in stripped fasteners. The extended 77mm length is not excessive; it's precisely calibrated for accessibility without creating unnecessary bulk in a tool drawer.

This is the backbone socket range for any professional shop. Stock depth ensures you're not losing sales to competitors who have the sizes your customers need.
