5-Piece 1/2" Drive 12-Point Hub-Nut Socket Set with Hex Adapters, Cr-Mo Steel
Brief Overview
This is a specialized socket set designed specifically for hub-nut fastening—a critical component in wheel assembly and disassembly work. The set combines three deep 12-point hub-nut sockets with two hex-drive adapters, all machined from Cr-Mo steel for impact-rated durability. The blue molded plastic case with foam insert keeps all components organized and ready for transport to the job site. For shops handling regular wheel service, this set provides the exact geometry needed to prevent rounding on stubborn fasteners. Pair this with complementary tools like heavy-duty wheel nut sockets or shaft-specific 12-point socket sets to build a complete wheel service package.
Key Features
- 3x Deep 12-Point Hub-Nut Sockets: Scalloped internal profiles (32mm, 30mm, 24mm) designed to grip hubs firmly without slippage
- 2x Hex Drive Adapters: H17 (56mm height) and H14 (55mm height) for flexible fastener engagement
- Cr-Mo Steel Construction: Impact-rated material resists deformation and extends tool life under heavy use
- 1/2" Drive Compatible: Works with all standard 1/2" drive ratchets and impact tools
- Organized Carry Case: Blue molded plastic case with labeled foam inserts prevents loss and simplifies inventory
- Professional Markings: White-stamped size identifications on each socket for quick recognition
Why Resellers Choose This Set
Shop Efficiency: Hub-nut work demands precision. Generic sockets cause cam-out and fastener rounding. This set eliminates callbacks and customer frustration by delivering the correct geometry every time.
Market Demand: Wheel service is a high-frequency repair task. Having dedicated hub-nut tooling positions your shop as equipped for professional-grade work, justifying premium labor rates.
Bulk Order Potential: This is an entry-level set for shops building their hub service capability. Once established, shops typically order multiple sets for different bays or upgrade to larger configurations—creating repeat revenue.
Durability = Lower Replacement Rate: Cr-Mo steel means fewer returns and warranty claims compared to cheaper alternatives. Better margins, less administrative headache.
