Description

1/2-Inch Drive 12-Point Long Hand Socket

Overview

This 1/2-inch drive long hand socket delivers extended reach for fastening operations where standard depth sockets fall short. The 12-point design engages hex fasteners more quickly than traditional 6-point alternatives, reducing setup time on the bench or in the field. With a comprehensive 8-36mm size range and a polished chrome finish, these sockets are built for both precision assembly and heavy-duty shop work. For users requiring alternative point geometries, 6-point long hand sockets offer additional security on damaged fasteners.

Key Features

  • 12-Point Drive Pattern: Faster engagement on hex fasteners; reduces rotation needed for socket placement
  • Extended Reach Design: 77mm nominal length accommodates recessed or hard-to-access fasteners
  • Polished Chrome Finish: Corrosion-resistant, easy to clean, professional appearance
  • Knurled Grip Ring: Textured band near the middle improves handling during repetitive use
  • Precision Machined: Tight tolerances ensure consistent fit across the 8-36mm range
  • Chamfered Edges: Smooth transitions prevent damage to fastener corners during insertion
  • 1/2" Square Drive: Compatible with all standard 1/2-inch ratchets, breaker bars, and power tools

Why Resellers Choose This Product

This socket fills a critical gap in any professional toolkit. The 12-point geometry cuts setup time versus 6-point alternatives—a measurable advantage when productivity is tied to labor cost. The extended length opens up new job categories: recessed fasteners, assembled sub-assemblies, and confined spaces where standard sockets simply don't reach. Stock the full range and position yourself as a one-stop supplier for comprehensive socket coverage.

Application Notes

Ideal For:

  • Assembly operations requiring fastener access in tight or recessed areas
  • High-volume fastening where faster socket engagement improves throughput
  • General-purpose maintenance and repair across automotive, machinery, and industrial settings
  • Technicians preferring the speed of 12-point engagement over traditional hex-only designs

Material & Durability: Chrome-plated steel construction provides corrosion resistance and longevity in workshop environments. The 12-point recess will show wear under repeated use on severely damaged fasteners; keep 6-point long sockets on hand for salvage operations.
