This 1/2-inch drive long hand socket delivers reliable fastener engagement across a comprehensive 8-36mm size range, designed for technicians who demand extended reach in tight spaces. The 12-point internal profile accommodates both standard hex and double-hex fasteners, reducing the likelihood of cam-out compared to conventional solutions. Built from polished chrome-plated steel with a knurled grip band for secure handling, this socket is engineered for consistent performance in automotive, industrial, and maintenance applications. If you require alternative engagement profiles, our 6-point long hand socket range provides maximum torque capacity for stubborn fasteners.
