Description

1/2-Inch Drive 12-Point Long Hand Socket, 8-36mm Range

Brief Overview

This 12-point long hand socket is engineered for professionals who demand precision, durability, and reliable fastener engagement. The extended length design reaches recessed fasteners and tight spaces where standard sockets fall short. Chrome-plated construction resists corrosion while the knurled grip ring provides positive hand control during operation. Available across a comprehensive 8-36mm size range, these sockets integrate seamlessly into any mechanic's toolkit. For shops preferring alternative profiles, 6-point long sockets offer different grip geometry for specific applications.
