1/2-Inch Drive Extension Bar, 250mm Chrome Vanadium
Brief Overview
This 250mm extension bar is a core accessory for any professional socket set, designed to reach fasteners in confined or recessed spaces. Built from chrome vanadium steel with a polished chrome finish, it delivers the durability and corrosion resistance expected in high-volume shop environments. The spring ball detent on the male drive end ensures sockets stay seated during use, while the female socket end features a retaining pin hole for secure attachment. Perfect as a standalone purchase or bundled with socket sets for resale. Pair this with shorter 150mm extensions or longer 400mm bars to build a complete extension system for your customers.
