Description

1/2-Inch Drive Extension Bar, 600mm Chrome Vanadium Steel

Brief Overview

This 600mm extension bar extends your reach in confined spaces and deep-set fastener applications where standard socket depth falls short. Manufactured from chrome vanadium steel with a polished chrome finish, it delivers reliable performance in heavy automotive, industrial, and mechanical work. For shorter reach applications, consider complementary shorter 250mm extension options or 75mm quick-access extensions to round out your socket system.

Key Features

  • 600mm Extended Reach: Provides substantial length for access to recessed or hard-to-reach fasteners
  • 1/2-Inch Drive Compatibility: Male square drive fits all standard 1/2-inch drive sockets and ratchets
  • Chrome Vanadium Construction: Durable alloy steel resists deformation under heavy torque
  • Polished Chrome Plating: Corrosion resistance and professional appearance; easy to clean and maintain
  • Detent Lock Feature: Recessed locking mechanism on male end ensures secure connection and prevents accidental separation during use
  • Fixed Rigid Design: No moving joints; single-piece construction eliminates flex and wobble

Business Advantages for Resellers

  • High Demand Item: Extension bars are wear items and consumables in professional shops; mechanics stock multiple lengths
  • Profit-Friendly Pricing: Low manufacturing cost relative to market positioning allows healthy margins on bulk orders
  • Essential Stock: Complements socket sets and ratchet systems; drives add-on sales when bundled with drive tools
  • Durable Category: Chrome vanadium construction means lower return rates compared to economy alternatives
  • Cross-Sell Potential: Customers buying this length often need shorter extensions for versatility—create bundle deals
