Why This Socket Matters

The 60mm opening positions this socket at the upper end of hand-tool fastening capacity—ideal for applications where pneumatic or electric impact tools are impractical or where controlled torque application is required. The 6-point profile provides superior corner protection compared to 12-point alternatives, making it the preferred choice for demanding industrial environments where fastener damage directly impacts operational costs.

Stock this size confidently. Resellers report consistent demand for large-capacity 1-inch sockets in automotive repair, machinery maintenance, and structural assembly sectors. Pair with your existing smaller socket inventory to capture the full spectrum of professional fastening needs.
