11mm Hex Extra Reach Socket Wrench with Sliding T-Bar and Universal Joint
Brief Overview
This extra-reach sliding T-bar socket extension delivers precise fastener access in confined spaces and awkward angles. The integrated universal joint allows pivoting up to 90 degrees, making it essential for hard-to-reach assembly work where standard sockets fall short. The 11mm hex socket size covers a critical mid-range fastener spectrum. For mechanics working with smaller fasteners, consider pairing this with smaller 10mm socket extensions or stepping up to larger 12mm options to build a complete reach-extension inventory.
Key Features
- Extra-reach design: 392mm total length delivers maximum extension capability
- Sliding T-bar mechanism: Adjustable handle positioning (160mm travel) for ergonomic grip control
- Universal joint: 90-degree swivel articulation for angled fastener access
- 6-point hex socket: Precision-ground 11mm socket prevents cam-out on fasteners
- Chrome-plated finish: Corrosion-resistant coating for workshop durability
- Dual rubber collar stops: Secure locking positions along the shaft to prevent over-extension
- Locating studs: Hex-shaped detents along the shaft for positive positioning and torque control
Business Advantages for Resellers
- High-demand size: The 11mm socket size fills a critical gap in professional socket collections—covers frequent M9/M10 fastener applications
- Repeatable inventory turnover: Extra-reach extensions are workhorse items in body shops, precision assembly, and automotive service—mechanics order these repeatedly
- Margin opportunity: Universal joint flexibility commands premium pricing versus standard reach extensions
- Stocking strategy: This size sits in the "sweet spot" between smaller precision work (6–10mm) and mid-range automotive (12–16mm), making it an essential stock-keeper

Application Guidance
This tool excels in:
- Automotive assembly: Reaching fasteners in engine bays, under dashboards, and frame sections
- Precision machinery: Accessing embedded fasteners in tight mechanical assemblies
- Body shop work: Angled fastener access on fenders, doors, and panel installations
- Industrial maintenance: Confined-space fastener work where standard sockets cannot reach or articulate
The 11mm size is particularly suited for metric fastener work where M9 and M10 fasteners dominate.
Stock this size as a core inventory item. The combination of extra reach, articulation, and mid-range socket size makes it a daily-use tool for professional shops. Bulk orders are recommended—mechanics who discover this tool typically request multiple units to outfit different workstations.
