Description

3/4-Inch Drive Mercedes Actros Axle Bolt Socket, EP32, 90mm Deep, Cr-Mo

Brief Overview

This is a purpose-built socket for Mercedes-Benz Actros axle mounting bolt service. The multi-lobed EP32 profile matches the specific geometry of Actros axle fasteners, eliminating the risk of rounding that comes with improvised solutions. Designed for the 3/4-inch square drive standard used in heavy commercial truck workshops, this socket pairs well with other truck axle service solutions and fits seamlessly into professional shop workflows.

Key Features

  • Multi-Lobed EP32 Profile: Precisely engineered to engage Actros axle bolts without slipping or cam-out
  • 90mm Deep Design: Extended length reaches recessed mounting points without adapter stacking
  • 3/4-Inch Square Drive: Rated for impact wrench use on high-torque commercial applications
  • Chromium-Molybdenum Construction: Premium steel alloy rated for shock loads and sustained torque
  • Manganese Phosphate Finish: Corrosion-resistant coating extends service life in outdoor and salty environments
  • Retaining Pin Hole: Integrated collar prevents accidental ejection during pneumatic tool use

Why This Matters for Your Shop

Service Efficiency: Axle bolt sockets are wear items in commercial truck service. Rounding a bolt requires bolt extraction and thread repair—costly labor that this socket prevents. Stocking a purpose-designed tool reduces comebacks and speeds turnaround on Actros fleet maintenance.

Professional Durability: Cr-Mo construction and manganese phosphate finish withstand repeated impact cycles. Unlike softer chrome-plated alternatives, this socket maintains profile integrity through hundreds of service cycles.

Inventory Management: This is a consumable-level wear part for high-volume truck shops. Bundle it with additional axle service sockets for fleet service contracts or wholesale distributions.

The Bottom Line

For Actros-heavy shops, this socket is not optional—it's foundational infrastructure. The alternative (rounded bolts, damaged studs, warranty claims) costs far more than the socket itself. Stock it, and you eliminate a recurring pain point in your service operations.
