Description

3/4-Inch 12-Point Hand Socket – 58mm Short Length

This is a precision-engineered 3/4-inch short hand socket designed for professional mechanics and industrial maintenance teams. The 12-point double-hex design provides superior grip on fasteners while reducing the risk of rounding, making it an essential addition to any socket set. Whether you're working in engine bays, machinery assembly, or confined spaces, the 58mm length strikes the balance between accessibility and reach that professionals demand. For applications requiring different working lengths, consider pairing this with shorter compact sockets or longer reach variants to build a complete size-graduated set.

Key Features

  • 12-Point Double-Hex Design: Engages fastener corners effectively with minimal cam-out risk; superior to 6-point for precision work and damaged fasteners.
  • 3/4-Inch Drive: Standard size for general automotive, industrial, and machinery applications; compatible with all 3/4" drive ratchets and breaker bars.
  • 58mm Overall Length: Optimal short-length geometry—compact enough for confined spaces, long enough for controlled leverage and accessibility.
  • Bright Chrome-Plated Finish: Durable nickel-chrome plating resists corrosion and oxidation; maintains aesthetic appeal for professional tool kits.
  • Chamfered Edges: Smooth entry guides fasteners into the socket without stripping or jamming.
  • Detent Pin Hole: Integrated retaining pin feature keeps the socket seated on your drive tool during overhead or awkward-angle work.
  • Stepped Cylindrical Profile: Optimized wall thickness balances strength with lightweight handling for extended use without fatigue.

Business Advantages for Resellers

  • High Demand Category: 3/4" hand sockets are staple consumables in service shops, fleet maintenance, and industrial facilities—consistent reorder potential.
  • Bulk Order Flexibility: Short-length variants like this 58mm are frequently ordered as part of graduated socket sets, encouraging larger purchase quantities.
  • Low Return Rate: Mechanic-grade construction and proven design mean fewer warranty claims and satisfied repeat customers.
  • Margin-Friendly: Affordable per-unit cost with reliable markup potential across retail and B2B channels.
  • Cross-Sell Opportunity: Customers purchasing one length often need multiple variants; recommend the full range of short-length 3/4" sockets to increase transaction value.
