Description

Brake Caliper Socket 10PT, 1/2" Drive, 20mm, Extended Length

Brief Overview

This is a purpose-built brake caliper socket engineered specifically for Porsche and Audi A8 brake system maintenance. The 10-point spline design grips the caliper mounting fastener without slipping or rounding, eliminating the frustration of stripped fasteners on high-value vehicles. If your shop handles European luxury vehicles, this socket is non-negotiable. Pair it with complementary brake caliper hex sockets or consider a complete 5-piece brake caliper pentagon socket set for maximum application coverage across your customer base.

Key Features

  • 10-Point Spline Profile: Precise engagement with OEM brake caliper fasteners; prevents cam-out and fastener damage
  • Extended Length Design: Deep reach accommodates caliper mounting positions without extension bars
  • 1/2" Drive Compatible: Integrates seamlessly with standard ratchets, torque wrenches, and impact drivers
  • Impact-Rated Construction: Phosphate-coated steel handles both hand tool and pneumatic application
  • 20mm Hex Size: Direct fit for Porsche and Audi A8 brake caliper specifications
  • Retention Hole: Spring-loaded pin keeps socket seated on fastener during removal and installation
