Cylinder Head Bolt Socket Tool, Torx E16, 1/2-Inch Drive, 140mm Length

Brief Overview

This cylinder head bolt socket tool is purpose-built for accessing recessed Torx E16 fasteners in confined engine compartments. The extended 140mm length and slim profile allow you to reach fasteners in hard-to-access locations where standard sockets fall short. The protective design prevents fastener slip-out during operation—a critical advantage when working with precision cylinder head applications. If you work with multiple Torx sizes, consider pairing this with smaller and larger E-Torx socket tools or comprehensive multi-size socket sets to streamline your inventory.

Why This Tool Matters

Cylinder head bolts demand precision—over-torque or cross-threading can lead to costly repairs. This socket's anti-slip design and recessed head protection eliminate guesswork during critical assembly work. The extended reach is not a convenience; it's a necessity on modern compact engine layouts where space is at a premium.

For shops handling routine cylinder head work, having the correct E-Torx socket in the right length prevents improvisation and callbacks. Stock this tool in your high-turnover section for mechanics who know that cutting corners on fastening tools costs time and credibility.
