Electromagnetic Injection Valve Cap Socket – 1/2″ Drive, 38mm

Brief Overview

This is a specialized deep-well socket engineered specifically for the electromagnetic injection valve cap assembly found on Scania 340 engines. The scalloped internal profile with multiple recessed flats ensures positive engagement with the cap's matching geometry, preventing slippage during high-torque operations. If you're managing a Scania-focused service shop or fleet maintenance operation, this socket is essential. For broader coverage of injection system maintenance, consider pairing this with specialized injection nozzle extraction tools or dedicated injector cap removal sockets to handle the full range of fuel system service tasks.

Key Features

• Deep-well construction – Extended reach into recessed valve caps without obstruction
• Scalloped internal profile – Multiple recessed flats engage the cap geometry for positive grip and prevent cam-out
• 1/2-inch square drive – Compatible with standard ratchets, breaker bars, and pneumatic tools
• 38mm socket size – Precisely matched to Scania 340 electromagnetic injection valve caps
• Durable steel construction – Coated finish resists corrosion and withstands repeated use in service environments
• Smooth exterior taper – Allows clean insertion and removal from tight engine compartment spaces

Real-World Application Context

This socket is built for professional diesel engine technicians managing Scania injection systems. The electromagnetic valve cap requires careful handling—incorrect removal techniques strip the engagement surfaces and force expensive cap replacement. This tool eliminates guesswork and damage, reducing labor hours on injection service tasks and protecting your margin on high-value diesel engine work.

Stock this socket if you serve heavy-duty truck fleets, independent Scania service centers, or mobile diesel mechanics. The specialized nature means strong margins and customer loyalty among shops that work on these platforms.
