Brief Overview

This 1/2″ drive, 6-point long hand socket delivers the extended reach your shop needs for fasteners in tight or recessed spaces.

Practical Applications

  • Automotive Service: Engine bay fasteners, suspension components, and transmission access points
  • Heavy Equipment Maintenance: Bolts in confined areas where standard-length sockets cannot reach
  • Industrial Assembly: Recessed fasteners in machinery and structural frameworks
  • General Mechanical Work: Any application requiring reliable hex fastener engagement with extended reach

Bottom Line

Stock these sockets in bulk to meet consistent shop demand. The 6-point profile prevents rounding of worn fasteners—a common pain point that drives repeat purchases. Pair with complementary hand tool assortments to round out your offering and increase order value per customer transaction.
