Description

Hand Socket 1/2-Inch Drive 6-Point 34mm

Brief Overview

This 34mm 6-point hand socket is engineered for demanding automotive, industrial, and heavy equipment applications where reliable fastener engagement is critical. The 6-point hexagonal design provides superior grip and reduces the risk of cam-out compared to 12-point alternatives—essential when working with high-torque applications or corroded fasteners. Built with satin chrome finish and a spring-loaded detent ball for secure 1/2-inch drive retention, this socket delivers the precision and durability that professional technicians demand.

For comprehensive drive coverage, consider pairing this socket with our 32mm 6-point option or 36mm variant to expand your fastener range across medium to heavy industrial work.

Key Features

  • 6-Point Internal Design: Maximizes contact with fastener corners, reducing cam-out and fastener damage—critical for high-torque work
  • Satin Chrome Finish: Durable corrosion-resistant coating suitable for workshop and field conditions
  • Spring-Loaded Detent Ball: Ensures secure seating on 1/2-inch drive tools without slipping during use
  • Knurled Grip Band: Textured body section improves handling control and reduces accidental drops
  • Chamfered Mouth: Facilitates quick and accurate fastener alignment
  • Precision Machined: Tight tolerances guarantee proper fit on standard 1/2-inch drive ratchets, breaker bars, and pneumatic tools

Business Advantages for Resellers

  • High Turnover Potential: The 34mm size covers large fasteners common in heavy industrial, automotive, and agricultural equipment—a frequently requested size
  • Professional Confidence: Mechanics and technicians recognize 6-point sockets as the standard for demanding work; this builds repeat customer trust
  • Bulk Order Margins: Stock this size as part of a complete 1/2-inch drive socket range to increase average transaction value
  • Minimal Returns: Chrome-plated steel construction and precision machining mean durability and customer satisfaction
  • Shelf-Stable Inventory: Hand tools require no maintenance, no expiration, and hold value indefinitely
