Long 12-Point Hand Socket Set, 4–13mm

Brief Overview

This is a precision-engineered socket set designed for professionals who demand reliability and accuracy in hand-tool applications. The set features long-reach (deep) 12-point sockets spanning 4–13mm, housed in a metal rail holder for organized storage and quick access. The 12-point design distributes load across more contact points than 6-point alternatives, reducing the risk of fastener rounding—a critical advantage when working with softer metals or delicate assemblies. Each socket is individually removable from the rail for flexible workshop use. For shops requiring broader coverage, 6-point deep sockets offer an alternative profile for specific applications.

Key Features

• 12-Point Internal Profile: Engages fasteners at 12 positions, minimizing cam-out and fastener damage compared to 6-point designs
• Long (Deep) Socket Style: Extended reach allows access to recessed or deeply-set fasteners without extension bars
• Chrome-Plated Finish: Corrosion-resistant, reflective surface for durability and visibility in workshop conditions
• Knurled Grip Band: Mid-section knurling provides secure hand grip and prevents slipping during manual operation
• Metal Rail Holder: Keeps sockets organized, prevents loss, and allows quick identification by size
• Size Range 4–13mm: Covers fasteners from precision work (4mm) to general maintenance tasks (13mm)
• Removable Design: Each socket clips from the rail for independent use with hand ratchets or manual tools
• Engraved Size Markings: Clear, permanent size identification on socket body

Why Choose This Set

The 12-point profile is the engineered choice for shops prioritizing fastener longevity and reduced rework. Unlike 6-point sockets that concentrate pressure on two contact points, 12-point design spreads load across the fastener head, protecting investment in both tools and materials. The long reach eliminates frustration with shallow fasteners while the removable design keeps your customers' toolboxes flexible and organized.

This is a foundational set for any professional mechanic's hand-tool collection—reliable, maintainable, and profitable to stock.
