🔩 Product Highlights & Key Features

Robust 1″ Drive Interface

Built to handle the power of 1‑inch square drive impact tools — ideal for heavy‑duty automotive, agricultural, and industrial torque applications where maximum leverage and durability are critical.

Extended Deep‑Well Design (2‑3/16″ Depth)

The deep socket profile provides extended reach into recessed nuts and bolts or long studs, making it perfect for engines, suspension components, frames, and structural fasteners that standard sockets can’t access.

12‑Point Configuration for Faster Engagement

The 12‑point geometry enables quicker alignment and engagement with fastener heads from multiple angles. This reduces effort and speeds up workflow — especially useful when working in tight spaces where rotation is limited.
