The sockets are manufactured from high-quality Chrome Vanadium (CRV).
The set includes 1/4", 3/8", and 1/2" drive sockets.
The set includes T8, T10, T15, T20, T25, T27, T30, T40, T45, T50, T55, T60, and T70.
Store the set in the provided blow-moulded case, in a dry place to prevent rust and damage.
While the sockets are durable, it's best to avoid using them with an impact wrench, unless specifically rated for impact use. Excessive force can damage both the sockets and the fasteners.
If a socket gets stuck, try using a rubber mallet to tap it gently, or apply penetrating oil to the screw. Avoid using excessive force that could damage the socket or the screw head.
Yes, this set is suitable for both professional and DIY use due to its comprehensive size range and durable construction.
Double-check the socket size against the Torx screw. Make sure you are using the correct size; forcing a socket that is too small or too large can damage the screw and the socket.
Ensure the socket is fully engaged in the screw head before applying force. Apply force directly along the axis of the screw and use steady, controlled movements. If the screw is severely corroded, consider using a penetrating oil.
Store the sockets in a dry location. If rust appears, clean the sockets with a wire brush or a rust-removing solution, and then apply a light coating of oil.
