AB Tools 36mm Metric 1/2" Drive Deep Rear Hub Axle Nut Socket 12 Sided Bi-Hex

The 12-sided design provides twice as many grip points compared to a standard 6-sided socket, offering superior torque transfer and reducing the risk of slipping or rounding off the fastener, especially on tight or slightly worn nuts.

Yes, it is designed for a 1/2" drive, which is compatible with most standard ratchets, breaker bars, and torque wrenches.

Yes, it is manufactured from chrome molybdenum steel and is designed to be impact-ready, meaning it can withstand the forces generated by an impact gun.

The inner depth of the socket is 60mm, designed for reaching deeply recessed hub nuts and axles.

It is suitable for a range of vehicles including Audi, BMW, Ford, Honda, Nissan, Renault, Skoda, Seat, Toyota, Vauxhall, and VW, among others where a 36mm hub nut is present.

The socket is manufactured from high-strength chrome molybdenum steel for durability and performance.

This socket is specifically a 36mm metric size. It is not designed for imperial fasteners.

Verify that the fastener is indeed 36mm and not a different metric or imperial size. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the nut.

Confirm the socket is the correct size and fully engaged. If the nut is rounded, this socket's 12-sided design offers maximum grip, but severe rounding may require specialized repair methods.

The double deep design is intended for reach. Ensure no other components are obstructing access. Using a longer extension with your drive tool may be necessary if access is still limited.

Inspect for cracks or excessive wear. If damage is present, cease using the socket immediately to prevent further damage to the fastener or potential injury. Contact the manufacturer or retailer for a replacement if within warranty.
