Product Information
Full details
The Facom JX.25 is an essential tool for professional mechanics and dedicated DIY enthusiasts who require precision-engineered T25 Torx fastening. Its primary benefit is a secure, high-torque fit that minimizes the risk of fastener cam-out, making it ideal for automotive and machinery maintenance; however, users should note that as a specific T25-sized bit, it is not a universal solution for all Torx head sizes and requires a compatible 3/8-inch drive handle.

FAQs
Can I use this with a 1/4-inch drive ratchet?
No, this is specifically designed for 3/8-inch drive tools. You would need a 1/4-inch to 3/8-inch adapter to make it work.
Is the bit replaceable?
Yes, the JX.25 features a removable bit design for added versatility.
What is the total length of the tool?
The overall length of the JX.25 is 46mm.
Does this come with a warranty?
Facom tools generally include a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects; consult your specific retailer for regional policy details.
Is it safe for use with impact guns?
While durable, this is a standard bit socket. It is recommended to use hand tools for precision, as impact guns may exceed the design limits of non-impact rated bits.
Troubleshooting
Socket slips off the ratchet head
Check that the ratchet drive spring-loaded ball is functioning correctly and is fully engaged in the socket detent.
Bit feels loose in the fastener head
Ensure the fastener head is clear of dirt or paint buildup; use a pick to clean the Torx recess before insertion.
Difficulty removing the bit from the socket
Apply a small amount of penetrating oil to the junction if it has seized due to debris, then use pliers to pull it straight out.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the JX.25, simply attach the socket to your standard 3/8-inch square drive ratchet or torque wrench until it clicks into place. This tool is compatible with all standard 3/8-inch drive accessories. To maintain the life of the tool, wipe it down with a clean, dry cloth after use to remove grease and debris. Store it in a dry tool chest to prevent moisture buildup on the chrome surface. Should the bit become damaged, use appropriate tools to extract and replace the bit component from the 3/8-inch socket housing.
