Product Information
Full details
The Facom NSD.19L is a heavy-duty, 19mm long-reach impact socket designed for automotive technicians and industrial professionals who require reliable high-torque performance. Featuring a 12-point design for better fastener engagement and a robust manganese phosphate finish, it is built to withstand the rigors of pneumatic and electric impact tools, though users should note that the 12-point geometry requires careful alignment to prevent rounding on extremely rusted or damaged bolt heads compared to a 6-point alternative.

FAQs
Can I use this socket with a standard hand-operated ratchet?
Yes, it is compatible with all 1/2-inch drive hand tools, though it is specifically hardened for impact use.
Is this socket safe to use with a high-torque pneumatic impact gun?
Yes, the NSD.19L is designed specifically for high-torque impact environments.
Does the 12-point head fit 6-point bolts?
Yes, the 12-point design is compatible with both 6-point and 12-point fasteners of the same size.
What is the total length of the socket?
The socket measures 82mm in total length.
How do I maintain the manganese phosphate finish?
Simply wipe it clean with a rag after use. The finish is designed to be low-maintenance and resistant to wear.
Is there a specific orientation for the 12-point socket?
No, the 12-point design allows for multiple indexing positions on the bolt head.
Troubleshooting
Socket slips or rounds off the bolt head
Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener. If the bolt is rusted, use a penetrating oil and check if a 6-point socket is available for extreme cases.
Socket becomes stuck on the impact wrench
Check the friction ring on the tool's anvil. If the fit is too tight, clean the anvil and the internal square drive of the socket to remove debris.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High durability under repeated impact force
- Extended length is ideal for deep-set bolts
- Corrosion-resistant manganese phosphate coating
- High-quality steel construction standard to Facom tools
Cons
- 12-point design may be more prone to rounding stubborn fasteners than 6-point sockets
- Long reach can cause increased vibration if not seated perfectly
- Not intended for non-impact standard hand-tool use when space is ultra-limited
Setup, Compatibility & Care
This socket is designed for use with 1/2-inch drive power tools. Always use a friction ring or detent pin-compatible impact wrench to secure the socket before use.
Care Instructions:
- Wipe down with a clean, dry cloth after use to remove grease and metal dust.
- Periodically inspect the internal 12-point splines for signs of chipping or deformity.
- Store in a dry environment to maintain the integrity of the manganese phosphate finish.
- Do not use chrome-plated hand tool adapters with this socket, as they may shatter under impact force.
