The Facom NKD.36L long impact socket is a specialized tool designed for professional mechanics and industrial technicians who require reliable, heavy-duty fastening solutions. Its primary benefit is the 85mm extended length combined with a robust 3/4 inch square drive, which allows for effortless access to deep-set bolts in high-torque environments; however, users should note that its specific 36mm size and 12-point configuration are intended for industrial-grade hardware and may not be suitable for standard automotive fasteners.

Yes, as long as your hand ratchet has a 3/4 inch square drive, though this socket is primarily optimized for impact use.
Yes, a 12-point socket will fit 6-point fasteners, but ensure the tool is fully engaged to avoid damaging the corners of the bolt.
It provides a durable, matte surface that is highly resistant to corrosion and holds lubricant better than standard black oxide finishes.
Facom tools are generally backed by professional-grade warranties; consult your specific retailer or the Facom official website for regional warranty terms.
While the socket is designed for industrial impact tools, always operate within the torque limits specified by your impact wrench manufacturer.
Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener and verify that the bolt head matches the 36mm 12-point specification.
Check the friction ring or detent pin on your impact wrench anvil and ensure there is no debris preventing easy removal.
To use this socket, ensure your impact wrench is equipped with a 3/4 inch anvil. Always check that the locking pin or retaining ring on your impact wrench is functioning to secure the socket during high-speed rotation. For safety, verify that the 36mm bolt is compatible with a 12-point socket to prevent slippage. Care for the tool is straightforward: after use in oily or greasy environments, wipe the socket down with a clean, dry rag. Periodically apply a light coating of machine oil if the socket is stored in high-humidity areas to maintain the integrity of the manganese phosphate finish. Do not use chrome-plated hand tool sockets for impact applications, as they may shatter under load.
