This 72-piece Facom socket set (RL.151-EP72PB) is designed for professionals and serious DIYers needing a comprehensive and portable solution for various mechanical tasks. Its key benefit is the wide range of sockets and bits, all organized within a durable TWIN BOX case with an integrated ergonomic handle for easy transport. A minor caveat is that the specialized bit sockets might require adapter usage for certain applications not directly matching the drive size.

The TWIN BOX case is designed for durability with resistant plastic and metal latches. It features an integrated ergonomic handle for comfortable transport and keeps all 72 pieces securely organized.
Yes, the set includes a selection of both metric (mm) and imperial (in) standard 6-point and 12-point sockets.
While the bit sockets are designed for manual use with the included 1/4in drive tools, they can potentially be used with a compatible 1/4in hex impact driver or drill adapter. However, this is not their primary intended use and may void warranty if damage occurs.
The set includes Slotted, Phillips(r), Pozidriv(r), Hex, and Torx(r) bit sockets.
The set is built to professional standards for durability. However, its 1/4in drive is best suited for medium-duty and precision tasks rather than heavy-duty applications that might require larger drive sizes (e.g., 1/2in or 3/4in).
Keep the tools clean and dry. After use, wipe them with a cloth. Store the set in a dry environment. For long-term storage or humid conditions, a light coat of oil can be applied to metal parts.
Facom generally offers a lifetime warranty on manufacturing defects for their hand tools. It is recommended to check the specific warranty terms provided by the retailer or Facom for this particular set.
Check the direction switch on the ratchet; ensure it is firmly set. Inspect the internal gears for debris and clean if necessary. If damage is suspected, contact customer support.
Verify you are using the correct size socket or bit for the fastener. Ensure the drive mechanism (ratchet, handle) is clean and free of obstructions. Check if the fastener head is damaged, preventing a proper fit.
Ensure the case is closed properly and no tools are obstructing the latches. If stiff, a small amount of lubricant (e.g., graphite or silicone spray) applied sparingly to the hinge and latch mechanism can help.
Double-check all compartments within the TWIN BOX case, including under other tools. If a tool is confirmed missing, contact the place of purchase or Facom customer service for replacement options.
Setup:
This set requires no assembly. Each socket and bit is housed within its designated spot in the TWIN BOX case. Simply open the case latches and select the required tool.
Compatibility:
The primary drive size for this set is 1/4in. The included ratchet, extensions, and T-handle are all designed for this drive. The bit sockets are designed to fit into the 1/4in drive tools or can be used with a standard 1/4in hex bit driver if preferred.
