The socket is crafted from cold-forged Chrome Vanadium steel, known for its strength and durability.
This socket features a 3/8" square drive, compatible with standard 3/8" drive tools.
WallDrive is a socket configuration designed to grip the fastener on its flats rather than the corners, which provides better torque and reduces the likelihood of rounding off the fastener.
While made of strong Chrome Vanadium steel, this socket has a polished chrome finish. For heavy impact use, impact-rated sockets (typically black oxide or phosphate finish) are generally recommended to prevent chipping of the chrome plating.
Wipe the socket clean with a dry cloth. For tougher grime, use a slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
The product is backed by a lifetime guarantee, ensuring your investment is protected.
This is a 21mm socket, which is a metric measurement. It is designed for metric fasteners of that size.
Verify that the fastener is indeed 21mm and that the socket's interior is free from debris. Ensure you are using the correct drive size (3/8").
Confirm the socket is fully seated on the fastener. Check if the fastener head is damaged or rounded, in which case the WallDrive feature may be less effective. Ensure your drive tool is functioning correctly.
Wipe the socket dry immediately and store it in a dry location. For minor surface rust, a soft brush or fine steel wool can be used carefully, followed by thorough drying and a light application of oil. This is uncommon due to the chrome plating.
Setup & Compatibility:
This socket is designed for immediate use with any standard 3/8" square drive tool, such as ratchets, breaker bars, or torque wrenches. Ensure the drive size of your tool matches the socket's 3/8" drive. The 21mm opening is suitable for fasteners of the same measurement.
