FAQs

What vehicles is this socket set suitable for?

This set is designed for cars, light commercial vehicles, and HGVs that use exhaust gas temperature sensors with 13mm, 14mm, or 17mm hex bases.

What is the material of the sockets?

The sockets are made from durable chrome molybdenum steel.

What type of finish do the sockets have?

They have a black phosphate finish for added durability and corrosion resistance.

Are the sockets deep or shallow?

The set includes both deep and shallow versions of the 13mm, 14mm, and 17mm sockets.

What drive size is required for these sockets?

A 3/8" square drive is required.

Does the set come with a ratchet?

No, the set includes only the sockets and a storage case. A 3/8" drive ratchet or other tool is required separately.

How should I clean and store the sockets?

Clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth and store in the provided plastic case to protect against damage and corrosion.

Troubleshooting

Socket doesn't fit EGT sensor.

Verify you are using the correct 13mm, 14mm, or 17mm socket size for the specific sensor. Check for any debris or corrosion on the sensor hex that might be impeding fitment.

Socket slips on the EGT sensor fastener.

Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener. Clean the hex base of the sensor and the inside of the socket to remove any contaminants. The 6-point design should provide a secure grip; ensure the tool is not damaged.

Socket is difficult to attach to the ratchet.

Confirm you are using a 3/8" square drive ratchet. Ensure the drive mechanism on both the socket and the ratchet is clean and free of obstructions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: No specific setup is required beyond selecting the appropriate socket size for the EGT sensor. Ensure you have a compatible 3/8" square drive ratchet or breaker bar.

Compatibility: This set is designed for vehicles equipped with exhaust gas temperature sensors featuring 13mm, 14mm, or 17mm hex bases. It is compatible with any standard 3/8" drive tool.

Care: To maintain durability, clean the sockets after use with a dry or slightly damp cloth to remove any dirt or grease. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Store the sockets in the provided plastic case to prevent loss and protect them from corrosion. Periodically check the sockets for any signs of wear or damage.
