Troubleshooting

Socket does not hold fastener securely

Ensure the fastener head and the socket's magnet are clean and free of debris. The fastener may be damaged or excessively dirty, reducing magnetic grip. Check that the socket is fully seated on the fastener.

Difficulty reaching the fastener

Verify that the socket's 63mm depth is sufficient for the application. Use a compatible 3/8"" drive extension bar if needed to bridge gaps. Ensure the fastener head is accessible and not obstructed.

Socket feels loose on the drive tool

Check that the 3/8"" drive tool is in good condition and the drive square is not worn. Ensure the socket is fully engaged with the drive tool's square opening.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Securely holds fasteners with its magnetic tip.
  • Deep profile reaches recessed or hard-to-access bolts.
  • Durable chrome vanadium construction ensures longevity.
  • Reduces the risk of dropped parts in confined spaces.

Cons

  • Single 14mm size may not suit all applications.
  • Magnetic strength can be reduced by dirt or damage on fasteners.
  • Requires a 3/8"" drive tool for operation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: This is a hand tool socket and requires no setup beyond attaching it to a compatible 3/8"" drive ratchet, extension, or impact wrench.

Compatibility: The socket is designed for 3/8"" square drive tools. It is specifically sized for 14mm hex fasteners. Ensure your tool's drive size matches the socket.

Care: To maintain the magnetic strength and performance, clean the socket after each use. Remove any dirt, grease, or metal shavings, especially from the magnet area. A clean cloth is usually sufficient. Avoid prolonged exposure to extreme heat or corrosive environments. Store in a dry place.
