Product Information
Full details
The Bahco S51MC3H 51-piece socket set is designed for mechanics and DIY enthusiasts needing a versatile range of standard and deep sockets for various fastening tasks. Its primary benefit lies in its comprehensive selection of high-performance alloy steel sockets, offering durability and precision. A potential caveat is the included HDPE case, which may not offer the same robust protection as a metal toolbox for demanding professional environments.

FAQs
What material are the Bahco S51MC3H sockets made from?
The sockets are made from high-performance 50BV30 alloy steel with a micro matt finish.
What is the drive size for this set?
This set features a 3/8in drive size.
Does the set include both standard and deep sockets?
Yes, the set includes 12 x 3/8in standard hex sockets and 6 x 3/8in deep hex sockets.
What accessories are included with the socket set?
The set includes two 3/8in extension bars (75mm and 150mm), one 3/8in universal joint, and one 3/8in quick-release ratchet.
What standards does this socket set conform to?
The set conforms to ISO 1174 and DIN 3120 standards.
How should I clean and maintain the socket set?
Wipe sockets with a dry cloth after use. For tougher dirt, use a damp cloth and mild degreaser, then dry thoroughly. Store in the provided case. A light oil can be applied for long-term storage in humid conditions.
Is the storage case suitable for professional use?
The set comes in a high-density polythene (HDPE) case, which provides organized storage and moderate protection. For heavy-duty professional environments, users may prefer a more robust metal toolbox.
Troubleshooting
Socket does not grip fastener securely
Ensure you are using the correct socket size. Verify the socket is fully seated on the fastener and the drive. Check the socket's internal hex for wear or damage.
Ratchet mechanism slips or feels stiff
Inspect the ratchet for debris or damage. Apply a small amount of lubricating oil to the mechanism. If the issue persists, the ratchet may need replacement.
Extension bar or universal joint is difficult to attach/detach
Ensure the drive ends are clean and free of debris. Apply a small amount of penetrating oil if necessary. Do not force connections; check for bent drive tangs.
Case latches do not secure properly
Check that the latches are aligned correctly and not obstructed by debris. Ensure the case is not overfilled, preventing a flush closure.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
This set requires no complex setup. Simply select the appropriate socket size for your fastener, attach it to the ratchet or extension bar, and use the tool for tightening or loosening.
Compatibility:
The set uses a 3/8in drive system, making it compatible with any 3/8in drive ratchets, extension bars, and accessories. All included sockets are hex (six-sided) type.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: After use, wipe down sockets and accessories with a clean, dry cloth to remove dirt and grease. For stubborn residue, use a cloth lightly dampened with water or a mild degreaser, then dry thoroughly.
- Storage: Store the sockets and accessories in the provided HDPE case. Ensure each piece is securely seated in its designated spot to prevent damage and loss.
- Rust Prevention: Although the micro matt finish offers some protection, avoid prolonged exposure to moisture. Apply a light coat of oil to metal components if storing for extended periods in a humid environment.
- Ratchet Maintenance: Periodically check the ratchet mechanism. Apply a small amount of lubricating oil if it feels stiff. Avoid forcing the ratchet if it jams; inspect for debris.
