Gearwrench 1/4" Drive 12 Point Deep Socket, 1/2" 80228-APX

Gearwrench professional-grade hand tool designed by Apex Tool Group for enhanced access and productivity. This deep-well socket is specifically engineered to reach fasteners on long threaded studs and in recessed areas where standard-length sockets cannot engage. Key Features Off-Corner Loading Technology virtually eliminates fastener rounding by shifting contact pressure to the flat sides of the bolt rather than the corners. 12-Point (Double Hex) Design provides twice as many entry positions as a 6-point socket, making it much easier to engage fasteners in extremely tight or restricted spaces. Chrome Alloy Steel construction is heat-treated to deliver maximum strength and a long service life under heavy-duty professional use. Full Polish Chrome Finish provides a mirror-like surface that is highly resistant to rust and corrosion while making it easy to wipe clean of oil and grease. Knurled Metric Ring allows for quick visual identification, helping you instantly distinguish this metric socket from double-line SAE versions. Hard Stamped Size Markings ensure that the 15mm identification remains permanent and easy to read even after years of heavy shop use. Meets or Exceeds ASME B107.5M specifications, guaranteeing the tool meets rigorous professional safety and performance standards.
