Product Information

Full details

The Sealey SMC37 is an essential tool designed for motorcycle mechanics and DIY enthusiasts who need to perform routine wheel maintenance on bikes featuring internal hex axles. With its 1/2-inch square drive and H24 hex profile, it provides the leverage and grip necessary to safely remove front and rear motorcycle wheels, though it is specifically sized for H24 fittings and will not work on axles requiring different hex dimensions.

FAQs

Can I use this with an impact wrench?

While the tool is built for high loads, it is recommended to use hand tools to avoid exceeding the material limits of the axle or the socket itself.

Will this fit my 2020 Kawasaki Ninja?

If your specific model uses a 24mm internal hex axle, the SMC37 is fully compatible.

Is the socket length sufficient for all bikes?

The 53mm length is designed to accommodate most recessed axle designs found on modern motorcycles.

Does it come with a lifetime warranty?

Sealey offers a standard warranty for manufacturing defects; check your local dealer or the Sealey website for specific terms.

How do I maintain the finish?

Keeping the socket clean and lightly oiled will prevent oxidation.

Troubleshooting

Socket does not fit into the axle

Verify the axle size is H24; clear any debris or dried thread locker from the axle hex recess.

Socket slips under high torque

Ensure the socket is fully seated within the axle head and the drive tool is perfectly aligned with the axis of the axle.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure longevity, always verify that your motorcycle’s internal axle hex measurement is exactly 24mm before use. The socket connects directly to any standard 1/2-inch drive ratchet, breaker bar, or torque wrench. After use, wipe the socket clean with a dry, lint-free cloth to remove grease and debris. Store in a cool, dry environment, such as a drawer or tool organizer, to prevent surface corrosion and maintain the integrity of the hex edges.
