FAQs

What materials is the socket made of?

The socket is made of high-quality Chrome Vanadium Steel (CRV).

What is the benefit of the 12-point design?

The 12-point design provides multiple contact points for a secure grip and reduces the chance of stripping fasteners.

How do I clean the socket?

Wipe the socket clean after each use to remove any debris. A wire brush can remove stubborn dirt or rust.

Can I use this socket with an impact wrench?

While this socket can be used with an impact wrench, it is recommended to use an impact-rated socket for heavy-duty impact applications.

How should I store the socket?

Store the socket in a clean, dry place to prevent rust and corrosion.

What is the drive size of the socket?

The drive size varies depending on the specific product. Check the product specifications or the markings on the socket to determine the drive size.

What if the socket gets stuck on a bolt?

If the socket is stuck, try using a penetrating oil and gently tapping the socket with a hammer. Avoid excessive force to prevent damage.

Troubleshooting

Socket doesn't fit the fastener.

Ensure you are using the correct size socket (17mm) for the fastener. Check for any damage to the socket or the fastener.

Socket slips or strips the fastener.

Ensure the socket is fully engaged with the fastener before applying force. Avoid applying excessive force. Consider using a different type of socket (e.g., impact socket) for tighter fasteners if necessary.

Rust or corrosion on the socket.

Clean the socket with a wire brush and apply a light coat of oil to prevent further corrosion. Store the socket in a dry place.
