Ideal for servicing cars, trucks, utility trailers, and more (requires at least a 3-inch impact extension) Each socket well is extra deep to provide increased engagement with lug nuts and clearance for decorative caps The outer diameter is 1 to 2 mm smaller than other Tekton impact sockets, allowing for better access in tight lug nut wells Steep, 60-degree chamfered openings make it easy for the flip socket to slide over lug nuts Sizes are marked both with a high-visibility laser marking and a permanent stamped marking that won’t wear off Radiused corners prevent fastener round-off by applying force to a fastener’s flat sides, rather than its corners Each socket meets a minimum of 1.3 times the ANSI/ASME standard for proof torque
Tekton Deep Thin Wall Impact Flip Sockets are ideal for servicing wheels on cars, trucks, utility trailers, and more. The six-point design offers a snug fit and sure contact with the broad, flat sides of a lug nut, not just the corners, preserving its geometry and preventing round-off. The outer diameter is 1 to 2 mm smaller than other Tekton impact sockets, providing clearance to slide into recessed lug nut wells. Each socket meets a minimum of 1.3 times the ANSI/ASME standard for proof torque and is made from 4140 Chromium-Molybdenum steel with a corrosion resistant manganese phosphate coating.
