FORCE F131-5497708 1/2" Drive 12-Point Socket - 8 mm

FORCE F131-5497708 Socket 1/2" 12PT No. 8
Standard socket FORCE F131-5497708, size 1/2 inch, 12-point, No. 8 mm. A high-quality hand socket built to Taiwan industrial standards from the FORCE brand, made from premium-grade Chrome Vanadium Steel (Cr-V). Efficiently heat-treated for hardening and finished with an attractive satin chrome plating to resist rust and corrosion from oil stains. The socket features a precisely crafted 8 mm 12-point opening that engages fasteners quickly and easily in tight spaces thanks to a finer engagement angle than 6-point sockets (engages every 30 degrees), enhancing workflow efficiency. It fits securely onto ratchet handles, sliding T-handles, extension bars, or torque wrenches with a 1/2-inch (4-hun) drive, making it ideal for automotive repair, machinery maintenance, and general mechanical work.
