TEKTON 78-Piece 1/2 Inch Drive Socket Set for Professionals

TEKTON’s 12-point sockets provide a precise fit for double hex fasteners while also accommodating hex and square shapes. These sockets are engineered to grip the sides of the fastener heads rather than the corners, effectively minimizing the risk of rounding off fasteners during use. The extended length of these deep sockets allows for easy access over long fasteners and can reach into recessed areas that are often difficult to fit into.

The socket set includes a comprehensive 16-piece collection of standard 12-point inch sockets with sizes ranging from 3/8 inch to 1-5/16 inch. It also features another 16-piece set of deep 12-point inch sockets that covers the same size range. Additionally, the set consists of 23-piece bottom layers of standard 12-point metric sockets from 10 mm to 32 mm, along with a matching 23-piece collection of deep metric sockets within the same measurement range. This thorough assortment ensures you have the appropriate socket for various tasks.

The design includes socket rails and trays for streamlined organization. The 12-point openings fit double hex (12-sided) configurations, as well as traditional hex and square-shaped fasteners, making this set versatile for multiple types of work. The specialized geometry of these sockets directs force onto the flat sides of fasteners, rather than their corners, which not only protects the fasteners but also improves performance.

One of the standout features of the TEKTON sockets is the extra-large die-stamped size markings. These markings are integrated into the material and are optimized for readability, making it easy to select the right size even in low-light conditions. The polished finish, being chrome-plated, not only enhances the appearance but also makes cleaning incredibly easy. This finish additionally offers high resistance to corrosion, ensuring the longevity of the tools.

For secure use, the sockets feature four detent grooves that ensure a solid connection with drive tools. Also, the bevelled inner rim of the socket opening aids in guiding the socket smoothly onto fasteners, facilitating quick engagement.

To further enhance organization, the set includes a Twist-to-Lock Socket Rail which keeps the sockets securely in place—ideal for storage in a toolbox and convenient when transporting tools for on-the-go tasks.

In summary, TEKTON’s 12-point socket offerings feature meticulously designed tools that enhance your ability to manage fasteners effectively, reduce wear on the hardware, and provide the user with a reliable, professional experience. Whether performing routine maintenance or tackling complex repairs, this socket set ensures you’re equipped with the right tools for the job. Its durable construction, variety of sizes, and user-friendly features make it a valuable asset for both DIY enthusiasts and professional mechanics alike.
