Proto, J4710DPL, Deep Spline Socket, 1/4 in Drive; 5/16 in Size; Full Polish Chrome

The Proto Deep Spline Socket is engineered for exceptional performance in demanding environments, featuring a 1/4 inch drive and a 5/16 inch size. Crafted from high-quality metal with a full polish chrome finish, this socket not only provides durability and easy cleaning but also reduces foreign object debris (FOD) through its precise fit with fasteners. Notably, the spline design enables the socket to deliver twice the torque of traditional 12-point wrenches on double box fasteners, making it ideal for high-strength bolts under significant loads, while its unique ability to grip fasteners with damaged corners enhances its utility in various applications, including military, automotive, and heavy machinery use. Whether you’re tackling automotive repairs or servicing industrial machinery, this socket is a crucial tool for achieving high-performance torque with reduced risk of fastener rounding.

Features

• Spline helps reduce foreign object debris (FOD) by having a precise fit between the fastening tool and its fastener.
• Spline sockets on spline fasteners help deliver twice the torque of 12 point wrenches on double box fasteners, and more torque than hex wrenches on hex fasteners.
• Spline sockets help tighten high strength bolts to high torque loads. They help lower the force required to turn standard fasteners by allowing the torque load to be moved away from the corners to help prevent fastener rounding. They also turn fasteners with damaged corners.
• Proto Spline tools are designed to service high tensile strength fasteners used widely on military and commercial aircraft and in heavy machinery applications where vibration is prevalent. They are also used in automotive and industrial areas where high performance torque needs to be achieved.
