Proto, J4712TM, Socket, 12 mm; 1/4 in Drive, 12-Point, Full Polish Chrome

Crafted by Proto, this 12 mm socket features a 1/4 inch drive and incorporates the innovative TorquePlus design for enhanced performance. By allowing quick and easy engagement with fasteners at the flats rather than corners, this design minimizes slippage and reduces wear on both the tool and fasteners, extending their lifespan. The radius-corner configuration shifts the contact area to effectively distribute stress away from fasteners, making it particularly useful for stubborn, damaged, or rusted fasteners, especially those made from softer materials. With a full polish chrome finish, this socket not only provides aesthetic appeal but also offers corrosion resistance, ensuring it remains a reliable tool for any mechanic or DIY enthusiast.

Features

• The TorquePlus design is a high performance drive configuration which allows for quick and easy socket engagement to the fastener flats, not the corners.
• The TorquePlus configuration employs a radius-corner design, shifting contact area and stress away from the fastener corners and distributing contact stresses over a large area of the socket, minimizing slippage.
• The TorquePlus internal design minimizes fastener rounding, helps to extend fastener life, and allows the user to more easily turn worn, rounded, or rusted fasteners.
• Proto 12 Point Sockets are ideal for use on stubborn or damaged fasteners, and also on fasteners made from soft materials.
