Proto, J5408M, Socket, 1/2 in Drive; 8 mm Size, 12-Point, Full Polish Chrome
Crafted by Proto, this 8 mm, 12-point socket is designed to tackle even the most stubborn or damaged fasteners, making it an essential addition to any toolbox. Its innovative torqueplus design enhances socket engagement by concentrating force on the fastener's flats rather than the corners, effectively reducing the risk of rounding and extending the life of both the tool and the fastener. Built from durable metal and finished in full polish chrome, this socket not only offers a sleek appearance but also minimizes slippage thanks to the radius-corner design, which redistributes stresses across a larger contact area. Ideal for both DIY enthusiasts and professional mechanics alike, this socket is a reliable choice for any metric socket application.
Features
- Proto 12 point sockets are ideal for use on stubborn or damaged fasteners, and also on fasteners made from soft materials.
- 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 internal design minimizes fastener rounding, helps to extend fastener life, and allows the user to more easily turn worn, rounded, or rusted fasteners.
- 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.
