Proto, J5418M, Socket, 1/2 in Drive, 18 mm, 12-Point, Full Polish Chrome
Engineered for both durability and performance, this 12-point socket from Proto is an essential addition to any toolbox. Its innovative torqueplus design features a radius-corner configuration that effectively shifts the contact area away from the corners of fasteners, significantly reducing the risk of slippage and enhancing overall grip. Ideal for tackling stubborn, damaged, or rusted fasteners, this socket minimizes fastener rounding and prolongs their lifespan, making it a reliable choice for a variety of applications. The full polish chrome finish not only ensures a sleek appearance but also helps resist rust and wear, allowing for longevity in demanding environments. With a 1/2 inch drive and designed to engage with fastener flats, this socket is capable of efficiently handling jobs in both professional and home settings.
Features
- 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 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.
- Proto 12 point sockets are ideal for use on stubborn or damaged fasteners, and also on fasteners made from soft materials.
