Proto, J5475A, Universal Joint Socket, 1/2 in Drive; 12-Point, Standard, Full Polish Chrome

This universal joint socket from Proto exemplifies high performance and durability with its innovative TorquePlus design, which facilitates swift and effortless socket engagement by connecting to the fastener flats rather than the corners. Engineered specifically for tackling stubborn or damaged fasteners, this 12-point socket is particularly effective on those made from softer materials, allowing for versatile applications in various mechanical tasks. Its unique radius-corner design not only minimizes slippage but also effectively redistributes stress, reducing the risk of damaging fastener corners and prolonging their life, even when working with worn or rusted components. With a full polish chrome finish, it combines both functionality and aesthetic appeal, making it a valuable addition to any tool collection.

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.
• Proto 12 Point Sockets are ideal for use on stubborn or damaged fasteners, and also on fasteners made from soft materials.
• 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.
