Socket 1/2" 6-point 19 mm Facom S.19H

Facom S.19H is a 6-point 19 mm socket with a 1/2" drive designed for use with compatible 1/2" ratchets and torque tools. The socket fits hex fasteners and is intended for mechanical, automotive and general maintenance tasks where accurate torque transfer and reduced fastener rounding are important. Its 6-point geometry concentrates contact on flat faces of the fastener to improve grip under load.

Advantages

The 6-point design reduces the risk of rounding bolts and nuts compared with 12-point sockets, delivering reliable torque transfer in tightening and loosening operations. A 1/2" drive provides compatibility with a wide range of ratchets, extensions and torque wrenches commonly used in workshops. The 19 mm size covers a frequent metric fastener dimension found in automotive and industrial applications.

Suitable for

• Automotive repair and maintenance
• Mechanical assembly and disassembly
• Workshop and industrial maintenance
• Use with 1/2" ratchets, extensions and torque wrenches

Key specifications

• Drive size: 1/2" (half-inch)
• Socket configuration: 6-point (hex)
• Socket size: 19 mm
• Intended fastening type: hex bolts and nuts
• Typical applications: automotive, mechanical, maintenance

How to use

Select the socket and attach it securely to a compatible 1/2" drive ratchet, breaker bar or torque wrench. Ensure the socket fully seats on the fastener flats before applying force to avoid slippage. For torque-sensitive operations, use a calibrated torque tool and apply the specified torque gradually. When loosening seized fasteners, apply steady controlled force and consider using penetrating lubricant or heat where appropriate and safe.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the socket for damage or wear before use and replace it if cracks, deformation or excessive rounding of the internal profile are present. Use appropriate personal protective equipment and follow tool manufacturer torque limits to avoid tool or fastener damage. Store the socket in a dry, organized toolbox or socket rail to maintain condition and accessibility.
