Socket, GEKO G14130, 12-point 30 mm, 3/4" drive

The GEKO G14130 is a 12-point socket with a 30 mm internal diameter, made to work with hand and power tools that accept a 3/4" square drive. Its 12-point shape allows multiple indexing positions on fasteners, enabling engagement with hexagonal nuts and bolts in confined spaces and reducing the need for repositioning. The socket is suitable for tasks that require higher torque and reliable contact on fastener faces.

Advantages

The 12-point configuration provides more contact positions than a 6-point design, improving access in tight locations and speeding up repositioning. The 30 mm size is commonly used on medium to large fasteners found in automotive, industrial and heavy equipment applications. The 3/4" drive interface ensures compatibility with a wide range of torque wrenches, breaker bars and impact tools designed for that drive size. The socket's geometry distributes load across multiple faces to reduce rounding of fastener corners when used correctly.

Suitable for

• Automotive repair and maintenance involving medium to large nuts and bolts
• Industrial machinery assembly and service
• Heavy equipment and agricultural machinery maintenance
• Workshop use with 3/4" drive torque or impact tools

Key specifications

• Socket internal size: 30 mm
• Point configuration: 12-point (double hex)
• Drive type: 3/4" square drive
• Intended use: fastening and loosening nuts and bolts
• Compatibility: hand tools and power tools designed for 3/4" drives

How to use

Select the socket to match the fastener size and ensure the workpiece is stable before applying torque. Fit the socket onto a compatible 3/4" drive tool such as a torque wrench, breaker bar, or impact wrench. Engage the socket fully onto the fastener head to ensure all contact faces align and apply torque gradually, maintaining a straight line with the tool to avoid slipping. After use, inspect the socket for wear or damage and store it clean and dry.

Usage recommendations

Use the GEKO 30 mm 12-point socket with tools and fasteners rated for the required torque. For stubborn or rusted fasteners, consider using penetrating lubricant and incremental torque increases rather than sudden high force. Avoid using damaged sockets or fasteners to prevent rounding and maintain safe operation.
