Long 1/2" 17mm socket wrench HOGERT HT1A267 — 17 mm, 1/2-inch drive, long reach

Long 1/2" 17mm socket wrench HOGERT HT1A267 is a single-size 17 mm socket with a 1/2-inch drive and an extended body designed to reach recessed or hard-to-access fasteners. The socket is compatible with standard 1/2" ratchets, extensions and breakers and is intended for tasks where additional length improves access and leverage, such as automotive repairs, mechanical assembly and general maintenance work.

Advantages

The extended length provides improved reach into deep or narrow spaces without requiring additional adapters. A 1/2-inch drive ensures compatibility with common mid-to-heavy duty hand tools, allowing secure attachment to ratchets and torque tools. The single-size 17 mm opening offers precise fit to metric fasteners, reducing the risk of rounding. The solid construction delivers reliable torque transfer for tightening and loosening bolts and nuts.

Suitable for

• Automotive engine and suspension work where bolts sit recessed
• Mechanical assembly and disassembly requiring extended reach
• Maintenance and repair in machinery with restricted access
• Use with 1/2" ratchets, extensions and breaker bars

Key specifications

• Socket size: 17 mm
• Drive size: 1/2 inch
• Type: long reach single socket
• Compatibility: standard 1/2" ratchets, extensions and breaker bars
• Material and finish: durable metal construction suitable for hand tool use

How to use

Select a 1/2" drive ratchet or extension compatible with the socket. Push the socket onto the drive until it locks, then place the socket over the fastener and turn the ratchet or breaker bar in the required direction to loosen or tighten. For deep or recessed fasteners, use the socket's extended length to reach without removing nearby components. After use, detach the socket by pressing the drive's release (if present) or by pulling the socket off the drive and store it in an appropriate tool organizer.

Usage recommendations

Use the socket with tools rated for the required torque and avoid applying impact tools unless the socket is specifically marked for impact use. Inspect the socket for wear or damage before use and replace if deformation or excessive wear is present. Store in a dry place to prevent corrosion and maintain fit accuracy.
