Socket set for candles Honiton H-022 — 16 mm and 21 mm sockets

Honiton H-022 is a compact socket set intended for spark plug and ignition-candle maintenance. The set contains two deep sockets sized 16 mm and 21 mm that fit common spark plug hexagons and allow safe gripping during removal and installation. Designed for garage use, routine servicing and field repairs, this socket set is compatible with hand ratchets and extensions that accept standard 1/2" or 3/8" drive adaptors depending on the user’s tool configuration.

Advantages

The Honiton H-022 set provides accurately sized sockets for secure engagement with spark plug hexagons, reducing the risk of rounding. Its deep socket design accommodates the extended body of many spark plugs and candle fittings, while the compact two-socket assortment keeps the toolkit minimal and easy to store. The sockets are suitable for repeated workshop and mobile repairs and enable controlled torque application when used with torque-limited tools.

Suitable for

• Spark plug removal and installation on cars and motorcycles
• Maintenance of small engines, lawn mowers and generators
• Routine garage servicing and diagnostic work
• Field repairs where compact, dedicated sockets are required

Key specifications

How to use

Select the socket matching the spark plug hexagon (16 mm or 21 mm), fit it onto the ratchet or appropriate extension, and engage the socket square with the plug hexagon. Turn counterclockwise to loosen and remove the spark plug; reverse to install. Use steady, controlled force and avoid excessive impact to prevent damage to the plug or engine threads. When reinstalling, start by hand to ensure correct thread engagement before applying final torque with a torque wrench or controlled ratchet.

Usage recommendations

For best results, clean the spark plug seating area before removal, use the correct socket size to avoid rounding, and apply manufacturer-recommended torque when reinstalling spark plugs. Store the sockets in a dry place to maintain chrome finish and prevent corrosion.
