Socket wrench bit 1/2" 24 mm long, Honiton H1524

Long 1/2" socket, 24 mm, Honiton H1524 is a deep socket designed for use with 1/2-inch drive ratchets, torque wrenches and handles. Its extended length provides access to recessed or hard-to-reach hex fasteners while maintaining the standard 24 mm hex engagement. The socket is intended for tasks in automotive repair, machinery maintenance and general workshop use where additional reach and standard sizing are required.

Advantages

The extended length improves reach to nuts and bolts located in recessed areas without requiring additional adapters. Compatibility with 1/2-inch drive tools ensures straightforward interchangeability with common ratchets and torque wrenches. The 24 mm hex profile provides a secure fit on standard fasteners, reducing the risk of rounding. The socket's construction offers durability suited to regular workshop and maintenance use.

Suitable for

• Automotive repairs — wheel, suspension and engine fasteners
• Maintenance of industrial machinery and equipment
• Workshop and garage general fastening and loosening tasks
• Servicing components located in recessed or confined spaces

Key specifications

• Drive size: 1/2 inch
• Socket type: deep/long socket
• Hex size: 24 mm
• Intended use: manual ratchets, torque wrenches and handles
• Application areas: automotive, machinery, maintenance

How to use

Attach the socket to a compatible 1/2-inch drive ratchet, torque wrench or handle until it seats securely. Position the socket over the 24 mm hex fastener, ensuring full engagement to minimize slipping. Apply turning force with steady, controlled motion; when using a torque wrench, set the required torque according to the fastener manufacturer’s specification. After use, remove the socket and store it in a suitable socket rail or case to prevent damage.

Usage recommendations

Use the socket with appropriately rated tools and follow torque specifications for critical fasteners. Inspect the socket for wear or damage before use, and avoid applying impact forces unless the socket is explicitly rated for impact use.
