Hex Bit Socket 1/2" Jonnesway H5 x 55 mm (S09H405) - 6‑point Allen Drive

Jonnesway hex bit socket 1/2" H5 x 55 mm is a 6-point Allen-style socket designed for 1/2" drive ratchets and torque tools. The H5 (5 mm) hex bit fits internal hex bolts and screws while the 55 mm overall length provides additional reach for recessed or hard-to-access fasteners. The socket’s 6-point profile ensures positive engagement with hex heads to reduce rounding and improve torque transfer during tightening and loosening operations.

Advantages

The socket combines a standard 1/2" drive interface with a precision-machined H5 hex bit to deliver reliable fit and controlled torque application. Its 6-point geometry offers better contact with fasteners compared to splined or 12-point designs in many service situations. The 55 mm length increases accessibility without sacrificing drive stability, making the tool suitable for use with ratchets, torque wrenches and extension bars where a longer reach is required.

Suitable for

• Automotive repair and maintenance where internal hex fasteners are recessed
• Mechanical assembly and disassembly of machinery with 5 mm hex bolts
• Workshop servicing tasks requiring reliable torque transfer and reach
• Maintenance work on equipment with confined or deep-set hex sockets

Key specifications

• Drive size: 1/2" (square drive for ratchets and torque tools)
• Bit type: 6-point internal hex (Allen) 5 mm
• Overall length: 55 mm for extended reach
• Point configuration: 6-point for secure engagement with hex fasteners

How to use

Select the socket and attach it securely to a compatible 1/2" drive ratchet, breaker bar or torque wrench. Insert the H5 hex bit fully into the internal hex fastener to ensure full face contact before applying torque. Use steady, controlled force when tightening or loosening to avoid cam-out or rounding of the fastener. When using a torque wrench, set the required torque value and apply force evenly until the wrench indicates the set torque.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the socket and fastener for damage before use, and avoid excessive impact on 6-point hex bits with impact tools unless the socket is specified for impact duty. For torque-critical applications, use a calibrated torque wrench and confirm proper engagement of the hex bit with the fastener to ensure accurate torque delivery.
