Socket King Tony 327506M, 63 mm length, 8 mm width, single socket

King Tony 327506M single socket is a compact 8 mm socket with a 63 mm overall length, designed for precise fastening and loosening of bolts and nuts. Made from chrome vanadium steel and finished with a chrome-plated surface, this socket conforms to DIN 3120 dimensions to ensure compatibility with standard ratchets and drive tools. Its slender profile and defined drive end make it suitable for confined spaces and routine mechanical or automotive maintenance where a specific 8 mm size is required.

Advantages

The chrome vanadium steel construction provides tensile strength and wear resistance while the chrome plating offers corrosion protection and easier cleaning. The DIN 3120 conformity ensures consistent fit with compatible 1/4" drive accessories and reduces play during torque application. Its 63 mm length balances accessibility in recessed fasteners with control during turning operations.

Suitable for

• Automotive repairs requiring an 8 mm socket in tight or recessed areas
• Mechanical assembly and disassembly of small machinery
• General maintenance and household repairs involving 8 mm fasteners
• Workshops using standard drive ratchets and extensions compatible with DIN 3120

Key specifications

• Socket size: 8 mm (wrenching width)
• Overall length: 63 mm
• Material: chrome vanadium steel
• Finish: chrome plated for corrosion resistance
• Standards: manufactured to DIN 3120 dimensional specification
• Drive compatibility: standard square drive for use with matching ratchets and handles

How to use

Select a compatible ratchet or handle with the corresponding square drive, attach the King Tony 8 mm socket securely to the drive, and engage it fully onto the fastener head. Apply steady torque while maintaining axial alignment to avoid rounding the fastener. For removal, turn the ratchet in the counter direction, and for tightening follow the required torque specifications for the fastener and application. After use, wipe the socket clean and store it in a dry tool organizer to maintain the chrome plating.

Usage recommendations

Inspect sockets periodically for wear or distortion before use. Avoid using the socket with impact tools unless it is specifically rated for impact duty. Use appropriate torque values for the fasteners to prevent damage to both the tool and hardware, and store the socket in a protected case to prolong service life.
