The KS Tools 918.3005 33-head socket set contains 33 sockets manufactured from chromium-vanadium steel, designed for repeated use in maintenance, repair and assembly tasks. Weighing approximately 405 g, the set is compact and lightweight, offering a balance between durability and portability for workshop, garage or home applications. The set is supplied as a collection of individual heads compatible with standard ratchets and extensions.

Advantages

The chromium-vanadium steel construction provides good resistance to wear and deformation under torque. A compact total weight of about 405 g makes the set easy to carry and manoeuvre in confined spaces. The variety of 33 socket sizes increases versatility, reducing the need to switch between multiple separate tools. The heads are finished to facilitate quick identification and installation on compatible drivers.

Suitable for

• Automotive maintenance and light repairs
• Household DIY and assembly tasks
• General mechanical maintenance in workshops
• Professional technicians needing a compact socket assortment

Key specifications

• Material: Chromium-vanadium steel
• Number of heads: 33
• Approximate weight: 405 g
• Compatibility: Standard socket drivers and ratchets (drive size must match socket)
• Finish: Protective machine finish to reduce corrosion and wear

How to use

Select the socket head that matches the fastener size, attach it securely to a compatible ratchet or driver, and apply controlled torque. Ensure the drive size of the ratchet or extension matches the socket, and position the socket correctly on the fastener before applying force. For best results, use steady, even pressure and avoid sudden impacts unless the socket and driver are specifically rated for impact use.

Usage recommendations

Store the sockets in a dry place to minimise corrosion and keep them organised to speed selection. Inspect heads periodically for rounding or wear and replace damaged sockets to prevent fastener damage. Use appropriate torque settings to avoid overloading the sockets and the fasteners.
