Socket Makita E-22224 3/4" drive SW17 17.0 mm × 51.0 mm

Makita E-22224 is a 3/4" drive socket with a 17.0 mm (SW17) opening and 51.0 mm length. Designed for use with compatible 3/4" drive ratchets, torque wrenches and impact tools, this socket delivers a precise fit for hex fasteners of 17 mm size. Constructed to meet demands of automotive, industrial and heavy-duty maintenance, the socket balances reach and access for bolts recessed in housings or assemblies.

Advantages

The socket provides accurate engagement with 17 mm hex fasteners, reducing rounding and wear on bolt heads. Its 3/4" drive interface ensures compatibility with high-torque tools and professional hand tools. The 51.0 mm length offers additional reach compared with standard shallow sockets while remaining compact enough for tighter spaces. Machined internal geometry and durable material contribute to consistent performance under repeated use.

Suitable for

• Automotive repair and wheel fastening where 17 mm hex bolts are used
• Industrial maintenance and assembly of machinery with medium to large fasteners
• Heavy-duty service tasks requiring 3/4" drive tools and higher torque capacity
• Workshops needing a reliable 17 mm socket for torque wrenches and ratchets

Key specifications

• Drive size: 3/4" (square drive)
• Opening: 17.0 mm (hex / SW17)
• Overall length: 51.0 mm
• Socket type: 6-point hex engagement
• Intended use: manual and powered torque tools (ratchets, torque wrenches, impact tools)

How to use

Select the socket and attach it firmly to a compatible 3/4" drive ratchet, breaker bar, torque wrench or impact tool. Align the socket squarely with the 17 mm hex fastener and apply torque steadily; for tightening, follow the torque specification for the fastener and tool used. For removal, apply controlled force and avoid sudden impacts when using manual tools. When used with impact tools, ensure the socket is rated for impact use and check for secure seating before operation.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the socket for wear or deformation before each use and replace if any cracking or rounding is visible. Use hand tools or torque-limited tools to achieve specified fastener torque; when using impact tools, verify compatibility with impact-rated sockets and wear appropriate protective equipment. Store the socket in a dry, organized tool chest to prevent corrosion and damage.
