Socket 1/2" 27 mm long 6-point NEO tools 08-049

Long 6-point socket by NEO tools with a 1/2" drive and a 27 mm nominal size. The extended length is intended to reach recessed hexagonal nuts and bolts while remaining compatible with standard 1/2" ratchets, extensions and torque tools. The 6-point profile fits hex fasteners securely to reduce rounding and slip during tightening and loosening in automotive, maintenance and assembly tasks.

Advantages

The long 6-point shape provides improved access to deep-set fasteners without the need for additional adapters. A precise 6-point internal profile distributes torque across flat surfaces of the fastener, which reduces the risk of damage compared with multi-point designs. The socket is designed to work with common 1/2" drive accessories, enabling straightforward integration into existing toolsets for workshop or field use.

Suitable for

• Automotive repair and servicing where deep or recessed nuts are encountered
• Industrial maintenance and machinery assembly
• General mechanical and workshop tasks requiring 27 mm fastener engagement

Key specifications

• Drive size: 1/2" compatible
• Nominal socket size: 27 mm
• Point configuration: 6-point (hex)
• Extended/long socket length for access to recessed fasteners
• Compatibility: fits standard 1/2" ratchets, extensions and torque tools

How to use

Select a suitable 1/2" drive ratchet or torque wrench, attach the socket securely to the drive square, and position the socket onto the hexagonal fastener. Apply steady turning force, ensuring the socket fully engages the flats of the fastener to minimize slip. When using a torque tool, observe the required torque values and proceed with controlled motions. Remove the socket by pulling it straight from the fastener once the operation is complete.

Usage recommendations

For best results, inspect both the socket and the fastener for wear or damage before use. Use appropriate personal protective equipment and select the correct torque settings when reassembling safety-critical components. Avoid applying impact forces with sockets not rated for impact tools.
