Socket 1/2" 12-point 27mm long, NEO tools 08-083

Long 1/2" drive 12-point socket, 27 mm size, by NEO tools. This extended-length socket is designed for use with 1/2" ratchets and torque wrenches to engage 12-point fasteners and bolts. The longer body improves access to recessed or hard-to-reach nuts in automotive, mechanical and industrial maintenance applications while preserving a compact cross-section for use in tighter spaces.

Advantages

The 12-point internal profile allows quicker alignment with fastener corners and works with both hexagonal and some double-hex fasteners. Extended length gives improved reach without sacrificing tool control, and compatibility with 1/2" drive tools ensures robust torque transfer for tightening and loosening operations. The socket's hardened steel construction and precise machining provide wear resistance and consistent fit on fasteners.

Suitable for

• Automotive repair and wheel, brake or engine component work
• Mechanical assembly and maintenance in workshops
• Industrial equipment servicing where recessed fasteners are present
• Use with 1/2" drive ratchets, breakers and torque wrenches

Key specifications

• Drive size: 1/2" (square drive interface)
• Socket profile: 12-point internal configuration
• External size: 27 mm working aperture
• Form factor: long/extended length for improved reach
• Material and finish: hardened machined steel with protective coating

How to use

Attach the socket securely to a compatible 1/2" drive ratchet, breaker bar or torque wrench. Position the 12-point opening over the fastener and ensure full seating before applying torque. For removal or installation in confined or recessed areas, use the socket's length to reach the fastener while maintaining steady, controlled force. When precise torque values are required, use a calibrated torque wrench and follow the torque specifications for the specific fastener.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the socket and the fastener for damage before use; replace sockets that show rounding or cracking. Use impact-rated sockets only with impact tools and avoid excessive side-loading to extend service life. For best results, match the socket size precisely to the fastener and apply torque within the recommended range of your drive tool.
