Socket wrench L‑type 17 mm NEO tools 09-212

NEO tools L‑type 17 mm socket wrench 09-212 combines a fixed tubular 17 mm socket with an L‑shaped handle to provide manual torque for tightening and loosening nuts and bolts. The tool is designed for situations that require leverage and access in confined spaces; its compact, rigid L‑shaped construction allows direct hand operation without additional adaptors. Constructed for typical workshop, automotive and household repair tasks, the socket wrench is intended as a straightforward, durable hand tool for repetitive fastening work.

Advantages

The L‑type design gives immediate leverage and a long moment arm for controlled torque application, while the tubular 17 mm socket ensures a secure fit on hexagonal fasteners. Its one‑piece construction reduces play between handle and socket, improving torque transfer and stability. The compact profile allows use in tighter areas where longer ratchets or power tools cannot reach. The simple mechanical design requires no maintenance beyond occasional cleaning and inspection.

Suitable for

• Automotive maintenance and repairs (wheel nuts, suspension fasteners, engine brackets)
• Mechanical assembly and disassembly of machinery with 17 mm hex fasteners
• Household repairs and furniture assembly involving 17 mm bolts
• Tight or confined spaces where a compact lever is needed

Key specifications

• Socket size: 17 mm
• Tool type: L‑type tubular socket wrench
• Operation: manual hand tool for turning hexagonal fasteners
• Construction: one‑piece L‑shaped handle with integrated tubular socket
• Typical applications: automotive, mechanical, household repairs

How to use

Select the L‑type 17 mm socket wrench and position the tubular socket fully over the nut or bolt head. Apply steady force to the handle in the required direction to tighten or loosen the fastener; use the longer arm for increased leverage and the shorter arm for limited clearance. Maintain a straight alignment between socket and fastener to avoid rounding the fastener edges. After use, wipe the tool clean and inspect the socket opening for wear.

Usage recommendations

Use the L‑type socket wrench for hand‑applied torque only; avoid applying impact or excessive force that exceeds hand operation to prevent tool or fastener damage. For high torque requirements, use a torque wrench or appropriate powered tool and follow fastener manufacturer torque specifications. Store the wrench in a dry place to minimise corrosion and periodically inspect for deformation or wear.
