Socket wrench Proline 1/2" 6-point 17 mm model 9017753

Socket wrench Proline 1/2" 6-point 17 mm (model 9017753) is a professional 1/2" drive 6-point socket designed for fastening and loosening hex fasteners in automotive, mechanical and maintenance tasks. Manufactured from chrome-vanadium steel and subjected to precise hardening and tempering, it provides the hardness and durability required for repeated use. The socket meets and exceeds DIN 3124 and PN-ISO 1711 strength requirements and features specially profiled edges between the contact faces — the PRO-DRIVE system — to reduce point loading and protect against excessive wear of bolt heads and flats.

Advantages

The Proline 1/2" 6-point 17 mm socket offers an accurate fit to reduce rounding of bolts, reliable torque transfer for efficient work, and enhanced resistance to wear due to chrome-vanadium construction and heat treatment. The PRO-DRIVE profile minimises damaging point contact on fastener corners, improving grip and extending fastener life. The socket is compatible with standard 1/2" drive ratchets and extensions.
