Socket wrench Proline 1/2" 6-point 18mm model 9017760

Proline 1/2" 6-point socket wrench, 18 mm (model 9017760). The socket is made from chrome-vanadium steel and undergoes precise hardening and tempering to ensure required hardness and durability. The tool meets and exceeds DIN 3124 and PN-ISO 1711 strength requirements and is intended for use with 1/2-inch drives to deliver a secure fit on hex fasteners.

Advantages

The 6-point design provides a strong grip on fastener heads to reduce rounding and slipping. Precision-heat-treated chrome-vanadium construction increases wear resistance and service life. Edges between the working faces are specially profiled with the PRO-DRIVE system to distribute load and minimize concentrated stress on fastener corners, helping to protect fastener heads and flat surfaces from excessive damage.

Suitable for

• Automotive repair and maintenance
• Mechanical and industrial assembly tasks
• Workshop and professional maintenance where medium to high torque is needed

How to use

Fit the 18 mm 6-point socket onto a compatible 1/2" drive ratchet, breaker bar, or extension. Place the socket squarely over the hex fastener and apply torque gradually, ensuring the PRO-DRIVE profiled edges seat on the flats of the fastener to reduce slipping. Avoid applying impact force with tools not rated for impact use, unless the socket is explicitly marked for impact service.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate safety equipment and select the correct socket size before starting work. Inspect the socket and fastener for wear or damage and replace if deformed. Store the socket in a dry place to prevent corrosion and follow manufacturer torque limits for fasteners when specified.
