Socket bit hex 1/2" Proxxon H6 x 100 mm long (PR23475)

Proxxon 1/2" hex socket bit H6 x 100 mm long is a single-piece hex bit designed for use with 1/2" drive ratchets and extension bars. The bit provides a 6 mm internal hex profile and an extended 100 mm length to access recessed or hard-to-reach fasteners. Manufactured to suit mechanical, automotive and assembly applications, the bit offers a standard hex fit for compatible sockets and fasteners.

Advantages

The long 100 mm length allows access to fasteners located deep inside housings or behind obstacles while maintaining engagement with a 6 mm hex head. Compatibility with common 1/2" drive tools and extension bars reduces the need for additional adapters. The solid construction ensures consistent torque transfer and stable fit during use.

Suitable for

• Reaching recessed hex fasteners in mechanical and automotive repairs
• Assembly and disassembly of equipment where depth is required
• Use with 1/2" drive ratchets and extension bars for workshop and industrial tasks

Key specifications

• Drive interface: 1/2" drive compatible
• Hex profile size: 6 mm internal (H6)
• Overall bit length: 100 mm
• Type: long hex socket bit
• Material and finish: hardened tool steel (manufacturer standard)

How to use

Fit the hex socket bit into a compatible 1/2" drive ratchet or extension bar before engaging the fastener. Insert the hex end fully into the fastener head to ensure correct engagement, then apply controlled torque using the ratchet or a torque wrench as appropriate. When working in confined spaces, use the extended length to reach the fastener while keeping the drive tool at a comfortable angle. After use, clean the bit of debris and store it in a protective holder to prevent damage.

Usage recommendations

Use the bit only with devices and extension bars designed for 1/2" drive. Avoid excessive impact or prying that can deform the hex profile. For critical torque applications, use a calibrated torque wrench and ensure the bit is properly seated to prevent rounding of fastener heads.
