Socket Allen hex 1/2" Proxxon H10 x 55 mm PR23480

Proxxon Socket Allen hex 1/2" H10 x 55 mm is a single-piece hexagon socket designed for use with 1/2" drive ratchets and power tools. The H10 size provides a precise fit on hex-head fasteners commonly found in automotive, mechanical maintenance and assembly applications. With a 55 mm usable length, the socket reaches recessed bolts while maintaining drive engagement and alignment.

Advantages

The socket is manufactured to provide accurate hex engagement and consistent torque transfer to fasteners. Its 1/2" drive interface ensures compatibility with widely used hand and powered drive tools; the 55 mm length improves access to deeper fasteners without compromising control. The tool's geometry minimizes rounding of bolt heads and supports repeatable, reliable fastening operations in professional and home workshop environments.

Suitable for

• Automotive repair and maintenance, including engine and suspension fasteners
• Mechanical assembly and disassembly tasks in workshops
• Maintenance of agricultural and light industrial equipment
• Situations requiring access to recessed or partially obstructed hex bolts

Key specifications

• Drive size: 1/2" compatible drive interface for standard ratchets and power tools
• Hex size: H10 for use with H10 hex-head fasteners
• Length: 55 mm usable length to reach recessed bolts
• Construction: single-piece socket designed for torque transmission and secure fit
• Application: suitable for hand and powered drive tools

How to use

Select a compatible 1/2" drive ratchet or power tool and attach the H10 socket by pushing it onto the tool's drive square until it seats. Position the socket over the hex-head fastener ensuring full engagement with the six contact faces. Apply torque smoothly—if using a power tool, use controlled speed and torque settings appropriate to the fastener and material to avoid over-tightening or damage. After use, remove the socket by pulling it off the drive and store it in a socket organizer to protect the hex faces.

Usage recommendations

Use the socket with the correct H10 fastener size and a properly rated 1/2" drive tool. Inspect the socket and fastener for wear or damage before applying high torque. For precision torque requirements, use a calibrated torque wrench rather than powered tools.
