Socket 46 mm 1" 12-point Rockforce F-58946

Rockforce 46 mm 1" 12-point socket F-58946 is a heavy-duty tool designed for use with 1-inch drive ratchets, torque wrenches and impact accessories where a large-diameter socket is required. The 12-point (double-hex) geometry allows multiple engagement positions on compatible fasteners, improving alignment in confined spaces and enabling efficient torque transfer for nuts and bolts used in mechanical, automotive and industrial assemblies.

Advantages

The 12-point design provides more entry angles compared with hex sockets, reducing the need for repositioning on the fastener. Constructed from heat-treated steel with a precision-machined bore, the socket offers consistent fit and wear resistance under repeated use. Its 46 mm size addresses applications requiring large contact surfaces and higher torque, while the one-inch drive interface ensures compatibility with heavy-duty hand and power drive tools.

Suitable for

• Removing and tightening large wheel nuts and heavy machinery fasteners
• Engine assembly and maintenance where large-diameter nuts are present
• Industrial maintenance, construction equipment servicing and agricultural machinery repair
• Workshop use with 1" drive torque wrenches and impact guns

Key specifications

• Socket size: 46 mm
• Drive size: 1 inch
• Point configuration: 12-point (double-hex)
• Material: heat-treated alloy steel (precision machined)
• Finish: corrosion-resistant surface treatment
• Fit: designed for standard 12-point fasteners

How to use

Select a compatible 1" drive tool and confirm the socket seats fully on the fastener before applying torque. For hand tools, apply steady force and avoid sudden impacts; when using impact tools, ensure the socket is rated for impact use and the tool's anvil and detent ball engage the drive square securely. Inspect the socket and fastener for wear or damage before each use to maintain correct engagement and to prevent slippage.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate safety equipment and the correct torque settings for the application. Do not use a damaged socket or one that shows excessive rounding. When working with high torque, verify the tool and socket are compatible and consider using a torque wrench for final tightening to avoid over-torquing.
