Socket 70 mm 1" 6-point Rockforce RF-58570

Rockforce RF-58570 is a 70 mm, 1" drive, 6-point socket designed for use with compatible 1" torque tools and drive handles. The socket's 6-point hexagonal profile provides full-face engagement with fasteners to reduce rounding and improve torque transfer. Manufactured for heavy-duty maintenance, vehicle service, and industrial environments, this large-diameter socket accommodates high-torque applications and oversized fasteners that require a robust, secure connection.

Advantages

The 6-point geometry distributes load across flat faces of the fastener head, reducing the risk of corner rounding compared with 12-point designs. A 1" drive size ensures compatibility with standard heavy-duty torque wrenches and impact tools used in professional workshops. The 70 mm diameter suits large nuts and bolts commonly found on commercial vehicles, agricultural machinery, and industrial assemblies, offering reliable contact and improved torque control.

Suitable for

• Heavy vehicle wheel nut removal and installation
• Industrial machinery maintenance and assembly
• Agricultural and construction equipment servicing
• High-torque bolting tasks in workshops and garages

Key specifications

• Drive size: 1" compatible with 1-inch torque tools and drive handles
• Socket opening: 70 mm across flats
• Point configuration: 6-point (hexagonal) profile for full-face contact
• Intended use: heavy-duty, high-torque applications
• Typical materials: chrome-vanadium or equivalent alloy steel for strength and wear resistance

How to use

Select a compatible 1" drive torque wrench, breaker bar, or impact wrench and ensure the drive tool is rated for the required torque. Fit the 70 mm socket onto the fastener so the 6-point faces fully seat against the flats of the nut or bolt head. Apply torque gradually and keep the socket axis aligned with the fastener to avoid uneven loading. After use, inspect the socket for wear or deformation and store it in a dry, protected environment to prevent corrosion.

Usage recommendations

Use this socket with tools and torque values appropriate for the application; avoid exceeding tool and socket ratings. For repeated high-torque impact use, select sockets specifically rated for impact service. Clean and lightly lubricate contact surfaces periodically and replace the socket if signs of cracking, rounding, or excessive wear appear.
