Socket set Silver 16 pcs spline sockets 12-point 1/2" drive silver finish

Set of 16 spline sockets by Silver designed for use with a 1/2" drive ratchet or breaker bar. These 12-point spline sockets offer multiple contact points around the fastener head, improving grip on rounded, damaged or non-standard profiles while allowing efficient torque transfer. The silver finish provides corrosion resistance and a professional appearance suitable for workshop and field use. The set covers a range of spline socket sizes for automotive, industrial maintenance and general mechanical repair tasks requiring reliable engagement and durability.

Advantages

The spline design distributes force across more contact surfaces than conventional hex sockets, reducing the likelihood of further damaging worn fasteners. A 12-point internal profile enables easier positioning in confined spaces and faster re-engagement during repetitive work. The 1/2" drive compatibility ensures compatibility with common ratchets, torque wrenches and breaker bars, while the durable silver finish resists rust and simplifies cleaning after use.

Suitable for

• Automotive repair and wheel/axle fastener removal
• Industrial maintenance and machinery servicing
• General mechanical repairs where damaged or rounded fasteners are encountered
• Workshops and service vans requiring a compact, multipurpose socket set

Key specifications

• Socket type: 12-point spline sockets
• Drive size: 1/2" (square drive)
• Set size: 16 pieces covering multiple spline socket dimensions
• Finish: silver (corrosion-resistant coating)
• Material: chrome vanadium steel or comparable hardened tool steel (heat-treated)

How to use

Select the spline socket that fits the fastener head snugly and attach it to a compatible 1/2" drive ratchet, breaker bar or torque wrench. Seat the socket fully onto the fastener before applying torque to avoid slipping. For seized or heavily rounded fasteners, apply steady, controlled force and consider using penetrating lubricant beforehand. When using a torque-sensitive application, verify the socket and drive are rated for the required torque and follow the wrench manufacturer's torque settings.

Usage recommendations

Inspect sockets periodically for wear or cracking and replace any damaged pieces to maintain safe operation. Store the set in a dry place and clean off dirt and grease after use. Avoid using impact tools with sockets not rated for impact use; when required, use sockets specifically designed for impact drivers.
