Socket 3/4" 22 mm, STANLEY model 1-89-322, 6-point drive

STANLEY 6-point socket with a 3/4" drive and 22 mm opening (model 1-89-322) is designed for fastening and loosening hex fasteners with a 22 mm head. The six-point contact geometry provides a secure grip on bolt heads and nuts, helping to reduce rounding under high torque. Constructed for workshop and automotive use, the socket is suitable for use with 3/4" ratchets, breaker bars and torque wrenches where robust performance and reliability are required.

Advantages

The 6-point design concentrates force on the flats of fasteners rather than the corners, improving torque transfer and decreasing the risk of damage. A 3/4" drive provides compatibility with heavy-duty hand tools and high-torque applications. The compact length allows access to fasteners in confined or recessed spaces while maintaining strength for repeated use in professional environments.

Suitable for

• Automotive repair and maintenance involving 22 mm fasteners
• Industrial and workshop applications requiring high torque
• Heavy equipment servicing and construction machinery
• Use with 3/4" ratchets, breaker bars and torque tools

Key specifications

• Drive size: 3/4" compatible
• Socket opening: 22 mm hex
• Point count: 6-point geometry for hex fasteners
• Intended use: heavy-duty fastening and loosening tasks
• Form factor: compact length for access in tight spaces

How to use

Select a 3/4" drive ratchet, breaker bar or torque wrench compatible with high torque. Fit the socket onto the 22 mm hex fastener so that the six points fully engage the flats. Apply steady torque through the hand tool, avoiding sudden impacts unless the socket and tool are rated for impact use. When using torque wrenches, follow the specified torque settings for the fastener to ensure correct clamping force.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the socket and drive tool before use for wear or damage. Use the socket with appropriately rated tools for the required torque. Store in a dry place and clean after use to prevent corrosion and ensure long service life.
