Socket Bit Torx 1/2" Topex T55 x 60 mm (model 38D808)

Topex Socket Bit Torx 1/2" T55 x 60 mm is a single-piece insert designed for use with 1/2" square-drive ratchets and torque tools. The bit features a Torx T55 tip and a 60 mm overall length, providing additional reach compared with standard-length bits. It is intended for fastening and loosening Torx-head fasteners in automotive maintenance, mechanical work, and assembly operations that require a longer working reach or access into recessed fasteners.

Advantages

The Topex Torx socket bit offers a hardened Torx tip for reliable engagement with T55 fasteners and precise torque transfer. Its 1/2" drive shank ensures compatibility with common ratchets and torque wrenches, while the 60 mm length improves access to deep or recessed screws without needing extensions. The single-bit construction reduces play at the drive interface and simplifies tool selection when a longer Torx reach is required.

Suitable for

• Automotive repair and maintenance where Torx fasteners are used
• Mechanical assembly and disassembly of machinery with T55 fittings
• Workshop and industrial tasks requiring extended reach into recessed fasteners

Key specifications

• Drive type: 1/2" square drive compatible
• Tip profile: Torx T55
• Overall length: 60 mm
• Construction: single-piece socket bit

How to use

Select a compatible 1/2" drive ratchet, breaker bar, or torque wrench and insert the socket bit into the tool's square drive until it seats securely. Engage the Torx T55 tip with the fastener head, ensuring correct alignment to avoid cam-out. Apply turning force steadily; if working with a torque wrench, set the required torque value before operation. After use, wipe the bit clean and store it in a protective holder to prevent corrosion and damage.

Usage recommendations

Use the Topex T55 x 60 mm bit with tools rated for the intended torque and avoid excessive side-loading. For precision tightening, use a calibrated torque wrench and check fastener manufacturer torque specifications. Store in a dry place and inspect the tip for wear before critical applications.
