Socket Wera 8790 HMB HF Zyklop with 3/8" drive

The Wera 8790 HMB HF Zyklop socket with 3/8" drive is a compact metric socket designed for secure and convenient screwdriving. It includes a holding function that reduces the risk of losing the screw when positioning the fastener. Manufactured in the Czech Republic, the socket combines a short 29 mm length and a 1.75 cm diameter for use in confined spaces and general mechanical tasks.

Advantages

The holding function secures screws during insertion and makes one-handed operation easier. Colour coding by size ("Take it easy" Tool Finder) speeds up tool selection and reduces time spent searching for the correct socket. The 3/8" drive provides compatibility with standard ratchets and torque tools for a range of workshop and maintenance tasks.

Suitable for

• Automotive maintenance and repair

How to use

Drive the fastener to the required torque or depth while maintaining alignment; release the tool once the fastener is secured.

Usage recommendations

Use the Zyklop socket with appropriate torque settings for the fastener and application. Inspect the socket and holding function before use, and replace if wear compromises retention. Store sockets organised by the "Take it easy" colour coding to simplify future access.
