## Long description

The Wera 8790 HMC is a 1/2" drive hand and machine socket (ISO 2725-3) with a ball intercept ring, designed for external hexagonal bolts and nuts. Made for both manual and non-impact machine use, this metric socket features a compact design suitable for low-lying screwdriving and working around protruding threaded rods. It includes Wera's Take it easy tool finder with colour coding by size to simplify and speed up the selection of the correct socket.
Advantages
This socket offers a secure fit on hexagonal fasteners and a hexagon profile that transmits high torque while reducing stress on bolt edges compared with double-hex profiles. The ball intercept ring secures the socket on the fastener or on the drive accessory. Fine-toothed ratchet compatibility and a small return angle make the tool effective in confined spaces. The Take it easy colour coding and an easy-to-grasp surface help when working with oily hands.
Suitable for
Manual tightening and loosening of metric hex bolts and nuts
Use with non-impact power tools and drive accessories
Work in confined spaces or on low-lying fasteners
Applications where secure socket retention on threaded rods is required
