## Summary description

The Wera 8790 HMC socket is a high-quality 1/2" drive metric socket designed for durability and precision. With a diameter of 2.72 cm and a length of 83 mm, it is perfect for various applications. Made in Taiwan, this socket ensures reliable performance and longevity, making it an essential tool for professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike.

## Long description

The Wera 8790 HMC is a long 1/2" hand and machine socket (ISO 2725-3) with a ball intercept ring, designed for external hexagonal bolts and sockets. It is suitable for both manual and non-impact machine operation and works well with recessed screw heads and protruding threaded rods. The Take it easy tool finder provides colour coding by size for quick tool identification, and the surface is easy to grip even with oily hands. The hexagon profile transmits high torque while reducing edge stress on bolts and screw heads compared with a double hexagon profile, and the fine-toothed ratchet mechanism makes a double hexagon unnecessary even in tight spaces due to its small return angle.
Advantages
The socket combines compatibility with hand and machine use, a ball intercept ring for secure attachment, and the Take it easy colour coding for rapid selection. Its long design and fine-toothed ratchet compatibility allow access to recessed fasteners and work near protruding threads. The hexagon profile supports high torque transmission with lower wear on bolt edges, and the textured surface aids handling under oily conditions.
Suitable for
Removing and tightening external hex bolts in automotive and mechanical maintenance
Operations requiring access to recessed screw heads or around protruding threaded rods
Assembly and disassembly tasks using hand tools or non-impact machine drives

How to use
Select the correctly coloured socket using the Take it easy tool finder, place the socket onto the external hex bolt or nut, and secure it with the ball intercept ring on the 1/2" drive or ratchet. For hand operation, use a suitable handle; for machine work, use a non-impact drive. Apply steady torque and avoid impact tools. The long design allows reaching recessed fasteners and working around protruding threads—ensure the socket fully seats on the fastener before applying torque.
Usage recommendations
Use only with non-impact machine drives or hand tools. Match socket size accurately to the fastener, keep contact surfaces clean and free of significant damage, and avoid using excessive force beyond tool ratings to reduce fastener edge wear and extend socket life.
