Socket YATO YT-1316, 3/4" drive, metric socket, 60 mm length, 4.2 cm diameter

YATO YT-1316 is a metric 3/4" drive socket engineered for tightening and loosening metric fasteners in automotive, industrial and heavy-duty mechanical tasks. With a length of 60 mm and an outer diameter of 42 mm, this socket offers a balance between reach and strength, designed to fit standard 3/4" drive ratchets and torque tools. The socket's dimensions and construction provide stable engagement with fasteners while allowing access in moderately recessed applications.

Advantages

The socket's 3/4" drive interface ensures compatibility with a wide range of ratchets and torque wrenches used in professional environments. Its 60 mm length gives extended reach compared with standard short sockets without becoming cumbersome for confined spaces. A 42 mm outer diameter provides a robust wall thickness that supports high torque transmission and reduces deformation risk under load. The tool is suitable for repeated use in repair and maintenance workflows where metric fasteners are common.

Suitable for

• Automotive repair and wheel/tire fastener work
• Industrial equipment maintenance and assembly
• Heavy machinery service and field repairs
• Workshops using 3/4" drive ratchets and torque tools

Key specifications

• Drive size: 3/4"
• Metric socket design
• Overall length: 60 mm
• Outer diameter: 42 mm
• Intended for use with ratchets and torque wrenches compatible with 3/4" drive

How to use

Select a ratchet or torque wrench with a 3/4" square drive and attach the socket securely to the tool. Position the socket squarely on the fastener head to ensure full contact with the corners or flats, then apply torque in the required direction to tighten or loosen. For high torque requirements, use a torque wrench set to the manufacturer's recommended value; for confined locations, the 60 mm length provides additional reach while remaining manageable. After use, clean debris from the socket and store it in a tool organizer to prevent damage and corrosion.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment and follow torque specifications for fasteners. Avoid using the socket on damaged fasteners or with impact tools unless the socket is explicitly rated for impact use; doing so may shorten tool life or cause failure. Regular inspection for wear and deformation will help maintain safe and reliable performance.
