## Summary description

Yato YT-1462 is a 1/2" drive metric socket with a 22 mm diameter and 38 mm length. Designed for use with 1/2" drive ratchets and extensions, it fits metric fasteners and is suitable for automotive, machinery maintenance and general workshop use where mid-length access and standard metric sizing are required.

## Long description

The Yato YT-1462 1/2" drive metric socket Ø22 mm length 38 mm is a mid-length, hexagonal socket designed for use with 1/2" drive ratchets and extensions. It accepts 22 mm metric fasteners and provides a balance of reach and torque transfer for maintenance tasks where standard metric sizing and moderate clearance are required. The socket is intended for workshop and automotive applications as well as general machinery service jobs that need reliable engagement with hex fasteners.
Advantages
This 22 mm socket offers a mid-length profile that improves access to recessed bolts without sacrificing strength. The 1/2" drive interface ensures compatibility with common ratchets and breaker bars, while the precise 22 mm bore provides secure engagement with metric fasteners to reduce rounding. The socket’s length and construction are suitable for applying higher torque compared with shorter sockets, and its standardized drive size simplifies tool set integration.
Suitable for
Automotive repair and maintenance (engine, suspension, drivetrain components)
Machinery and equipment servicing in workshops and industrial settings
Assembly and disassembly of metric fastened components in general maintenance
Key specifications
Drive size: 1/2" (square drive interface for ratchets and extensions)
Socket diameter: 22 mm (hexagonal bore for metric fasteners)
Length: 38 mm (mid-length for increased reach over standard short sockets)
Profile: 6-point hex engagement for secure fit on bolts and nuts
How to use
Attach the socket to a compatible 1/2" drive ratchet, torque wrench, or extension. Position the hex bore fully over the 22 mm fastener and apply steady torque, ensuring the socket sits squarely on the fastener to minimize slippage. Use extensions or universal joints for awkward angles or recessed fasteners, keeping in mind the mid-length of the socket when planning reach and leverage. Inspect the socket before use for signs of wear or damage and replace if any deformation is present.
Usage recommendations
Use the socket with tools rated for the required torque and avoid excessive impact or prying forces that exceed the manufacturer's intended use. For high-torque removal, employ a longer breaker bar or appropriate impact-rated socket and follow safe working practices, including eye protection and stable positioning of workpieces.
