Long ¼" hand and machine socket (ISO 2725-Part 3) with ball catch groove; for external hex screws and nuts. Suitable for use in hand and machine operations (non-impact), even for deep-seated fasteners and protruding threaded rods. Equipped with the Take it easy tool finder featuring color coding by size - for easy and quick identification of the required tool. Textured for easy gripping, even with oily hands. With hexagonal profile. The hexagonal profile allows for the transfer of high forces and places less stress on the edges of the nut or screw head compared to a twelve-point profile. Additionally, fine-toothed ratchets make the use of a twelve-point profile unnecessary even in tight spaces due to their small return angle.
