How to use

Select the correct socket size (16, 18 or 21 mm) for the fastener and fit it onto a compatible square drive or engage manually using the knurled grip and a tommy bar through the Ø 8 mm hole if additional leverage is required. Ensure the socket is seated fully on the fastener before applying torque. For impact applications, use appropriate impact-rated tools and accessories; for manual use, operate with steady, controlled force to avoid slipping.

Recommendations

Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use. Clean and lightly lubricate contact surfaces after use and store in a dry environment to prevent corrosion. Use the socket only within its intended mechanical limits and with compatible tools to maintain safety and service life.
