Socket set KS Tools 911.3427 3/4 inch Drive Metric 55mm 220g

The KS Tools 911.3427 3/4" Drive Metric 55mm 220g socket is a single metric deep socket designed for use with 3/4" drive ratchets and torque tools. With a 55 mm length and a compact 220 g weight, this socket provides reach into recessed fasteners while remaining manageable for handheld use. The product is intended for mechanically fastening and loosening bolts and nuts in professional and hobbyist environments where a metric size is required.

Advantages

The construction emphasizes durability and wear resistance appropriate for workshop use. The 3/4" drive interface ensures compatibility with standard heavy-duty drives and accessories. Its 55 mm depth allows access to deeper fasteners without requiring extension bars for many common situations. The socket's weight and dimensions provide a balance between strength and maneuverability.

How to use

Select the correct metric socket size for the fastener to ensure full seating on the head. Attach the socket securely to a 3/4" drive ratchet, breaker bar, or torque wrench. Place the socket over the fastener and apply steady turning force, taking care to maintain axial alignment to avoid rounding the fastener head. For torque-critical applications, use a calibrated torque wrench and follow the specified torque values for the fastener. Inspect the socket periodically for wear or damage and replace if deformation or excessive wear is evident.

Recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment and the correct drive and socket size to reduce the risk of slippage and fastener damage. Avoid using impact tools with sockets that are not rated for impact applications; consult tool specifications before use.
