Socket set KS Tools 917.0216

The KS Tools 917.0216 socket set contains 216 imperial socket heads in a single organized kit, designed to provide a comprehensive range of sizes for repair, maintenance and assembly tasks. With a total weight of 11.6 kg, the set is built for durability and repeated use in workshop and mobile service environments. The components are arranged for quick identification and efficient workflow, making the set suitable for both professional mechanics and serious DIY users who require imperial-sized sockets.

Advantages

The kit offers broad size coverage across imperial measurements, reducing the need to source individual sockets for uncommon sizes. Robust construction and a solid carrying case improve longevity and transportability. The organized layout helps speed up work by keeping sockets accessible and preventing loss. The set’s weight reflects the substantial number of pieces and the heavy-duty materials used, contributing to stability during use and resistance to wear.

Suitable for

• Automotive repair involving imperial fasteners
• Maintenance of imported machinery and equipment with imperial threads
• Field service and mobile workshops
• Home and garage projects requiring an extensive imperial socket selection

Key specifications

• Number of pieces: 216 imperial socket heads
• Measurement system: Imperial (inch) sizes
• Total set weight: 11.6 kg
• Storage: Portable, molded case with organized compartments
• Material characteristics: Hardened steel sockets and corrosion-resistant finish (typical for professional socket sets)

How to use

Select the correct imperial socket size for the fastener to ensure a secure fit and reduce the risk of rounding. Fit the socket onto the appropriate drive tool (ratchet, breaker bar, or torque wrench) and attach the drive square into the socket recess. Apply controlled force according to the fastener and material specifications; use a torque wrench when required to achieve prescribed torque values. Store sockets in their molded positions after use to maintain organization and simplify future selection.

Recommendations

Inspect sockets before use for signs of damage or wear, and avoid using sockets on fasteners that are excessively corroded or rounded. When working with high torque or impact tools, use sockets rated for those applications. Clean and lightly lubricate contact surfaces occasionally and keep the case dry to extend service life.
