Socket set KS Tools 918.3050 31 heads Chromium-vanadium steel

The KS Tools 918.3050 31 heads socket set is a compact collection of sockets manufactured from chromium-vanadium steel. Designed for general mechanical work and routine maintenance, the set balances durability with low weight — the complete set weighs approximately 420 g. The sockets deliver corrosion resistance and strength typical of chromium-vanadium alloys and are intended for repeated use across household, automotive and light industrial tasks.

Advantages

This socket set combines a full range of commonly used sizes in a small, portable format that is easy to store and carry. The chromium-vanadium steel construction provides improved wear resistance and long service life compared with standard carbon steel. The low overall weight and compact footprint make the set convenient for mobile technicians and DIY users who need a reliable set of sockets without bulk.

Suitable for

• Automotive maintenance and light repairs
• Home and DIY assembly or disassembly tasks
• General mechanical servicing and equipment maintenance
• Workshop use where a compact socket selection is required

Key specifications

• Material: chromium-vanadium steel
• Number of heads: 31 socket heads
• Total set weight: approximately 420 g
• Finish: corrosion-resistant steel surface
• Design: compact, portable set for storage and transport

How to use

Select the socket that corresponds to the fastener size, attach it securely to a compatible ratchet or driver, and apply torque while maintaining proper alignment to avoid rounding the fastener edges. Use controlled force and the appropriate tool for the required torque; if additional leverage or higher torque is needed, choose a tool rated for that application. After use, clean debris from the sockets and store them in their designated case or organizer to keep sizes identifiable and prevent corrosion.

Recommendations

For safe and effective operation, inspect sockets visually before each use for cracks or deformation. Use hand tools with a drive size that matches the sockets, avoid impact tools unless sockets are explicitly rated for impact use, and apply lubricants to fasteners when appropriate to reduce the risk of damage. Store the set in a dry environment to preserve the chromium-vanadium finish.
