Hub Nut Deep Impact Socket - 41mm - 12 Point - 1/2 Inch Drive

This socket is primarily designed for removing and installing larger fasteners such as vehicle hub nuts, which are common on many automotive applications.

While it will physically fit a 1/2-inch drive ratchet, this socket is impact-rated and designed for high torque applications. Using it with a standard ratchet for extremely tight fasteners is not recommended and could lead to tool or fastener damage.

A 12-point socket has twelve sets of internal contact points, meaning it can be engaged with a fastener every 30 degrees. This offers more positions for engaging the fastener compared to a 6-point socket, which engages every 60 degrees.

No, the 41mm size is too large for standard automotive lug nuts, which typically require 17mm, 19mm, or 21mm sockets.

The socket is constructed from durable Chrome Molybdenum steel, known for its strength and resistance to impact.

The drive size is 1/2 inch, making it compatible with standard 1/2-inch drive impact wrenches, breaker bars, and torque wrenches.

Verify you are using the correct 41mm socket. Ensure the fastener is clean and free of debris. Check for wear on both the socket and the fastener; if either is excessively worn, replacement may be necessary.

Confirm the fastener size is indeed 41mm. Ensure the socket's 12-point opening is correctly aligned with the fastener's corners. The fastener may be damaged or non-standard.

This indicates the socket has reached its stress limit or has been misused. Discontinue use immediately to prevent tool failure and potential injury. Replace the socket.
