The Gedore 19 23 6131770 is a professional-grade 23 mm socket designed for mechanics and automotive technicians who require precision and durability for heavy-duty fastening tasks. Featuring a 1/2-inch drive and a specialized UD profile that grips the flats of fasteners rather than the corners, it ensures high torque transmission while minimizing the risk of fastener deformation. Please note that this is a hand-operated tool and is not intended for high-impact power tool use despite its robust build quality.

No, this is a hand-operated socket (DIN 3124). Using it with impact tools may result in damage to the tool or injury.
The UD (Universal Drive) profile is a design that grips the fastener on its flat sides rather than on the corners, which helps prevent rounding off and allows for higher torque.
No, this socket is designed for a 1/2-inch square drive. You would need an adapter to fit it to a 3/8-inch drive.
It is manufactured from 31CrV3 Gedore vanadium steel, known for its high strength and resilience.
No, this socket does not have magnetic properties; it relies on the mechanical fit and the drive handle to stay in place.
Verify that the ratchet's ball detent is fully functional. If the spring is weak, the ball may not extend far enough to engage the socket's groove.
Ensure the socket is pushed fully onto the fastener. If the bolt head is rounded or damaged, clean the debris and verify that the socket is the correct 23 mm metric size.
Setup: To use this socket, align the 1/2-inch square drive with your ratchet or torque wrench. Ensure the ball retention mechanism clicks securely into the groove on the socket to prevent it from dropping into an engine bay or workspace.
Compatibility: This tool is compatible with all standard 1/2-inch square drive handles, extensions, and universal joints meeting DIN 3120 standards. It is a 23 mm metric size socket.
Care: To keep your Gedore socket in peak condition, wipe it clean with a dry, lint-free cloth after every use to remove oils and chemicals. While the chrome plating is corrosion-resistant, storing the tool in a moisture-free environment or a designated tool box will prevent long-term surface oxidation.
