This 30-inch breaker bar and 17mm deep impact socket set is designed for mechanics, DIY enthusiasts, and trade professionals who require significant leverage to loosen seized or over-tightened fasteners. The combination provides exceptional mechanical advantage, though its substantial length may make it difficult to maneuver in tight engine bays or cramped workspaces.

No. The breaker bar is designed for manual use only. Only the 17mm impact socket is rated for use with power tools.
It is a 6-point (single hex) socket, which provides better grip and reduces the risk of rounding the bolt head.
Keep the tool clean and free of moisture. A light coating of tool oil can be applied periodically to preserve the finish.
The breaker bar is a fixed assembly. If the mechanism fails, it is recommended to replace the unit rather than attempting a repair.
Yes, 30 inches is a standard professional length that provides a balance between extreme leverage and portability.
Check the spring-loaded ball on the drive head to ensure it is not stuck with debris; clean with a rag and apply a light lubricant.
Hold the head firmly with one hand while positioning the socket over the bolt with the other to maintain alignment.
To ensure the longevity of your tools, maintain them by wiping the bar and socket with a clean cloth after each use to remove grease and debris. Store the items in a dry environment to prevent moisture buildup, despite the phosphate coating.
Compatibility:
Safety Note: While the socket is impact-rated, the breaker bar itself is a manual tool. Do not use the breaker bar with an electric or pneumatic impact wrench, as this can damage the swivel head mechanism.
