Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these sockets suitable for use with an impact gun?

No, this set is manufactured for manual use with hand tools only. Impact tools may damage the bits.

What drive sizes are included in the set?

The set includes 1/4 inch, 3/8 inch, and 1/2 inch drive sockets.

What material are the bits made from?

The bits are crafted from high-grade, hardened S2 steel.

Does this set include a case?

It includes a sturdy socket rail designed for organized storage and quick access.

Can I use these on standard hex bolts?

No, these are specifically designed for spline fasteners and will not provide a secure fit on standard hex bolts.

Troubleshooting

Socket slips inside the bolt head

Verify that you are using the correct size; spline fasteners can look similar but vary by only fractions of a millimeter.

Socket is stuck on the ratchet square drive

Ensure the detent ball on your ratchet is functioning properly; use a light lubricant on the square drive to assist with removal.

Corrosion on the socket surface

Use a fine-grit abrasive cloth to gently remove light surface rust and apply a thin layer of machine oil for protection.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your BlueSpot Spline Bit Socket Set, always select the correctly sized bit for the fastener to prevent stripping. The set is fully compatible with standard hand-operated ratchets, torque wrenches, and breaker bars of the corresponding drive size. To maintain the set, wipe the sockets clean with a dry or slightly oiled cloth after use to prevent surface oxidation. Store the sockets on the provided rail in a dry environment to avoid moisture buildup. Do not use these bits with impact drivers or electric impact wrenches, as the high-impulse force can cause the hardened S2 steel to fracture.
