What is the overall length of the rail?

Troubleshooting
Socket feels loose on the clip
Ensure the socket is fully seated against the spring mechanism. If the issue persists, check if the socket drive hole is deformed or dirty.
Clip is difficult to slide
Check for debris trapped between the clip and the rail track. Use a light machine oil to lubricate the track if movement is restricted.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- High-tension spring clips prevent socket loss
- Compact 260mm size fits most tool boxes
- Durable plated finish for long-term corrosion resistance

- Fixed capacity of 9 sockets may not fit larger sets

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your rail, simply snap your existing 1/2-inch drive sockets onto the spring-loaded clips. The clips are designed to accommodate standard socket drive ends. To maintain the life of the rail, wipe it down periodically with a clean cloth to remove oil, grease, or metallic debris. While the plated finish is rust-resistant, keeping the rail in a dry environment will ensure the springs maintain their tension for years of reliable use.
