The set includes three spline sizes: 10 Tooth x 16mm, 17 Tooth x 14.5mm, and 21 Tooth x 16.5mm.
The sockets feature a standard 1/2" square drive, compatible with most common ratchets and breaker bars.
This set is specifically designed for BMW spline wheel locks. They may not fit or be suitable for wheel locks from other manufacturers.
The sockets are manufactured from durable Chrome vanadium steel.
The set comes on a handy storage rail, which is ideal for keeping them organized and protected in a toolbox or workshop.
While the sockets are made of strong material, it is generally recommended to use them with hand tools like a ratchet or breaker bar for better control and to prevent damage to the wheel locks or the socket, especially for initial loosening.
Verify that you are using the correct spline size (10T, 17T, or 21T) for your BMW model's wheel lock. Consult your vehicle's manual or a BMW specialist if unsure.
Apply a penetrating lubricant to the wheel lock and allow it to soak. Use a breaker bar for increased leverage. Ensure the socket is fully seated and applying even pressure. If the lock nut is severely damaged, professional assistance may be required.
Ensure you are using the correct size socket and that it is fully engaged. Avoid excessive force that could strip the spline. If damage is occurring, stop immediately and seek professional help.
Setup: No setup is required. The sockets are ready to use immediately. Attach the appropriate spline socket to your 1/2" drive ratchet or breaker bar.
Compatibility: This set is designed specifically for BMW wheel locks with the spline drive type. It is compatible with any standard 1/2" drive tool. Ensure you select the correct spline size for your specific wheel lock.
Care: To maintain longevity, clean the sockets after each use with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh solvents. Store the sockets on the provided rail in a dry environment to prevent rust and corrosion.
