The Facom R.7LA 7mm deep hexagon socket is designed for professional mechanics and industrial technicians who require high-torque precision and reliable performance in tight workspaces. This 1/4-inch drive tool features a robust 6-point design that minimizes the risk of fastener rounding, making it an essential addition to any high-end automotive toolkit; however, users should note that the deep profile requires sufficient clearance depth when working on recessed bolts.

No, this socket is designed for manual hand tools. Impacting it can cause the tool to crack or the chrome to flake, and it is not rated for the extreme shock loads of impact drivers.
This is a metric socket designed specifically for 7mm hardware.
The 6-point design makes contact with the flat sides of the bolt head, providing more surface area contact and significantly reducing the risk of rounding off fasteners.
Facom tools are generally covered by a professional lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects. Please refer to your local distributor for specific claim procedures.
While it fits 1/4-inch drive systems, keep in mind that the 'deep' profile means it is longer than standard shallow sockets. Ensure you have at least the length of the socket plus your ratchet head clearance available.
Verify that the fastener is exactly 7mm and not slightly larger due to rust buildup or paint; clean the bolt head before applying force.
Check if the ratchet drive ball is depressed or worn; use a different 1/4-inch drive accessory to confirm if the issue is the socket or the ratchet.
This socket is compatible with all standard 1/4-inch drive ratchets, flex handles, and torque wrenches. To ensure a long service life, avoid using the socket with high-impact power tools, as the chrome finish and internal structure are optimized for hand-tool torque. After use in oily or corrosive conditions, wipe the socket with a clean rag to remove debris. Periodically inspect the interior hexagon for signs of wear or metal shavings. Store in a dry, organized tool chest to prevent moisture accumulation.
