This socket is specifically designed for 33mm HGV wheel nuts.
It requires a 3/4" drive impact wrench or breaker bar.
Yes, while designed for damaged nuts, it can be used on standard 33mm nuts, utilizing its 3/4" drive capability. However, it may be more aggressive than a standard socket.
It is manufactured from heat-treated Chromium Molybdenum steel with a black phosphate finish.
The internal design features spiral flutes that bite into the damaged or rounded edges of the wheel nut, providing a strong grip for removal.
The 36mm external hex allows the socket to be driven by a spanner or impact wrench from the outside, which can be useful for initial loosening or if the internal drive is not preferred.
Yes, Laser Tools offers Part No. 9256 for 32mm HGV wheel nuts.
Ensure the socket is the correct 33mm size and is fully seated. If the nut is severely rounded, try applying more downward force. Clean any debris from the nut's surface. Consider using a penetrating oil.
Verify you are using a sufficient torque output from your 3/4" drive impact wrench. Ensure the socket's internal flutes are biting into the nut. For extremely seized nuts, a breaker bar with a long handle may be required, or consider heat application (with caution).
Inspect the socket for signs of excessive wear or cracking. If damage is noted, discontinue use to prevent further damage to the wheel nut or stud. Contact the retailer for a replacement if within warranty.
Setup: This socket requires a 3/4" drive impact wrench or breaker bar. Ensure the socket is fully seated onto the damaged wheel nut before applying power or torque. For best results, clean the wheel stud threads and apply a penetrating lubricant prior to use.
Compatibility: Primarily designed for 33mm HGV truck and trailer wheel nuts. Compatible with all 3/4" drive impact wrenches and breaker bars. Note: A separate socket (Laser Part No. 9256) is available for 32mm HGV wheel nuts.
Care: After use, clean the socket of any dirt, grease, or debris. Store in a dry environment to prevent corrosion. The black phosphate finish offers good protection, but prolonged exposure to moisture can still lead to rust. Periodically inspect for wear or damage.
