FAQs

What is the WallDrive® design?

The WallDrive® design transfers torque to the flats of the fastener rather than the corners, providing better grip and reducing the chance of rounding off nuts or bolts.

What materials are the sockets made of?

The sockets are manufactured from Chrome Vanadium steel for strength and durability.

What sizes are included in the set?

The set includes metric sizes from 10mm to 32mm.

Are these sockets suitable for use with an impact wrench?

Yes, these sockets are designed for use with impact wrenches (hand, battery, or air powered).

How should I store the sockets?

Store the sockets in the provided blow-moulded carry case in a dry place to prevent damage and corrosion.

Can I use these sockets with a breaker bar?

Yes, these sockets can be used with a breaker bar, but they are optimized for use with impact wrenches.

What is the purpose of the phosphate coating?

The phosphate coating provides corrosion resistance, helping to protect the sockets from rust and environmental damage.

What should I do if a socket becomes damaged?

Replace any damaged sockets immediately to avoid injury and ensure proper performance.

Troubleshooting

Socket won't fit onto the impact wrench.

Ensure the socket and the impact wrench have the correct drive size (1/2" square drive) and that the socket is properly seated.

Socket is slipping or rounding off the fastener.

Make sure you are using the correct size socket. The WallDrive® design helps, but ensure the socket is fully engaged and use appropriate torque settings.

Sockets are rusting.

Clean and dry the sockets after each use. Apply a light coat of oil or a rust inhibitor for storage. Store in the provided case in a dry environment.
