27mm 6-Point Low-Profile Socket

This 27mm 6-point socket is built for removing oil filter caps on Mercedes-Benz A-Class, Ford, Renault, Nissan, Dodge, Hyundai, Kia, Mini, Fiat, Volkswagen and Smart Car models. It fits any application that uses a 27mm hex cap. The low-profile design reaches caps in tight engine bays where standard sockets cannot. It is intended for DIY owners and professional technicians performing routine oil changes.

Chrome Vanadium Steel With Matte Chrome Finish

The socket is forged from chrome vanadium steel and finished in matte chrome to resist rust and corrosion. The fixed 3/8" square drive transfers torque without flex. Under sustained load during stubborn cap removal the material resists cracking and the finish protects the surface. The low-profile height keeps the drive close to the cap for better leverage in confined spaces.

Replaces Standard Deep Or Tall Oil Filter Sockets

This tool replaces a standard deep socket when clearance above the oil filter cap is limited. The upgrade is worth it whenever a regular socket cannot seat fully or hits surrounding components. It does not suit buyers who need a different hex size, a 1/2" drive or an adjustable strap wrench for oversized or damaged caps.

Questions about this item

How much heat does the 27mm socket generate when used continuously?

The tool is passive chrome vanadium steel with a matte chrome finish; it produces no heat of its own and only warms slightly from contact with hot engine parts.

What drive tool is required to turn this 27mm 6-point socket?

A 3/8" drive ratchet, breaker bar or torque wrench with a standard square drive is needed to engage the fixed square on the socket.

Will the 27mm 6-point profile fit the oil filter caps on older Mercedes-Benz A-Class and Ford models?

Yes, the socket is designed for 27mm 6-point caps found on those vehicles as well as on Renault, Nissan, Dodge, Hyundai, Kia, Mini, Fiat, Volkswagen and Smart models.
