1-1/8 in SAE 6-point socket

This Ampco nonsparking socket fits a 1/2 in drive and measures 1-1/8 in SAE. It is made from aluminum bronze with an unfinished surface and meets FM Approved and ASTM A342 standards. The tool is designed for hand use only and is not impact rated. Buyers needing an impact-rated socket or a different drive size should look elsewhere.

Straightforward hand installation

The socket slides onto any standard 1/2 in drive ratchet or breaker bar without adapters. Because it is not impact rated, using it with a powered impact wrench can damage the aluminum bronze body. The unfinished finish may show surface marks after first use, which is normal for this material.

Verify drive size and application

Confirm that your ratchet or breaker bar has a 1/2 in square drive before ordering. Check that the job requires a 1-1/8 in SAE 6-point opening and that hand torque is sufficient. The socket is FM Approved and conforms to ASTM A342, so ensure those certifications satisfy your safety requirements.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the socket is working correctly after setup?

Confirm the 6-point opening fully engages the fastener without rounding and that the 1/2 inch drive seats securely in your ratchet or breaker bar.

What comes in the box and what must I buy separately?

The package contains the single 1-1/8 inch SAE socket; a 1/2 inch drive ratchet, breaker bar or extension must be purchased separately.

Which version or capacity should I choose for my application?

Select this socket when you need a nonsparking, aluminum bronze, 6-point, 1-1/8 inch SAE size on a 1/2 inch drive that meets FM Approved and ASTM A342 standards.
