Facom FM-76.16 16 mm 6 12 Point Socket

SKU CH-3ZWK-FN41B

A 16 mm metric socket with both 6 and 12 point profiles for versatile fastener engagement

  • 16 mm dual-profile socket fits more fasteners
  • 12-point and 6-point heads grip rounded and standard nuts
  • 7 1/64 in length reaches recessed bolts
  • Alloy steel body resists wear under high torque
  • Satin finish reduces glare and corrosion

16 mm Metric Socket, 6 & 12 Point

The Facom FM-76.16 is a new metric socket designed for 16 mm fasteners. It features a dual-profile head that accepts both 6-point and 12-point configurations. The L-shaped wrench form provides two drive ends in a single alloy-steel tool with a satin finish.

Mechanics needing one tool for two drive profiles

Technicians who want a single socket covering both 6-point and 12-point engagement will find this practical. Users who require a dedicated single-profile socket or a different drive size should look at other options.

Dual 6-point and 12-point head

The defining specification is the combined 6-point and 12-point socket head on a 16 mm metric size. This dual-profile design determines whether the tool matches the fastener access and grip requirements of the job.

Questions about this item

Will the 12-point and 6-point socket profiles need re-profiling after heavy use?

The alloy-steel heads hold their 12-point and 6-point geometry under normal torque; no re-profiling is expected during the tool's service life.

What stops the 16 mm socket from rounding off fasteners during sustained high-torque jobs?

The dual 12-point and 6-point contact faces distribute load across more flats, reducing the chance of rounding before the alloy steel yields.

Does the satin-finish alloy steel get too hot to handle during all-day bolting?

The metal conducts heat quickly but stays near ambient temperature in typical hand-tightening cycles; gloves are only needed for extreme loads.
