1/2" Drive 5/8" SAE Socket

This Westward socket fits a 1/2 inch square drive and a 5/8 inch SAE fastener. The six-point hex opening grips the flat sides of the bolt or nut. Alloy steel construction provides strength for general fastening tasks. It meets the ASME B107.110-2012 dimensional standard.

Check drive size and fastener system

Verify that your ratchet or breaker bar has a 1/2 inch female square drive. Confirm the fastener you are turning is a 5/8 inch SAE hex head. The socket depth is standard, so ensure the bolt shank is not too long to seat fully. This tool requires a separate drive tool to operate.

Full polish finish and tether-ready

The full polished finish resists corrosion and wipes clean easily. A standard accessory is needed if you want to tether the socket for drop prevention. No additional accessories or software are included with the socket itself. California Proposition 65 warnings apply to this product.

Questions about this item

Does the socket come alone or in a set with other sizes?

The listing covers the single 5/8" SAE socket; additional sizes or a rail are sold separately.

What does the 6-point hex shape do for a 5/8" fastener?

Six contact faces grip the flats of a 5/8" bolt or nut, reducing the chance of rounding compared with 12-point designs.

How does the ASME B107.110-2012 rating affect everyday use?

It confirms the alloy-steel socket meets recognised dimensional and hardness tolerances for professional hand-tool work.
