17 mm 1/2 in drive deep socket

The Wheeler-Rex 947 is a 17 mm deep socket with a 1/2 inch drive and six-point geometry. It is made from alloy steel with a zinc-plated finish for corrosion resistance. The deep profile provides 5 inches of bolt clearance for reaching recessed fasteners. This hand tool is rated for manual use only.

Manual-use metric socket for deep bolts

Mechanics and DIYers needing a 17 mm metric socket for deep-set bolts on hand-driven jobs will find this suitable. It is not for anyone requiring an impact-rated socket for powered drivers. Buyers needing a different drive size or a shallow socket should look elsewhere.

Questions about this item

How can I confirm the 947 deep socket is engaging the 17 mm fastener correctly after setup?

The 6-point profile should seat fully on the fastener without rounding the corners; a snug fit and smooth rotation under load show it is working as intended.

What comes with the 947 socket and is a 1/2 in drive ratchet included?

The box contains only the 17 mm deep socket; a 1/2 in drive ratchet or breaker bar must be purchased separately.
