1/2-in drive deep socket

A Wheeler-Rex 982 socket with a 1/2-in drive and 1-1/4-in SAE size fits large fasteners in automotive and industrial maintenance. The six-point alloy-steel body is zinc-plated for corrosion resistance. Extra-deep construction provides 5 in of bolt clearance for recessed hardware. Not impact rated, so it is intended for hand use only.

Hand-tool users needing deep reach

Technicians who must remove or tighten large bolts in deep recesses will find the extra length useful. The non-impact rating means it should not be used with powered drivers. Buyers who need an impact-rated socket or a smaller drive size should look at other options.

5-in bolt clearance

The 5-in bolt clearance is the single specification that determines whether this socket reaches the fastener in your application. Measure the recess depth before ordering to confirm fit.

Questions about this item

What drive size ratchet or breaker bar is needed for the 1/2 in drive socket?

Will the 1-1/4" SAE socket fit the same fasteners as my existing 1/2" drive socket set?

Yes, the 1-1/4" SAE 6-point socket works with any standard 1/2" drive tool you already own.

How can I verify the socket is correctly seated on a fastener before applying force?
