Apex 80661 Hex Bit Socket 1/2 in Drive 12 Mm

Product Description

The APEX 80661 is a 12 MM hex bit socket designed for use with 1/2 inch drive tools. Built on a heat-treated alloy steel base socket, it delivers reliable durability through repeated use in demanding trade and industrial environments. The bit itself is manufactured from S2 steel, a high-strength tool steel commonly specified for impact and drive bits. At 2.48 inches in length and 0.28 pounds, this standard-length socket is sized for accessible fastener locations. It is suited for mechanics, maintenance technicians, and any trade professional working with internal hex fasteners.

This bit socket is used to drive or loosen internal hex fasteners across a wide range of applications including mechanical assembly, equipment maintenance, HVAC equipment fastening, and general trade work. The 1/2 inch drive interface is standard across professional-grade ratchets, breaker bars, and torque wrenches, making this socket a versatile addition to any service kit. The standard length profile fits most accessible fastener locations without requiring an extension.
