Apex 80672 1/2 in Drive E22 External Torx Socket

Product Description

The APEX 80672 is a 1/2 inch drive external Torx socket in size E22, finished in black oxide for corrosion resistance. Designed for use with manual drive tools only, this socket fits external Torx fasteners found across a wide range of mechanical and structural applications. The black oxide coating provides a durable surface that holds up in shop and field environments. At 0.36 pounds and 2 inches in length, it is a compact, purpose-built hand tool socket suited for professional tradespeople working on equipment assemblies, automotive components, and industrial fasteners.

The 80672 is used wherever E22 external Torx fasteners appear, including HVAC equipment panels, electrical enclosures, and mechanical assemblies. It is appropriate for both light commercial and residential service work. The 1/2 inch drive size pairs with standard ratchets, breaker bars, and torque wrenches in the same drive class. Suitable for licensed HVAC technicians, electricians, plumbers, and general mechanical service professionals who encounter external Torx hardware regularly in the field.

Key Features

• E22 external Torx profile fits external Torx fasteners directly
• 1/2 inch drive compatible with standard 1/2 inch drive manual tools
• Black oxide finish resists corrosion in shop and field environments
• Intended for manual drive tools only — not for use with impact drivers

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and general-use socket for 1/2 inch drive manual ratchets, breaker bars, and torque wrenches requiring an E22 external Torx interface.

Installation Notes

Installation and removal of Torx fasteners should be performed by qualified tradespeople using appropriate manual drive tools. Do not use this socket with pneumatic or electric impact drivers, as it is rated for manual drive use only. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque to avoid fastener damage or socket slippage.
