Apex 80683 Socket 1/2 in Drive 12 Point 29 Mm Chrome

Product Description

The APEX 80683 is a 1/2 inch drive, 12-point, 29 MM full polish chrome socket designed for professional fastener work across a wide range of applications. Built for speed and durability, it features an off-corner loading design that directs force onto the flats of fasteners rather than the corners, reducing fastener rounding and extending tool life. Large, hard-stamped size markings make identification fast in a busy shop or on a job site. The socket is finished in full polish chrome for corrosion resistance and easy cleaning. Weighing 0.35 pounds and measuring 1.575 inches in length, it is a compact and practical addition to any professional tool set.

This socket is suited for residential and commercial maintenance, mechanical repair, and trade installation work where a 1/2 inch drive 29 MM fastener is encountered. It fits standard 1/2 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches. The 12-point configuration allows engagement at multiple angles, which is useful in tight or awkward spaces. HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and general mechanical contractors will find this socket useful for equipment mounting, panel work, and mechanical assembly tasks.

Installation Notes
