Apex 80758 Socket 1/2 in Drive 12 Point 23 Mm Chrome

Product Description

The APEX 80758 is a 1/2 inch drive, 12-point, 23 MM full polish chrome socket designed for professional fastener work across mechanical, HVAC, and electrical service applications. The off-corner loading design transfers force to the flats of the fastener rather than the corners, reducing the risk of rounding hardware under torque. Large, hard-stamped size markings make identification fast in a crowded toolbox or service van. The full polish chrome finish resists corrosion and simplifies cleaning after use. At 0.28 pounds and 1.488 inches in length, this is a standard-length socket suited for most production and service tasks.

This socket fits standard 1/2 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and breaker bars. It is appropriate for residential and commercial service work where 23 MM fasteners are common, including equipment mounting hardware, HVAC unit fasteners, and mechanical assemblies. The 12-point configuration provides more engagement positions than a 6-point socket, useful in tight access situations where ratchet swing is limited. Sold individually.

Key Features

• 1/2 inch drive, 12-point design offers multiple engagement positions for limited-swing environments
• Off-corner loading transfers torque to fastener flats, reducing rounding under load
• Hard-stamped 23 MM size marking for fast identification
• Full polish chrome finish resists corrosion and simplifies cleanup
• Standard length at 1.488 inches for broad compatibility with common drive setups

Compatibility

Designed as a standard-length 1/2 inch drive socket compatible with 1/2 inch drive ratchets, extensions, torque wrenches, and breaker bars accepting 23 MM fasteners.

Installation Notes

Installation and removal of fasteners should be performed with a properly rated 1/2 inch drive torque wrench when torque specifications apply to the application. Inspect the socket for cracks or deformation before each use and do not use damaged sockets under load. Always confirm the correct socket size before applying torque to avoid fastener damage.
