Apex 80764 Socket 1/2 in Drive 12 Pt 11/16 in Sae

Product Description

The APEX 80764 is a 1/2 inch drive, 12-point socket in an 11/16 inch SAE size, constructed from alloy steel with a full polish chrome finish. Designed for professional use, it delivers reliable torque transfer through an off-corner loading design that applies force to the flats of fasteners rather than the corners. This reduces the risk of fastener rounding and extends the life of both the socket and the fastener. Large, hard-stamped size markings make identification fast on a crowded tool cart or in a bucket. HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and general trade professionals will find this socket a dependable addition to their 1/2 inch drive set.

This socket is suited for residential and commercial service work where a 1/2 inch drive tool is the appropriate torque range. Common applications include equipment mounting hardware, conduit fittings, panel work, mechanical room installations, and field service repairs. At 1.488 inches in length, it falls within a standard reach profile appropriate for most unobstructed fastener locations.

Key Features

• 1/2 inch drive, 12-point configuration for broad wrench and ratchet compatibility
• Off-corner loading design reduces fastener rounding under torque
• Full polish chrome alloy steel construction for corrosion resistance and durability

Installation Notes

This socket is installed by a licensed or journeyman-level trade professional using a 1/2 inch drive ratchet or torque wrench. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque to prevent slippage. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use and replace if the drive or socket bore shows deformation. Do not use impact-rated tools with chrome hand sockets unless the socket is rated for impact use.
