Apex 80772 Deep Socket 1/2 Drive 12 Point 7/16 Inch

Product Description

The APEX 80772 is a 7/16 inch, 12-point deep socket designed for 1/2 inch drive ratchets and impact-rated hand tools. Constructed from alloy steel with a full polish chrome finish, it delivers the strength and corrosion resistance that production shops and field technicians expect. The 12-point configuration provides more engagement positions in tight quarters, while the deep length accommodates extended fasteners, studs, and recessed bolt heads that standard-length sockets cannot reach. Large, hard-stamped size markings make identification fast in a crowded tray or toolbox.

This socket suits a wide range of professional applications including automotive service, equipment maintenance, and industrial assembly work. The deep length is particularly useful when working around protruding studs or when access to a fastener is partially obstructed. It is sold individually and fits standard 1/2 inch drive ratchets, breaker bars, and extensions common in any professional tool setup.

• 7/16 inch 12-point opening for maximum engagement positions in confined spaces

Compatibility

Installation Notes
