Apex 80776 Socket 1/2 in Drive 12 Point 11/16 in Sae

Product Description

The APEX 80776 is a 12-point, 1/2 inch drive socket sized at 11/16 inch SAE, built from alloy steel with a full polish chrome finish. It is designed for fastener removal and installation in mechanical, HVAC, and plumbing service applications where precise torque transfer and fast operation are required. The off-corner loading design applies force to the flats of the fastener rather than the corners, reducing the risk of rounding fastener heads. Large, hard-stamped size markings make identification fast in low-light shop conditions. Licensed trades and service professionals can use this socket across a broad range of equipment service tasks.

This socket fits standard 1/2 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches. It is suited for residential and light commercial mechanical service, including equipment installation, panel work, and fixture mounting where 11/16 inch SAE fasteners are common. The 12-point configuration allows engagement every 30 degrees, useful in tight quarters with limited ratchet swing. This socket is sold individually and is compatible with standard 1/2 inch drive tool sets used across the HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trades.
