Apex 80794 Socket 1/2 in Drive 12 Point 1-1/4 in Sae

Product Description

The APEX 80794 is a 1/2 inch drive, 12-point socket designed for professional fastener work in demanding trade environments. Built from alloy steel with a full polish chrome finish, it drives 1-1/4 inch SAE fasteners. The 12-point geometry uses an off-corner loading design that applies force to the flats of the fastener rather than the corners, reducing the risk of rounding fastener heads under high torque. Hard-stamped size markings are large and deeply impressed for quick identification in a crowded toolbox or on a busy job site. Measuring 1.654 inches in length and weighing 0.5 pounds, it is sized for standard-reach applications.

This socket is suited for mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trade work wherever 1/2 inch drive tooling is standard. It fits standard 1/2 inch drive ratchets, breaker bars, torque wrenches, and extensions. The SAE sizing targets fasteners common in domestic equipment, commercial HVAC systems, piping assemblies, and structural hardware. It is sold individually and is appropriate for both bench work and field service use by licensed tradespeople and experienced DIYers alike.

Installation Notes

This socket should be installed onto a 1/2 inch drive tool with the square drive fully seated before applying torque. Always confirm the socket size matches the fastener before driving to prevent fastener damage. Inspect the socket for cracks or chips before use, and do not use impact-rated sockets interchangeably with standard chrome sockets on impact drivers unless rated for impact service.
