Apex 82516 Long Torx Bit Socket 1/4 in Drive T30

Product Description

The APEX 82516 is a long Torx bit socket designed for 1/4 inch drive ratchets and wrenches. It features a T30 Torx bit profile and an overall length of 5.105 inches, giving technicians the reach needed to access deeply recessed or hard-to-reach internal Torx fasteners. The base socket is constructed from heat-treated alloy steel for durability and extended tool life. The bit itself is manufactured from S2 steel, a high-impact tool steel that resists rounding and fracturing under heavy torque loads. This socket is well suited for professional technicians working in automotive, HVAC, and industrial service applications.

The 82516 is intended for use wherever a standard-length bit socket cannot reach internal Torx fasteners. The extended 5.105-inch body is particularly useful in tight engine bays, equipment panels, and enclosed mechanical assemblies where fastener depth or surrounding obstructions block access with shorter tooling. It fits any standard 1/4 inch drive ratchet, extension bar, or torque wrench. Technicians across automotive, HVAC equipment service, and general mechanical trades will find this a practical addition to a bit socket set.

Key Features

• T30 Torx bit profile for internal Torx fasteners
• 1/4 inch drive square interface compatible with standard drive tools
• Extended 5.105-inch length for access to deep or obstructed fasteners
• Heat-treated alloy steel base socket for durability and long service life
• S2 steel bit construction for high-impact strength and torque resistance
• Sold individually (each)

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1/4 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches. Compatible with any application requiring a T30 long Torx bit socket on a 1/4 inch drive platform.

Installation Notes

This socket is installed and used by mechanics, HVAC technicians, and industrial service professionals. Ensure the drive tool is rated for the torque demand of the fastener before use. Inspect the bit tip for wear before each use — a worn Torx profile can damage fastener heads. Use with a torque wrench where fastener specifications require controlled torque values.
