Apex SC-520 Power Socket 1/2 in Drive 1/2 in Hex

Product Description

The APEX SC-520 is a power socket designed for use with 1/2 inch square drive tools. It accepts a 1/2 inch hex fastener and features a 0.625 inch socket size with an overall length of 1.5 inches. Built for repetitive, high-torque fastening applications, this socket is a standard choice for mechanics, HVAC technicians, electricians, and other trade professionals who rely on impact-rated or power drive tooling. The square drive interface provides positive engagement with 1/2 inch drive ratchets, impact wrenches, and extensions commonly found in field service kits.

The SC-520 fits into maintenance and installation workflows where 1/2 inch hex fasteners are encountered on equipment panels, structural brackets, flanges, and mechanical assemblies. It is suited for both shop use and field service environments. Single-piece packaging makes it practical as a replacement for a worn or missing socket in an existing set or as a dedicated socket for a specific fastener size on a recurring job.
