Gearwrench 82575 Hex Bit Socket 1/2 Inch Drive 14 Mm

Product Description

The GEARWRENCH 82575 is a 1/2 inch drive hex bit socket designed for driving hex fasteners in mechanical, automotive, and industrial applications. Built from steel with a chrome finish, this socket measures 3.66 inches overall length with a 2.87 inch bit length, giving technicians reach and clearance in tight fastener locations. The 14 mm hex bit size covers a common range of metric fastener heads found throughout powertrain, drivetrain, and equipment assemblies. Licensed tradespeople and experienced DIYers working on machinery, vehicles, or structural assemblies will find this socket a reliable addition to their drive set.

This socket is suited for residential and commercial mechanical work where 14 mm hex fasteners are encountered, including engine components, suspension hardware, and industrial equipment fasteners. The 1/2 inch drive connection pairs with standard 1/2 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches commonly found in professional toolkits. It is appropriate for hand-torquing applications as defined by ANSI and ASME standards compliance.
