Proto J5413M 13mm 12-point Hand Socket 1/2 Drive

Product Description

The PROTO J5413M is a 13 mm, 12-point hand socket designed for use with a 1/2 inch drive ratchet or breaker bar. Chrome-plated construction provides corrosion resistance and a clean finish that holds up in daily shop and field use. The 12-point design allows engagement every 30 degrees, making it practical in tight-clearance fastener situations. This is a standard-length socket suited for general mechanical and maintenance work where consistent fastener engagement and durability are required. Mechanics, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals working on HVAC equipment, piping systems, or mechanical assemblies will find this socket a reliable addition to a 1/2 inch drive socket set.

The J5413M fits common 13 mm hex fasteners found across a wide range of mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical panel applications. Its standard length profile suits most open-access bolt and nut configurations. This socket is sold as an individual piece, making it a practical replacement or addition to an existing PROTO 1/2 inch drive socket set.

Installation Notes

Ensure the drive tool and socket are fully seated before applying torque to prevent slippage or rounding of the fastener. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use and replace if deformation is visible.
