It features a 1\/2 inch drive and is constructed from alloy steel with a chrome-plated finish that resists corrosion and cleans easily in shop conditions. The socket measures 1-25\/32 inches in overall length, placing it in the standard-length category. It meets ASME B107.5M standards, making it suitable for demanding trade applications where dimensional accuracy and material strength are required. Licensed mechanics, industrial maintenance technicians, and heavy equipment service professionals are the primary installers of this type of socket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis socket is suited for fastener work in automotive, fleet maintenance, industrial equipment, and heavy-duty mechanical applications where a 31 mm fastener head is encountered. The 12-point design increases the number of engagement positions, which is useful in tight access situations where ratchet swing angle is limited. The 1\/2 inch drive pairs with standard 1\/2 inch drive ratchets, breaker bars, torque wrenches, and extensions commonly found in professional tool sets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e31 mm socket size for metric fastener applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e12-point design for more engagement positions in confined spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/2 inch drive compatible with standard ratchets, torque wrenches, and breaker bars\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlloy steel construction for strength and durability under high torque\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChrome-plated finish resists corrosion and simplifies cleaning\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ASME B107.5M standards for dimensional and performance compliance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStandard length at 1-25\/32 inches overall for general-purpose use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a standard 1\/2 inch drive metric hand socket compatible with 1\/2 inch drive ratchets, torque wrenches, breaker bars, and extensions from major tool manufacturers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis socket is intended for use by qualified mechanics and maintenance technicians working on mechanical fasteners. Always confirm the fastener size before applying torque to avoid rounding. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener and drive tool before use. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use and remove it from service if damage is found.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSocket Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 31 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Points\u003c\/strong\u003e: 12\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-25\/32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chrome-Plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.561 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.9 inches x 1.5 inches x 1.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandard\u003c\/strong\u003e: ASME B107.5M\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty\u003c\/strong\u003e: Limited Lifetime\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTether Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Not Tether Capable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: PROTO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: J5431M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PROTO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51544600609074,"sku":"J5431M","price":31.37,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/048bb2d89976d28aac21a0935ecaf260.jpg?v=1785931075","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/proto-j5431m-31mm-12-point-1-2-drive-hand-socket","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
