Proto J5526M 26mm 12-point 3/4 Drive Hand Socket

Product Description

The PROTO J5526M is a 26 mm, 12-point hand socket designed for 3/4 inch drive ratchets and breaker bars. Chrome-plated for corrosion resistance and easy cleaning, it is built to standard length for general-purpose fastener work. The 12-point geometry allows engagement in tight spaces where swing arc is limited, making it a practical choice for mechanics, maintenance technicians, and industrial tradespeople who work on heavy equipment, fleet vehicles, or large-bore fastener applications. At 0.59 pounds, the J5526M is solid without adding unnecessary bulk to a socket set.

This socket is suited for residential, commercial, and industrial mechanical work wherever 26 mm fasteners are encountered. Typical applications include heavy-duty equipment maintenance, truck and fleet service, industrial machinery repair, and structural assembly tasks. The 3/4 inch drive is common in heavy mechanical and industrial environments where higher torque output is required and larger drive tools are standard.

Key Features

• 26 mm socket size for metric fastener applications
• 12-point design for engagement flexibility in confined spaces
• 3/4 inch drive compatible with standard ratchets and breaker bars
• Chrome-plated finish for corrosion resistance and surface durability

Compatibility

Designed as a standard OEM-style 3/4 inch drive hand socket compatible with 3/4 inch drive ratchets, breaker bars, and extensions following standard drive tool conventions.

Installation Notes

This socket is installed and removed by hand tool technicians and mechanics using 3/4 inch drive ratchets or breaker bars. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque to avoid rounding. Inspect the socket and drive tool for wear or cracks before use under high torque loads. Standard hand tool safety practices apply.
