Proto J5536M 36mm 3/4 Drive 12-point Hand Socket

Product Description

The PROTO J5536M is a 36 mm, 12-point hand socket built on a 3/4 inch drive. It is designed for high-torque fastener work where a standard-length socket is the right tool for the job. The chrome-plated finish resists corrosion and makes cleanup straightforward after use in shop or field environments. At 0.92 pounds and 2.2 inches in length, this socket delivers a solid, balanced feel without unnecessary bulk. Licensed tradespeople and experienced mechanics working on heavy equipment, industrial machinery, or commercial vehicles will find this size and drive combination well-suited to large-format fasteners.

This socket is appropriate for use in industrial maintenance, heavy equipment repair, fleet service, and commercial mechanical applications where 36 mm fasteners are encountered. The 3/4 inch drive pairs with standard 3/4 inch drive ratchets, breaker bars, and torque wrenches. The 12-point design allows entry at 30-degree increments, which is useful in confined or partially obstructed work areas. It is typically used by industrial mechanics, millwrights, and heavy-duty vehicle technicians who require a reliable hand socket for large hex fasteners.

Key Features

• 36 mm socket size for large-format fastener applications
• 3/4 inch drive compatible with standard heavy-duty drive tools
• 12-point design allows 30-degree engagement increments
• Standard-length profile for general-purpose use
• Chrome-plated finish for corrosion resistance and ease of cleaning

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style hand socket for use with standard 3/4 inch drive ratchets, breaker bars, extensions, and torque wrenches in industrial and heavy-duty mechanical service applications.

Installation Notes

This socket is installed and used by industrial mechanics, heavy equipment technicians, and millwrights. Ensure the drive tool is rated for the torque required by the fastener before applying load. Inspect the socket for cracks or deformation before each use and remove from service if any damage is found. Do not use hand sockets with impact wrenches unless explicitly rated for impact use.
