Built from alloy steel with a chrome-plated finish, it accepts 1-3\/16-inch fasteners and meets ASME B107.110-2012 dimensional and performance standards. At 2-7\/32 inches overall length, it fits in tight spaces without sacrificing strength. This socket is suited for heavy-duty mechanical work including industrial maintenance, fleet service, and equipment repair where larger fastener sizes are common.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis socket is used in commercial, industrial, and fleet maintenance environments wherever 1-3\/16-inch hex fasteners need to be driven or removed. The 12-point profile provides more engagement positions than a 6-point socket, making it useful when swing arc is limited. It is not tether capable, so it is best suited for ground-level or bench-level applications rather than overhead work at height. Licensed mechanics, millwrights, and maintenance technicians are the primary users.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e12-point socket profile for more drive positions in confined spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/4-inch drive size for use with heavy-duty ratchets and breaker bars\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlloy steel construction for high torque applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChrome-plated finish for corrosion resistance and easy cleaning\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ASME B107.110-2012 standard for hand socket dimensions and performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStandard length at 2-7\/32 inches overall for general-purpose use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 3\/4-inch drive ratchets, extensions, and breaker bars that accept standard square-drive sockets.
