SOCKET 3/8'DR 22MM 12PT CRV

Drive Size: ³/₈"
Drive Type: Square Drive

The 22mm 12-point socket is a heavy-duty specialty tool that pushes the boundaries of the 3/8' drive system, providing a high-capacity solution for the largest fasteners in your metric collection. This size is essential for tackling high-torque applications such as oxygen sensors, large suspension mounting bolts, and axle nuts. By utilizing a 3/8' drive, this socket offers a more agile and lower-profile alternative to bulky 1/2' drive counterparts, allowing technicians to apply substantial leverage in tight clearances where larger tools cannot reach.

The 12-point (double-hex) geometry is engineered for maximum speed and accessibility. By doubling the available contact points, it allows for seamless engagement with 22mm fasteners with only a minimal 30-degree rotation of the handle. This is a vital advantage in modern, cramped engine bays or complex industrial machinery where the swing arc is often obstructed by brackets or tubing, ensuring you can find a secure seat on the bolt head without frustration.

Constructed from premium Chrome Vanadium (Cr-V) steel, this socket is forged for extreme durability and professional performance. The industrial-grade alloy is precision heat-treated to ensure the tool remains rigid and resists deforming under the significant rotational stress required for 22mm hardware. To defend against the harsh reality of the workshop, it features a mirror-polished chrome finish that provides exceptional resistance to rust, corrosion, and the buildup of grease and oil.

Inside the socket, precision-machined broaching ensures an exacting, high-tolerance fit. This meticulous design focuses torque on the flat sides of the fastener rather than the corners, which dramatically reduces the risk of rounding off your hardware and ensures a reliable grip every time. Whether you are a professional technician performing a heavy-duty chassis repair or a DIYer working on a specialized restoration, this 22mm socket delivers the heavy-duty reliability and precision you can count on.
