Question 1

What is the SATA GL25803 1/2\" Drive Long Triple Square Bit Socket M8 used for?

Accepted Answer

The SATA GL25803 is a long 1/2\" drive socket built to fit M8 triple-square (XZN) fasteners. Its extended reach helps you access deep or recessed bolts, making it ideal for automotive, machinery, and equipment maintenance where standard-length sockets struggle.

Question 2

What are the main specifications of this socket?

Accepted Answer

Key specs include a 1/2\" drive, an extended long socket length, an M8 triple-square bit, a corrosion-resistant chrome finish, heat-treated construction for durability, laser-etched size markings for quick identification, and compatibility with standard ratchets and torque wrenches.

Question 3

How does the long socket design help in real-world tasks?

Accepted Answer

The longer body lets you reach fasteners that sit deep in assemblies or under tight spaces, reducing the need to reposition components and improving torque transmission without slipping.

Question 4

Is this socket compatible with standard 1/2\" drive ratchets and torque wrenches?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The GL25803 is designed for use with standard 1/2\" drive ratchets and compatible torque wrenches, giving you versatile performance across common fastening tools.

Question 5

How can I quickly identify the size on the tool?

Accepted Answer

The socket features laser-etched markings that clearly indicate it is M8, so you can identify the size at a glance even in dim workspaces.

Question 6

What are typical use cases for this M8 triple-square socket?

Accepted Answer

Common applications include automotive fasteners, engine compartments, transmission work, and machinery maintenance where M8 triple-square bolts are used and deep access is required.

Question 7

How do I install and use this socket correctly?

Accepted Answer

1) Attach the GL25803 to a 1/2\" drive ratchet or torque wrench. 2) Ensure the M8 triple-square bit engages the fastener fully. 3) Apply steady torque within the tool’s rated capacity, keeping the socket seated to prevent rounding. 4) Use in a stable stance and avoid hard hammer blows; use power tools only within recommended torque ranges.

Question 8

What safety considerations should I keep in mind when using this long socket?

Accepted Answer

Always ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener, wear eye protection when working in tight or spinning environments, keep hands clear of moving parts, and avoid using the tool beyond its torque rating to prevent damage to fasteners or tools.
