Question 1

What is the SATA ST13813 1/2" Drive 12 Point Deep Socket 13mm and what does it do?

Accepted Answer

It's a deep-well 13mm socket designed for 1/2" drive ratchets, offering a secure grip on hex fasteners with enough depth to reach long bolts in tight spaces.

Question 2

What does a 12-point design mean, and why would I choose it over a 6-point socket?

Accepted Answer

A 12-point design provides more contact points with the fastener, improving grip and reducing the chance of rounding in tight spaces. It’s especially helpful when alignment is challenging.

Question 3

What does 'deep socket' mean and when should I use it?

Accepted Answer

A deep socket has a longer body that allows you to reach long bolts or nuts that sit deeper inside assemblies. Use it when standard-depth sockets can’t reach the fastener.

Question 4

What is off-corner loading and what benefit does it offer?

Accepted Answer

Off-corner loading shifts contact away from the very corner of the fastener, reducing the risk of rounding and providing safer, more durable torque transfer.

Question 5

What materials is this socket made from and what is the finish like?

Accepted Answer

It’s made from chrome vanadium steel with a polished chrome finish, offering strength and corrosion resistance for long-term use.

Question 6

Is this socket compatible with typical 1/2" drive ratchets and extensions?

Accepted Answer

Yes. It is designed to work with most standard 1/2" drive ratchets and extensions, giving you flexible setup options.

Question 9

How should I care for and store this socket to extend its life?

Accepted Answer

Question 10

How can I quickly identify that this is the right size (13mm) for my fasteners?

Question 11

How does this 13mm socket compare to other SATA 12-point deep sockets in terms of features?

Accepted Answer
