SATA GL13109 1/2" Drive 6 Point Socket 13/16"

A 6-point socket grips the flat sides of a hex fastener more fully, reducing rounding and slipping when dealing with high torque. It’s generally easier to get alignment and a tight fit on stubborn nuts compared to a 12-point design.

Drive size: 1/2"; Socket size: 13/16"; 6-point design; Material: chrome vanadium steel; Finish: chrome-plated; Notable features: off-corner loading for reduced rounding, large size markings, and SAE/metric identification marks (double line for SAE and knurled line for MM).

Off-corner loading shifts contact away from the sharp corners of a fastener. This reduces rounding and increases torque transfer reliability, especially on stubborn or worn fasteners.

The large size markings help you quickly identify the socket size, while the SAE (standard) and metric (MM) lines make it easy to distinguish standard vs. metric sockets at a glance, reducing mix-ups on the job.

Automotive repair, machinery maintenance, construction tasks, and any project that involves loosening or tightening 13/16" hex fasteners with a 1/2" drive.

Use it with a 1/2" drive ratchet or torque wrench. Ensure the socket fully fits the fastener and apply torque gradually. If using power tools, verify compatibility and avoid using tools beyond the socket’s intended design unless rated for impact use.

Wipe it clean after use and dry it to prevent corrosion. Store in a dry, organized tray or case. The chrome-plated finish resists rust, but avoid prolonged exposure to moisture and impact impacts that could nick the surface.

This socket is designed for standard torque work with a 1/2" drive. If you plan to use impact tools, confirm the socket’s impact rating first and use only compatible, impact-rated sockets to prevent cracking or failure.

Compared with typical 1/2" drive sockets, the GL13109 adds off-corner loading for reduced fastener rounding and features both large size markings and SAE/metric indicators for quick identification, making it a versatile choice for mixed-use shops. If you need a different size or a metric-specific option, explore other 1/2" drive sockets in Fepy’s catalog to find the closest match.

Measure the fastener across flats or use a caliper, then match it to the socket size. The GL13109 is clearly marked as 13/16" on its body, and the large markings help quick identification during setup.
