SATA GL16508 3/4" Drive 12 Point Socket 1.3/16"

A 12-point design provides more contact points with the fastener, which can allow faster alignment and engagement, reducing the chance of rounding. It’s particularly useful when space is limited and you need to angle the tool to start turning the fastener.

Key specs: drive size is 3/4", socket size is 1-3/16" (1.1875"), material is chrome vanadium steel for strength, finish is chrome-plated for corrosion resistance, it features off-corner loading for reduced fastener rounding, and large markings for easy SAE identification with a dual SAE/metric print (double line for SAE and knurled line for MM) to distinguish standard and metric sizes.

Off-corner loading shifts contact away from the very edges of the fastener, reducing rounding and wear on the corners of bolts and nuts. This improves durability and prolongs both the fastener and the socket when used under high torque.

The socket includes large, easy‑to‑read markings on the exterior. It also features a dual SAE/metric identification system, with clearly labeled size indicators so you can distinguish standard (SAE) from metric sizes at a glance.

It’s well suited for high‑torque applications that involve large fasteners, such as automotive suspension work, heavy machinery maintenance, construction equipment assembly, and other industrial tasks where 1‑3/16" size fasteners are common.

Attach the 3/4" drive ratchet, breaker bar, or torque wrench to the socket, ensure the fastener is aligned, and engage with a straight push or a short, deliberate twist. Apply torque gradually and avoid sudden impacts to extend tool life.

Always wear eye protection and gloves as needed. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque, use the proper drive, avoid excessive force that could cause slippage, and inspect the socket for wear or cracks after heavy use.

Keep it clean and dry to prevent rust; wipe off any grease or debris after use; store in a dry toolbox or rack; and periodically inspect for wear or corrosion. A chrome-plated finish helps resist rust but still benefits from proper care.

Yes. It combines a durable chrome vanadium construction with a corrosion‑resistant chrome finish, off‑corner loading for reduced fastener rounding, and clearly marked size identification, all of which contribute to longer service life and fewer replacements in demanding settings.
