Carlyle 1/2 1Drive 13mm Hex Bit Socket 82mm Long (CSH1213M)

Description

Genuine Carlyle · Part no. CSH1213M

Carlyle CSH1213M is a 13mm hex bit socket on 1/2in drive, 82mm long, with an S2 steel bit held in a chrome vanadium socket finished in mirror chrome. 13mm is an in-between size, worth having when the next size down rocks in the head and the next one up won't go in.

Good to know

• How do I know 13mm is right? Push it into the cleaned bolt head: the right size goes fully home with no rock, while one size too small can round the head as soon as it is loaded.
• Can a new bit save a rounded bolt? Not if it is badly rounded: a bit won't grip a badly rounded head, and that needs a screw or bolt extractor instead.
• Is it for an impact gun? No, chrome sockets can crack or shatter on an impact gun; use it on a ratchet, breaker bar or torque wrench.

Which one?

For an impact gun, pick from the Carlyle 8 Piece 1/2DR Hex Impact Socket 6 – 19MM (CISS128HM); for longer reach in bigger sizes, the Carlyle 1/2 1Drive 18mm Hex Bit Socket 100mm Long (CSH1218M).
