Carlyle 1/2 Drive 15mm 6 Point Chrome Socket (CS12015M)

Description

Genuine Carlyle · Part no. CS12015M

This Carlyle CS12015M is a 15mm chrome socket in 1/2in drive, standard depth, six-point, with radius corners and a mirror-polished chrome-plated finish. It fills the gap between 14mm and 16mm in a 1/2in kit, which matters because an almost-right socket on a tight 15mm bolt is the quickest way to round it off.

Good to know

• Is my bolt 15mm or 14mm? Try the socket before applying force: a correct one slides on with only a hint of play. If it turns a little before gripping, it's too big and will round the head.
• Can I use it with a torque wrench? Yes; a 1/2in torque wrench takes it directly, which is how bolts that have a set figure should be finished.
• Is it impact rated? No. It is a chrome socket for hand tools; chrome can crack or shatter on an impact gun.

Which one?

For a nut on a long stud, the deep 15mm chrome CSD12015M; on a gun, use the deep 15mm impact CISD12015M. The Carlyle 1/2in Drive Ratchet 90-Tooth 635mm Long Handle Comfort Grip (CR1290GXL) gives extra leverage.
