Description

Genuine Carlyle · Part no. CS38018M

Carlyle's CS38018M is an 18mm six-point socket for 3/8in drive, shallow, polished chrome with a knurled band. It fits ISO M12 nuts and other 18mm heads, and the six-point radius corners drive on the flats, so it holds firmly on the bigger, tighter fasteners where a twelve-point might slip.

Good to know

  • How do I know if my M12 nut is 18mm or 19mm? Try this socket first: if it slides fully on with no rocking, it is 18mm; if it won't go on, step up to 19mm.
  • Is 3/8in drive enough for an 18mm nut? On many engine fixings, yes. Very tight suspension and chassis nuts are better broken free with a 1/2in breaker bar first.
  • Can I put it on a cordless impact gun? No. Chrome sockets can crack or shatter under impact blows; use the impact version on a gun.

Which one?

For an impact gun use the Carlyle 3/8 Drive 18mm 6 Point Standard Impact Socket (CIS3818M); for nuts on long studs, the Carlyle 3/8 Drive 18mm Deep Chrome Socket (CSD38018M).

Key features

  • 18mm six-point shallow socket
  • 3/8in square drive
  • Polished chrome-plated finish
  • Knurled band
  • Radiused corners grip the flats
