Description
Genuine Carlyle · Part no. CIS38E16
Carlyle's CIS38E16 is an E16 external star impact socket on a 3/8 inch drive. Chrome molybdenum steel and a black phosphate finish suit impact and air tools, and it fits over the larger E-Torx bolt heads found on modern engines and gearboxes.
Good to know
- Should I use a full-power impact gun on E16 bolts? Only to undo them. Tighten engine and gearbox bolts to the manual's figure with a torque wrench.
- Why are my E-Torx heads rounding? Usually a worn or wrong-size socket, or the socket wasn't fully on. Replace worn sockets and push this one fully over the head.
- Do I need impact extensions too? With an impact gun, yes. A chrome extension can crack under impact, just like a chrome socket.
Which one?
The chrome CS38E16 is the E16 for hand use. For a 3/8 inch impact set from E5 to E16, the Carlyle 9 Piece 3/8 Drive external star E5 to E16 (CISS389ET) covers the smaller sizes as well.
