Milwaukee 3/8 Drive Socket Metric Deep-13MM (4932478357)

Description

Genuine Milwaukee · Part no. 4932478357

A 13mm deep socket for 3/8in drive tools, chrome plated with a stamped size. On European cars an M8 nut or bolt usually has a 13mm head, so this is a hard-working size, and the deep body reaches the many 13mm nuts that sit on studs, from manifolds to thermostat housings and brackets.

Good to know

• Why are 13mm nuts on studs so common? Exhaust manifold and downpipe nuts often sit on studs, so a deep socket may be needed, and they are often rusted, so soak them in penetrating oil first.
• What if a stud starts to turn with the nut? Stop and let the penetrating oil work, then try again with steady pressure. Forcing it can snap the stud, which turns a short job into a long one.
• Is this socket deep enough for every stud? Not always. If the stud is very long, check the depth of the socket against the thread before you start.
