- Firm grip on tight fasteners
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
