Description
Genuine Carlyle · Part no. S38E16
The Carlyle S38E16 is an E16 external star socket with a 3/8in square drive, a mid-size E socket that suits a 3/8in ratchet or torque wrench. It fits over raised star bolt heads of that size, is finished in polished chrome and is made for hand tools, not impact guns.
Good to know
- Is a 3/8in drive enough? A 3/8in ratchet is lighter and fits tighter spaces; for a bolt that needs a lot of force, a bigger-drive breaker bar on an adaptor gives more leverage.
- How can I check it is E16? Slide the socket on by hand: it should cover the whole star with no rocking; if it rocks, the bolt is a smaller E size.
- Is it impact rated? No, this is a non-impact chrome socket; for an impact gun use a black impact E socket instead.
Which one?
For an impact gun, the Carlyle 9 Piece 3/8 Drive external star E5 to E16 (CISS389ET) is made for impact tools; the hand-use Carlyle 11 Piece External E Torx Socket Set E4 to E20 (CBSET11) covers every size.
