Description
Genuine Carlyle · Part no. S38TP45
The Carlyle S38TP45 carries a TP45 Star Plus bit on a 3/8in square drive, for the larger Star Plus bolts. Its S2 steel bit fills the squarer lobes fully, which matters on a bolt that has been in place for years, and the chrome vanadium socket is mirror chrome plated against rust.
Good to know
- The bolt is seized, any tips? Clean the head, let penetrating oil soak in, seat the bit fully and pull steadily; don't hammer the ratchet or the bit can jump out.
- Can I put a breaker bar on it? Yes, through a 3/8in drive breaker bar; on very tight bolts keep the bar square so the bit stays seated.
- Will a standard star bit of a similar size do? No; Star Plus heads need a TP bit, and the wrong shape grips only the tips of the lobes.
Which one?
For the sizes either side, the TP40 (S38TP40) and TP50 (S38TP50); the boxed Carlyle Socket Set – Star Plus – Metric Size Various (BSTP12) covers a range.
