16 mm Metric Socket, 6 & 12 Point
The Facom FM-76.16 is a new metric socket designed for 16 mm fasteners. It features a dual-profile head that accepts both 6-point and 12-point configurations. The L-shaped wrench form provides two drive ends in a single alloy-steel tool with a satin finish.
Mechanics needing one tool for two drive profiles
Technicians who want a single socket covering both 6-point and 12-point engagement will find this practical. Users who require a dedicated single-profile socket or a different drive size should look at other options.
Dual 6-point and 12-point head
The defining specification is the combined 6-point and 12-point socket head on a 16 mm metric size. This dual-profile design determines whether the tool matches the fastener access and grip requirements of the job.

Questions about this item
Will the 12-point and 6-point socket profiles need re-profiling after heavy use?
The alloy-steel heads hold their 12-point and 6-point geometry under normal torque; no re-profiling is expected during the tool's service life.
What stops the 16 mm socket from rounding off fasteners during sustained high-torque jobs?
The dual 12-point and 6-point contact faces distribute load across more flats, reducing the chance of rounding before the alloy steel yields.
Does the satin-finish alloy steel get too hot to handle during all-day bolting?
The metal conducts heat quickly but stays near ambient temperature in typical hand-tightening cycles; gloves are only needed for extreme loads.
