STEELMAN 60256-06 Locknut Socket

The STEELMAN 60256-06 is a 3-inch 6-point locknut socket built for manual removal and installation of wheel bearing nuts and large industrial fasteners. It suits mechanics and technicians who need a durable hand-tool socket for heavy-duty fastening work. The 6-point design grips fastener sides rather than corners to reduce rounding and premature wear. It is made for use with any 3/4-inch drive ratchet, extension, adapter, or torque wrench.

6-Point Grip and Carbon Steel Durability

High-strength carbon steel construction provides long-lasting durability for demanding industrial applications. An industrial black powder coat resists chipping and fading over extended use. Laser-etched size markings remain legible and will not rub off during service. The 6-point geometry distributes force across fastener flats to minimise rounding. This socket is not intended for power or impact tools; manual operation only is specified.

3/4-Inch Drive Compatibility and Manual Use

The socket fits any standard 3/4-inch drive hand ratchet, extension, adapter, or torque wrench for straightforward integration into existing tool sets. Manual-only use means no impact or power tools are required, simplifying workshop setup. California Proposition 65 warnings apply for chemicals known to cause cancer and reproductive harm. Buyers needing impact-rated sockets or powered fastening solutions should select a different tool.

Questions about this item

Will the 3/4-inch drive fit the breaker bar I already own?

Yes, the socket accepts any hand-operated 3/4-inch drive ratchet, extension, adapter or torque wrench.

How can I confirm the 6-point grip is engaging the flats and not the corners?

After seating the socket, turn slowly; the flats of the fastener should sit flush against the socket walls without visible corner contact.

Does the package include a ratchet or extension, or must I supply my own 3/4-inch drive tools?

Only the locknut socket is included; a 3/4-inch drive ratchet, extension, adapter or torque wrench must be provided separately.
