Industrial fastener socket for manual drives
The Steelman 60278-09 is a 3-1/4-inch 8-point locknut socket built for hand-operated 3/4-inch drive ratchets, extensions, adapters or torque wrenches. It targets technicians who service wheel bearing nuts and large industrial bolts without power or impact tools.
8-point geometry reduces corner wear
The eight-point design grips fastener flats rather than corners, lowering the risk of rounding during high-torque break-loose or final-tightening steps. Manual operation only is specified; the socket is not rated for impact or power wrench use.
Black powder coat resists chipping
A durable black powder-coat finish protects the carbon steel body from corrosion and abrasion in shop environments. Laser-etched size markings remain legible over time, and the 3/4-inch drive square fits existing manual drive tools without adapters.

Questions about this item
Will this 3/4-inch drive socket fit my existing breaker bar and torque wrench?
Yes, it works with any hand-operated 3/4-inch drive ratchet, extension, adapter or torque wrench.
How can I confirm the size marking is still legible after heavy use?
The 3-1/4 inch size callout is laser-etched into the steel and will not rub off.
Does the package include a ratchet or extension, or just the socket?
Only the 8-point locknut socket is supplied; ratchets, extensions or adapters must be purchased separately.
