1/2" Drive SAE Socket 1-5/16
This Westward socket fits a 1/2 inch drive and targets a 1-5/16 inch SAE fastener. It suits mechanics and technicians who need a standard-depth hex socket for heavy-duty fastening tasks. The six-point configuration grips flat sides of the fastener to reduce rounding risk.
Alloy steel construction with full polish
The socket is made from alloy steel and features a full polished finish that resists corrosion and wipes clean easily. A female square drive accepts standard 1/2 inch ratchets or breaker bars without adapters. Standard tool length of 1-1/2 inches keeps the profile compact in tight engine bays or under chassis components.
Replaces worn or missing 1-5/16" sockets
This piece upgrades a toolkit when the previous 1-5/16 inch socket is damaged, lost, or only available in a twelve-point version. The jump is worth it when a six-point grip is required for high-torque applications on stubborn or damaged fasteners. It meets ASME B107.110-2012 dimensional standards for interchangeability.

Questions about this item
What drive standard does the 1/2" square drive follow, and what torque limit does it cap in practice?
The socket uses a 1/2" female square drive built to ASME B107.110-2012, so it fits any 1/2" ratchet or breaker bar that meets the same standard.
What physical clearance does the 1-5/16" hex socket need to fit on a fastener?
The six-point hex opening measures 1-5/16" across flats and the overall length is 1-1/2", so allow at least that depth plus the ratchet head height.
How is the socket installed on a 1/2" drive tool, and what step do people often miss?
Push the socket onto the 1/2" square drive until the detent ball clicks into the socket's retention groove; the missed step is not verifying that the ball is fully seated before applying torque.
