1/2-in drive deep socket
A Wheeler-Rex 982 socket with a 1/2-in drive and 1-1/4-in SAE size fits large fasteners in automotive and industrial maintenance. The six-point alloy-steel body is zinc-plated for corrosion resistance. Extra-deep construction provides 5 in of bolt clearance for recessed hardware. Not impact rated, so it is intended for hand use only.
Hand-tool users needing deep reach
Technicians who must remove or tighten large bolts in deep recesses will find the extra length useful. The non-impact rating means it should not be used with powered drivers. Buyers who need an impact-rated socket or a smaller drive size should look at other options.
5-in bolt clearance
The 5-in bolt clearance is the single specification that determines whether this socket reaches the fastener in your application. Measure the recess depth before ordering to confirm fit.

A 1/2 in drive ratchet or breaker bar is required to operate the 1/2 in drive socket included with the Wheeler-Rex 982.
Will the 1-1/4" SAE socket fit the same fasteners as my existing 1/2" drive socket set?
Yes, the 1-1/4" SAE 6-point socket works with any standard 1/2" drive tool you already own.
