With its 18mm profile, the Tolsen 16568 18mm Deep Socket reaches recessed bolts where standard sockets fail. 50BV30 steel provides the structural density required for high-torque manual ratchets. A chrome-plated exterior prevents oxidation during storage in high humidity.
Key Features
- 50BV30 Forged Steel: Heat-treated alloy with high Rockwell hardness. The socket walls resist expansion under heavy load.
- Chrome Plated Finish: Protective layer over the industrial-grade steel body. It repels moisture and prevents rust during humid conditions.
- Ball Retaining Groove: Internal locking mechanism for 1/2 inch drive tools. This keeps the socket attached when working in vertical positions.
- DIN3124 Standard Compliance: Manufactured to specific international dimensional tolerances. It fits 18mm fasteners without slipping or stripping bolt edges.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Tolsen 16568 suitable for industrial use?
It handles professional torque requirements due to the 50BV30 steel and heat treatment. These properties prevent metal fatigue in high-frequency workshop environments.
What is the material of Tolsen deep sockets?
Tolsen uses 50BV30 alloy steel for this industrial series. This material offers superior hardness compared to basic chrome vanadium tools.
