Product Features & Engineering
- Ultra-Compact Profile: Engineered to be roughly 30% shorter than a conventional combination of a standard socket paired with an independent universal joint adapter. This significantly lowers the tool's clearance height, granting maximum mobility inside tight engine bays or heavy industrial framework.
- Drive Specification: Standard 1/2 inch square drive.
- Fastener Profile: 12-Point configuration, allowing for easier, more flexible engagement over hexagonal fasteners in confined areas where tool swing angle is restricted.
- OGV® Geometry: Built with Facom's proprietary convex wall architecture. This design targets the flat sides of a bolt rather than the vulnerable sharp corners, maximizing torque transfer while preventing fastener head rounding.
- Manufacturing Origin: Forged in France during Facom's peak era of premium domestic hand tool manufacturing.
