Facom 1/2" Drive Non Sparking Bi Hexagon Socket Imperial

The Facom S.SR 1/2" socket in 5/8" size is perfectly suited for medium-duty fastening applications where safety and reliability are paramount. This 12-point imperial socket is commonly required for automotive suspension components, industrial machinery, and hydraulic system assemblies in hazardous locations. The Copper-Beryllium alloy construction delivers critical non-sparking performance, making this socket essential for refineries, chemical plants, grain elevators, and any environment where flammable gases, vapours, or dust may be present. Combined with anti-magnetic properties, it ensures safe operation around sensitive measuring instruments and electronic control systems. The 5/8" size is one of the most frequently specified dimensions in both maintenance and assembly operations. The 12-point bi-hexagonal internal profile reduces the swing arc needed to engage fasteners, particularly beneficial when working in tight quarters or around obstructions. This design also distributes force more evenly, reducing wear on both socket and fastener. Features and Benefits: • Non-sparking alloy prevents ignition in explosive atmospheres • Anti-magnetic properties ensure compatibility with sensitive equipment • Bi-hexagonal design improves access and reduces fastener damage • Robust construction delivers professional durability Specifications Drive: 1/2" square Size: 5/8"
