1/2” Apex Brand Spline Socket Description

Apex 1/2” square drive sockets for spline fasteners, long length. Spline sockets on spline fasteners help deliver twice the torque of 12 point wrenches on double hex fasteners, helping tighten high strength bolts to high torque loads. Spline helps reduce foreign object debris (FOD) by forcing a precise fit between the fastening tool and the fastener. Sockets from Apex Fastener Tools, formally Cooper Tools, have hex tolerances that are on average 48% tighter than DIN and 35% tighter than ANSI requirements. Apex impact sockets provide an exact, sure fit every time. Impact sockets from Apex Fastener Tools provide the tightest tolerances for straightness and concentricity available.

High strength fasteners in the aviation industry or high performance automotive field often require the use of an impact wrench or impact driver to deliver the amount of torque required to tighten or loosen them.

Sockets from Apex Fastener Tools are designed and manufactured for high impact use. Apex sockets are made from stronger alloy steel than the average impact socket.
