1/2 In Drive 6-Pt Metric Socket - 29mm - SK Hand Tool

Part #: 48229

The SK Hand Tool 48229 1/2-inch drive 29mm 6-point metric socket is an essential tool engineered for professional technicians and mechanics requiring precision and robust performance in demanding automotive and industrial applications. This socket provides a direct, accurate fit for 29mm metric fasteners, eliminating the guesswork often associated with finding "29mm to SAE" or "29mm in SAE" equivalents. Crafted from high-strength alloy steel, it is built to ensure reliable fastener engagement and an extended lifespan in professional environments.

Key Features

  • Secure 6-Point SureGrip® Design: SK's innovative SureGrip® drive design engages the flats of a fastener rather than its corners. This minimizes the risk of rounding, preserves fastener integrity, and enhances grip, even on rusted or damaged hardware, enabling high torque application.
  • High-Strength Alloy Steel Construction: Cold forged from robust, high-alloy US steel, this socket delivers maximum strength and durability, designed to withstand the rigors of professional use.
  • SuperKrome® Corrosion-Resistant Finish: Featuring SuperKrome® Plating, this tough, high-polish finish provides exceptional resistance against rust and corrosion, contributing to a longer tool lifespan and maintaining a professional appearance.
  • Professional Standards Compliance: This socket meets or exceeds ASME B107.110-2012 standards, guaranteeing professional-grade quality and performance for critical applications.
