402A-7/16 1/4 In Dr 12-Pt Uniflex Socket - 7/16 In - Stahlwille

The Stahlwille 402A-7/16 Uniflex Socket is engineered for professional technicians and mechanics who require exceptional access and reliable performance in demanding environments. This 1/4 inch drive, 12-point socket features a unique Uniflex swivel design, allowing for flexible articulation to reach fasteners in confined or awkward spaces where traditional sockets cannot. Constructed from Stahlwille's proprietary HPQ® high-performance steel, it delivers superior durability and precise fitment for critical fastening tasks.

Key Features

• Uniflex Swivel Design: Provides enhanced flexibility and articulation, enabling access to fasteners in restricted and hard-to-reach areas.
• HPQ® High-Performance Steel: Manufactured from select tough steel alloys, offering exceptional resilience, high load capacity, and resistance to deformation while maintaining a thin-walled profile for improved access.
• 12-Point AS-Drive Profile: Designed to apply force to the flanks of the fastener, minimizing the risk of rounding off nuts and bolts and ensuring optimal torque transfer.
• Chrome Plated Finish: Provides robust corrosion resistance and a durable, easy-to-clean surface, contributing to a longer tool life.
• Professional Grade: Meets stringent SAE AS 954-E and ASME B 107.1 standards, reflecting its quality construction suitable for professional use.
• Cadmium-Free Construction: Suitable for use on titanium alloy parts and fasteners, particularly in sensitive applications like the aerospace industry.

Applications

This Stahlwille 402A-7/16 Uniflex Socket is an essential tool for a wide range of automotive and industrial applications. Its swivel capability makes it ideal for engine bays, chassis work, and machinery maintenance where fasteners are often obstructed or at challenging angles. The 7/16 inch 12-point design is versatile for various SAE fasteners found in vehicle components, industrial equipment, and assembly operations. It is particularly beneficial for routine maintenance and complex repairs in areas close to housings, covers, or adjacent components where a standard socket lacks the necessary maneuverability.
