Laser Tools 8213 Double Ended Damaged Wheel Nut Socket 16.5x17.5mm

Some wheel nuts are manufactured with a permanently fitted chromium plated cap. These start off from the factory as a whole size, but over time due to the combination of corrosion and impact tool use, the wheel nuts can swell by up to 0.5mm. This double ended impact socket has one end machined to 16.5mm and the other to 17.5mm to overcome this issue. Laser Tools is our premier automotive brand that offers a full range of traditional high quality hand tools and also an increasing range of special tools designed to make easy work of difficult and awkward jobs. These tools are the result of feedback from the sharp end of the automotive industry — the actual technicians working on today’s motor cars.
