New weighted sockets from Laser Tools

Laser Tools has just introduced a set of three counter-weighted 1/2" drive sockets designed specifically for stubborn and high torque crankshaft pulley fixings. 


The sockets (part number 8953) are engineered for removing extremely tight fixings. The added weight reduces impact loss, allowing more effective torque delivery from impact guns. The high strength and mass make the socket very rigid, meaning less torque from the impact gun is wasted in socket distortion, this torque going straight to the fastener.

The sockets are suitable for a range of vehicles, including Ford, GM, Honda, Jeep, Kia, Lexus, Mazda, and Toyota, and many others. They are also ideal for high-torque applications, particularly high torque crankshaft pulley fixings. The three sizes included are 17mm, 19mm, and 21mm (1/2" drive), with a single-hex (6-point) profile.

Made from durable chrome-molybdenum steel for impact resistance and a long service life, they are supplied in a sturdy blow-mould case that fits neatly in the tool box. They are available now for purchase from your Laser Tools stockist.
