Having the right tool for the job not readily available means unnecessary time expenditure, especially in mobile applications. With the 40-piece 1/4" socket and bit set, fastenings can be easily performed with just one hand thanks to the practical belt pouch. The set includes the most common 1/4" hex socket inserts ranging from 4 to 14 mm, various bits, a bit holder, a ratchet wrench, two extensions, a universal joint, and a 1/4" socket adapter, ensuring that the user is well-equipped for installation and assembly tasks.
The ergonomically shaped SoftFinish® screwdriver with a magnetic bit holder guarantees particularly gentle fastening. Thanks to the 1/4" socket adapter, not only the included bits can be used with the SoftFinish® screwdriver, but also the socket inserts, providing the user with a wide range of applications. The included ratchet wrench, in combination with the selection of sockets, offers the necessary flexibility during work.
Additionally, when working with the ratchet wrench, the user benefits from a short return angle due to the fine-toothed mechanism with 72 teeth. The right/left rotation can be adjusted variably using the integrated switch lever. In combination with the included extensions, deeply seated nuts and screws can be easily accessed. The sockets and extensions are mechanically locked, and the change is made by pressing the release button.
Made from high-quality chrome vanadium steel, the socket inserts ensure durability and robustness, not least due to their corrosion-resistant and easy-to-clean surface. The practical pouch can be used cleverly both as a belt pouch and as everyday storage for the set.
