Description

The Wera 8790 HMC 17mm deep socket with 1/2" drive and 83mm length is an essential size for working with larger metric fasteners in automotive, heavy machinery and industrial applications. This socket dimension is frequently found in wheel assemblies, drivetrain components and structural fixings requiring substantial torque. With its 83mm deep profile, this socket excels at reaching recessed fasteners and working in situations where bolts are deeply set or where threaded rods extend beyond the nut face. The hexagonal profile ensures complete six-point engagement with bolt heads, maximising the contact area to enable high torque application whilst minimising the risk of rounding off fastener edges. The ball intercept ring provides secure retention on your ratchet or drive tool throughout manual and machine operation (non-impact), preventing accidental detachment when working in awkward positions. Knurling at the lower end delivers reliable grip even when your hands are contaminated with oil or grease, whilst the Take it easy colour coding system enables quick identification of this 17mm size. Features and Benefits: • Extended 83mm depth for accessing deeply recessed fasteners • Hexagonal design for optimal torque transmission and fastener protection • Ball intercept ring for secure socket retention during use • Knurled section provides confident grip in challenging conditions • Colour-coded for instant recognition Contents: • 8790 HMC Deep socket with 1/2" drive, 17 x 83 mm
