Siegen 3/8" Drive Hexagon WallDrive Socket Metric – S0584

The Siegen 3/8" Drive 17mm Hexagon WallDrive Socket is one of the most frequently used sizes for automotive wheel work, making it an essential tool for anyone performing tyre changes, brake servicing, or wheel-related maintenance. The 17mm dimension is the standard size for many vehicle wheel nuts and bolts, particularly on passenger cars and light commercial vehicles, making this socket indispensable in both professional and home workshops. Constructed from Chrome Vanadium steel, this socket delivers the strength and durability needed for regular, demanding use. The material undergoes hardening and tempering to enhance its mechanical properties, ensuring it can handle the high torque requirements of wheel fasteners without deforming or failing. The chrome plated, mirror finish provides a professional appearance whilst offering excellent corrosion resistance, important for a socket that's frequently used in roadside and outdoor situations. The WallDrive® socket configuration is particularly beneficial for 17mm wheel applications, as it grips fasteners on their flat sides rather than corners. This reduces wear on both the socket and wheel nuts, and provides superior grip even on slightly rounded or corroded fasteners. This design also allows for better torque distribution, making both loosening and tightening operations more effective. Backed by a lifetime guarantee.
