Fixman 1/2" Drive Hex Allen Bit Socket H6 6 x 100mm
At a Glance: H6 6mm hex bit socket with a 100mm long-reach profile and 1/2" square drive for recessed internal hex fasteners
The Fixman FIX J1001 1/2" drive hex bit socket is designed for tightening and loosening compatible 6mm internal hex fasteners. Its H6 Allen-style profile fits suitable hex socket screws, while the extended 100mm bit length provides additional reach for fasteners positioned inside recesses, machinery, components and assemblies. The 1/2" square drive allows the bit socket to be used with compatible ratchets, handles, extensions and torque wrenches.
The extended 100mm hex bit helps reach fasteners that are positioned below surrounding components or inside narrow recesses. Combined with a 1/2" square drive connection, it provides a practical solution for automotive, machinery, equipment, maintenance and assembly applications.
