Tork Craft Socket Bit 1/2' Drive Spline M12 S2 Material
At a Glance: 1/2' drive spline M12 socket bit in S2 steel for secure engagement and high-torque fastening.
The Tork Craft TC97012 spline socket bit is designed for driving M12 spline (triple square style) fasteners using a 1/2' drive ratchet, breaker bar or torque tool—built for heavy-duty fastening jobs where strong engagement is essential. M12 spline fasteners are common in automotive and mechanical assemblies because the multi-point profile delivers excellent torque transfer when fully seated, helping reduce slipping and fastener damage on high-load connections. Manufactured from durable S2 steel for strength and wear resistance, this socket bit is made to keep a crisp profile under load, making it a reliable choice for tightening correctly and removing stubborn spline fasteners with control.
A 1/2' drive spline socket bit with an M12 profile, designed to deliver secure engagement and controlled torque on spline-style fasteners in workshop and mechanical maintenance tasks.
Extra Information
- Clean the fastener head before use—dirt and corrosion can prevent full seating and cause damage.
- Ensure the bit is fully inserted and kept square to the fastener before applying torque.
- Use a breaker bar to crack tight fasteners loose, then switch to a ratchet for quicker removal.
Pro Tip
- On M12 spline fasteners, push in firmly and keep the tool perfectly straight—misalignment is the fastest route to a damaged head and a bad day.
Features
- Spline M12 drive profile Designed to fit M12 spline (multi-point) fasteners accurately.
- 1/2' drive socket format Compatible with common 1/2' drive ratchets, breaker bars and torque tools.
- S2 steel construction Tough material selected for strength and wear resistance.
- Built for higher torque Suitable for demanding fastening and removal work where secure engagement matters.
Benefits
- Stronger engagement: Spline profile provides a positive drive feel when properly seated.
- Reduced stripping risk: Accurate fit helps protect fastener heads under high load.
- Longer service life: S2 steel helps resist wear and deformation over repeated use.
- Better control on stubborn fasteners: 1/2' drive allows steady, controlled torque application.
Safety
- Wear eye protection when applying high torque, especially around rusted or tight fasteners.
- Ensure the bit is fully seated and square before turning to prevent slipping.
- Apply force smoothly—avoid sudden jerks that can cause loss of control and injury.
- Do not use worn or damaged bits; replace to maintain secure engagement.
- Keep hands clear of pinch points when using breaker bars, ratchets and extensions.
