Facom R.8GRP Bussola esagonale metrica 1/4" attacco 8mm 6 punte

With a 25 mm overall length and a 12.5 mm outer diameter, the Facom R.8GRP socket is a compact yet robust tool for 8 mm hexagonal fasteners. Its OGV® profile applies force to the flat sides of the nut or bolt head, not the corners, reducing the risk of rounding while allowing higher torque transfer.

Overview

The R.8GRP is a 1/4" square drive, 6-point metric socket from Facom's R series. It is forged from chrome vanadium steel and finished with a high-chrome polish for corrosion resistance. The socket is designed for manual use and complies with ISO 2725-1 and DIN 3124 standards.
