Designed for use with compatible 1/4" drive ratchets, extensions and handles, this socket is ideal for workshop, automotive, machinery, appliance, maintenance and DIY applications. The E-socket profile is made to fit external Torx-style bolt heads properly, giving better grip and control than trying to use an incorrect standard socket.

Extra Information

Use an extension where extra reach is needed, but avoid side loading the socket.

Clean dirt, grease or debris from the fastener head before fitting the socket for better engagement.
Seat the E-socket fully before turning to reduce slipping and fastener damage.
Store small E-sockets on a rail or clip so the E8 does not disappear into the toolbox wilderness.

Attach the E-socket to a compatible 1/4" drive ratchet, handle or extension.
Place the socket fully over the external Torx fastener head.
Keep the socket straight and aligned with the fastener.
Turn clockwise to tighten or anti-clockwise to loosen.
Use steady hand pressure and avoid forcing the socket if the fastener is stuck.
Remove the socket after use and store it clean and dry.
