Product Overview
The US PRO Tools 3688 is a professional-grade, heavy-duty 9-piece 1/2-inch drive deep impact socket set engineered specifically for high-torque removal and installation of stubborn axle and hub nuts. Featuring multi-point 12-point geometry and an extra-deep profile, this master set is built to tackle high-torque central hub fasteners on modern passenger cars, light commercial vehicles, and 4x4s without rounding or slipping under pneumatic or cordless impact loads.
Key Features & Specifications
-
Specialized 12-Point Socket Geometry: Multi-point internal design provides twice the engagement positions of standard 6-point sockets, making it ideal for multi-point staked axle nuts and restricted clearance hubs.
-
Comprehensive Axle Size Range: Includes 9 dedicated deep sockets spanning 29mm to 38mm, covering major European, Asian, and domestic vehicle hub nut standards.
-
Extra-Deep Barrel Profile: Extended length easily clears long protruding stub axles, CV joint threads, and deep-set hub configurations.
-
Industrial Chrome Molybdenum (Cr-Mo) Steel: Forged from high-strength alloy steel, heat-treated for superior shock absorption under extreme impact, and finished with a black phosphate corrosion-resistant coating.
-
High-Visibility Size Markings: Permanently laser-etched and stamped size indicators on every socket allow for instant identification in busy service bays.
Core Workshop & Automotive Applications

Axle Nut & Wheel Bearing Servicing: Removing high-torque central hub nuts when replacing wheel bearings, front/rear axle shafts, or CV joints.
