⚙️ How It Works:

The precision 6‑point socket grips the flat sides of the axle nut, preventing round‑off. Hydraulic or hand torque is delivered through the weld‑reinforced ¾" drive plate for reliable tightening or removal. The chamfered entry guides the socket on quickly, while the powder‑coated, high‑tensile steel body withstands repeated high‑torque cycles—ideal for professional trailer and truck maintenance.
