Anyone ever see a SO 3/4 chrome drive reducer?

Wondering if this product ever existed: 3/4 female, 1/2 male, chrome reducer.

looks similar to this: GLAS1F

Yea, has been around for a loooooong time.
is it the tool or the emblem you are concerned about ?

 

[plinker]

I had one (LA62), it had sheared off and was replaced with the newest version (GLAS1F).

There's one on ebay,

Is that a pin lock on the outside of the female end?

 

[hautpot]

yeah most 3/4" hand sockets have it. You push the pin and it pushes the lock on the male square drive.

I can't figure out how that would work. Usually the male square drive has the pin lock and the female square drive has a hole through it.

It pushes the pin on the male to release`it so you can take it off without a screwdriver

It's on all Snap-ons 3/4" and 1" drive chrome sockets, universals and extensions. It's called a "Loxocket"

So then would that mean the male is a pin lock also?

 

[3baygarage]

Yes. It has a pin and ball on the male square though.

"Loxocket"

Yet another concept invented by Blackhawk and regurgitated 80 years later by SO.

Nah, they've been using it for a while. Not really a new feature for Snap-on.
But I follow.

Per AA Snap on started with the "Loxocket" in 1937. They were stamped wit LIC#XXXXXX which was the license from Blackhawk allowing SO to use the "pushbutton" release. I have one of these 3/4 " drive sockets in my toolbox with a 1937 date stamp.

Cool, somewhere I have a 1/2 drive Blackhawk socket with the button. I remember sifting through the box o stuff and thinking I found a Snap-on socket. Then I found out Blackhawk had it first.
