Flip Sockets

[tonyprovo723]

Who if anyone makes or sells these in sizes other than for lug nuts?

Seems these could be handy use with a hex impact driver.

Thanks for any ideas.

Snap-on has a metric set 8-15, one size advertised as being handy for skidplate /aero shield removal. Black but not impact. I didn't use mine enough to keep, and sold them.

There is another useful one for TPMSensors which Sunex and others make, 11 & 12mm

Thanks for the assistance guys, I'm actually looking for SAE for use in construction. Sounds like I should not hold my breath for these. I would of thought these would have more of an application, and automotive work would be the last to come to mind. Different trades with different tools is always interesting. Anyways, looks to be a spring project for some odds sockets and a welder.

Whenever I have searched, I have found nothing SAE except lug nut sizes, and 1/4"-5/16" (Malco is one) which is hex drive.

Tekton makes a decent looking set

I have that set and use them for lug nuts, but they can be used for other things as well. I think I paid $15 for my set.

Any chance that you're still selling these?

Never used one, but I always thought a 14mm x 9/16" would be perfect for bicycle work.

I was going to buy either snappys or sks but I just put a bunch of spare impacts in my truck box.
