I need a socket driver with:
- hex 10 mm
- ball end
- extra long hex part, at least 160 mm. or longer
- drive doesn't matter (1/2 or 3/8)

Can't seem to find a brand that sells one. So if anyone has a tip.

I am guessing this is needed for a special job. What you can do is take a long L shaped Allen, cut the short piece off and mate the long piece with a 10mm socket. It should to the job.

Just a thought, maybe make one? :dunno: Quite a few companies make long ball end hex keys, how about just cutting the short end off and placing it in a driver that you already have?

Sorry, it's the only idea I had.

Here is the black version, 221mm, $6

Thanks! That was the back-up idea. But considering the intended use, a ready made - off the shelf unit would be best.

Shop around and you might find better prices, not sure.
