Groove Nut Socket Locating Tube 60-67mm 140mm with Fixing Screw

A locating tube for groove nut sockets, used to help keep the socket seated more securely while you work. It forms part of a simple connector arrangement with a fixing screw, giving the socket a steadier position during fitting or removal.

Used for general mechanical work, this type of tube is helpful when working with groove nut sockets where movement or poor seating can make the job slower and more awkward. It suits workshop use, servicing and maintenance jobs where a more controlled hold is useful, especially when dealing with larger groove socket nuts and repeated socket changes between tasks.

Adjustment is straightforward, with changeover carried out by loosening the grub screw on the hexagon, making repositioning or swapping simpler when needed. The supplied size is 60mm inner diameter, 67mm outer diameter and 140mm in length, so buyers can check suitability against their existing setup before ordering. The design is intended to support a firmer working position and help reduce the chance of the socket slipping in use, which is useful for regular maintenance where steady tool engagement matters. For workshop storage, it is also a straightforward separate component to keep alongside compatible groove nut sockets so it is ready when needed.
