Camshaft Pulley Socket T100 Star Bit 1/2in for Mercedes

A camshaft pulley socket made for Mercedes Benz engine timing work where a T100 star bit is required. This tamperproof socket has a 1/2in drive and 78mm length, giving the reach needed when correcting the position on the camshaft pulley.

Used for engine servicing and timing-related repair work, this tool suits garage, workshop and specialist vehicle maintenance jobs on selected Mercedes engines. It is intended for jobs where access to the camshaft pulley fixing is needed with the correct T100 Torx profile, helping avoid damage that can come from using the wrong bit or an ill-fitting substitute.

Built from chrome molybdenum steel, it is suited to regular workshop use where strength matters during repeated fastening and loosening. The 1/2in square drive makes it compatible with common ratchets, breaker bars and torque tools already used in automotive servicing. Its 78mm overall length gives useful access in tighter engine bay areas without being overlong and awkward to handle. Applicable engine codes listed are M133, M157, M270, M271, M276 and M278, so it is worth checking the engine before ordering. For Mercedes timing and camshaft work, having the proper socket close to hand helps keep the job straightforward.
