Castle Nut Socket 1/2in for Suzuki Swingarm Pivot Nut

A castle nut socket for removing and fitting Suzuki swingarm pivot nuts during suspension and chassis work. It uses a 1/2in drive and is made from chrome vanadium steel, giving a solid option for motorcycle maintenance where the correct fitment matters.

Used for workshop servicing, bike repairs and regular maintenance on compatible Suzuki models, this socket suits jobs where a standard socket will not engage with the pivot nut properly. It is useful when working on swingarm removal, bearing service, rear suspension work or frame-related repairs, whether in a home garage or a motorcycle workshop.

The socket is sized specifically for this type of castellated nut, with 43mm external dimensions, 30.5mm internal dimensions and 5mm x 6.3mm lugs. The chrome vanadium steel construction suits repeated workshop use. Fitment is listed for Suzuki SV650 and SV1000, DL650 and DL1000, V-Strom, plus some Hayabusa, B-King and GSX-R750, GSX-R1000 and GSX-R1100 applications. Using the correct socket helps avoid damage to the nut and makes the job more straightforward when carrying out strip-down or reassembly work.
