Drive Shaft Bolt Socket M12 800mm Extra Long 1/2in Drive

A drive shaft bolt socket for reaching recessed or awkward fasteners on Audi and VW vehicles, with an extra-long 800mm overall length and M12 spline bit end. Built with an S2 steel bit and chrome vanadium socket section, it is made for 1/2in drive use on VAG drive shaft bolts.

Used for vehicle maintenance, hub work and drivetrain jobs where the bolt sits deep in the assembly or access is limited by surrounding parts. Useful in garage servicing, workshop repair work and home mechanics tackling Audi or VW drive shaft bolt removal and refitting without needing to improvise with extensions or unsuitable bits.

The long reach is the main advantage here, helping you get onto fasteners that are difficult to access with a standard spline bit socket. The M12 spline profile suits the stated VAG application, while the 1/2in drive fit makes it straightforward to use with common ratchets, breaker bars or torque tools that match the drive size. The S2 steel bit section is suited to repeated fastening work, and the chrome vanadium socket end gives a solid connection at the drive side. For regular servicing and drivetrain work, having the correct long socket close to hand helps avoid swapping between multiple pieces to reach the bolt safely.
