T Bar Socket Wrench 17mm Universal Joint Sliding Handle

A 17mm T bar socket wrench built for reaching and turning fixings where a standard spanner or short socket tool can be awkward to use. Made from chrome vanadium steel, it combines a fixed 17mm socket end with a sliding T-handle and universal joint for better access in tighter spaces.

Used for vehicle maintenance, garage work and general repair jobs, this type of T handle socket wrench suits situations where nuts or bolts sit behind pipework, brackets or other obstructions. The long 400mm reach helps when working down into engine bays, around suspension areas or in confined workshop spaces, while the sliding handle gives you flexibility in how you position your grip during loosening and tightening.

The universal joint allows the socket end to work at an angle, which is useful when a fixing is not directly in line with the handle. A sliding T-bar layout also helps you adjust leverage and hand position to suit the job, whether you need a centred grip or extra reach to one side. The 17mm size makes it relevant for common fastening tasks on vehicles and machinery where that socket size is required. Chrome vanadium steel construction makes it a sensible choice for repeated workshop use, especially when you want a single tool ready for awkward access jobs without constantly swapping setup.
