Whitworth Socket Set 3/16in-5/8in 1/2in Drive 8pc Cr-V

A Whitworth socket set for working on British Standard Whitworth fasteners, covering sizes from 3/16in to 5/8in with a 1/2in drive. Made from chrome vanadium steel, these sockets are supplied on a rail to keep the set together and easy to store.

Used for classic vehicle work, older machinery, restoration jobs and general mechanical repairs where Whitworth fixings are still found. A set like this is handy for garage work, workshop use and home servicing when standard metric or AF sockets are not the right fit, especially on older British cars, motorcycles and equipment.

The included size range covers common BSW fasteners, helping reduce the need to search separately for individual sockets when maintenance jobs come up. Chrome vanadium construction gives the set the strength needed for repeated use, while the polished finish is easier to wipe clean after workshop use. The 1/2in drive size makes the sockets compatible with many common ratchets and extensions, which is useful when extra reach or leverage is needed. Keeping the sockets on the supplied rail also helps with storage and makes it easier to see quickly if a size is missing after a job.
