This product is a 14 mm deep socket with a 1/2-inch (12.7 mm) square drive, designed to reach recessed or long-stem nuts and bolts that standard shallow sockets cannot. Its primary use is to provide secure engagement with hexagonal fasteners where extra depth is needed, making it suitable for workshop and field service work where access is restricted or studs protrude beyond the nut.

The socket is constructed from chrome vanadium (Cr‑V) steel and is heat treated to provide the torsional strength and toughness required for repeated use with hand tools. The external finish is mirror chrome plating to aid corrosion resistance and ease of cleaning. The internal profile is a six‑point (6‑point) hexagon, matching metric fastener geometry and helping to reduce rounding of fastener corners under load. The socket accepts a 1/2" square drive from ratchets, torque wrenches and breaker bars and features the standard detent recess for secure retention on spring balls or retaining pins.

Manufactured to common workshop dimensional standards and compatible with DIN/ISO metric socket profiles, this 14 mm deep socket is suitable for applications that demand accurate fit and dependable torque transfer. Typical industries and applications include automotive repair and service, commercial vehicle maintenance, plant and machinery upkeep, agricultural equipment servicing and general mechanical engineering. The extra depth makes it particularly useful for wheel hub work, suspension components, plumbing fittings and any assembly where fasteners sit on extended studs.

Key benefits include good corrosion resistance from the chrome finish, material strength from Cr‑V heat treatment, and the compatibility of a 1/2" drive with widely used ratchets and torque tools. The 6‑point profile offers improved contact with the fastener faces to reduce cam‑out and preserve joint integrity under higher torque compared with 12‑point alternatives.

Duchy Fasteners holds this 14 mm deep socket (Draper Tools Group D reference DR27086) in bulk and single-piece supply. We also stock a wide range of metric deep sockets, extension bars and complementary drive accessories in various sizes and pack quantities to suit workshops and trade users.
