Description
The Kincrome K28051 is a 50 piece 1/4 inch drive socket set that covers both metric and imperial fasteners, with a reversible ratchet, extension bars and a generous bit selection, all kept together in one carry case. It suits tradespeople, workshop users and keen DIYers who want a compact, well-organised kit for small fasteners and tight spots.
About the product
The sockets are made from chrome vanadium steel (Cr-V). They are hardened and tempered for strength, then chrome plated and polished to help resist corrosion. The 72 tooth reversible ratchet gives a fine swing arc for working in confined areas, and the set pairs it with a spinner handle for quickly running fasteners down by hand. Metric sockets run from 4mm to 13mm, and the imperial sockets run from 7/32 to 1/2 inch.
What is in the set
- 10 x 1/4" drive metric sockets: 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 and 13mm
- 7 x 1/4" drive imperial sockets: 7/32, 1/4, 9/32, 5/16, 3/8, 7/16 and 1/2"
- 2 x 1/4" drive extension bars: 50mm and 150mm
- 1 x 1/4" drive reversible ratchet
- 1 x 1/4" drive spinner handle
- 1 x 1/4" coupler holder
- 1 x 1/4" universal joint
- 3 x 9 piece screwdriver bit sets (Phillips, hex and blade), 27 bits in total
Where to use it
Workshop and garage: servicing vehicles, motorbikes and small engines, and general mechanical repairs.
Around the home and on site: assembling or adjusting appliances, furniture, equipment and fittings that use small metric or imperial fasteners.
How to use it
Choose the socket that fits the fastener snugly, push it onto the 1/4 inch drive of the ratchet and flip the reversing switch to tighten or loosen. Add an extension bar to reach recessed fasteners, or the universal joint when you need to work at an angle. Use the spinner handle to run fasteners in or out quickly, and the coupler holder to fit 1/4 inch hex shank bits to the ratchet or handle. After use, return each piece to its place in the case so the set stays organised and easy to carry.
Important notes
This is a 1/4 inch drive set intended for light to medium duty fastening. It is not designed for high-torque jobs such as large wheel nuts or seized fasteners, and it is not an impact tool set. Do not use a cheater bar or hammer on the ratchet.
