A socket set is used to tighten and loosen nuts and bolts. It's commonly used for vehicle maintenance, bicycle repairs, home improvements and general DIY tasks.
How do you use a socket set?
Choose the socket that fits the nut or bolt you're working on, attach it to the handle and turn. Using the correct size helps make the job easier and can reduce the risk of damaging fixings.
How do you clean a socket set?
Wipe your tools clean after use to remove dirt, grease and moisture. If they’re very dirty, wash with warm soapy water and dry thoroughly before storing to help keep them in good condition.
How much does a socket set cost?

How do I choose the right socket set?
