Steeksleutelset ks tools 512.0048, 1/4 inch aandrijving, 12-delig

Compact 12-piece socket set ks tools 512.0048 with a 1/4" drive is designed for light to medium fastening tasks. The set groups commonly used metric socket sizes into a single organized kit, making it practical for automotive maintenance, household repairs and general workshop use. Its 1/4" drive format and compact design allow access in confined spaces and convenient storage in toolboxes, glove compartments or service trolleys.

Advantages

The set offers a balanced selection of sockets that cover frequent repair and maintenance sizes while keeping overall weight and volume low for portability. Durable material and precision fit help reduce rounding of fasteners and ensure secure engagement. The 1/4" drive compatibility with common ratchets and extensions increases versatility. The included storage rail or holder keeps sockets arranged for quick selection and reduces loss during transport.

Suitable for

• Basic and intermediate automotive repairs (interior fittings, small engine components)
• Household maintenance and furniture assembly
• Light workshop tasks and hobby projects
• Field service kits and mobile toolboxes where compactness is required

Key specifications

• Drive size: 1/4" (square drive)
• Number of pieces: 12 (sockets plus holder)
• Socket type: shallow metric sockets (commonly used sizes)
• Material: chrome-finished tool steel for corrosion resistance
• Storage: compact holder/rail for organized transport

How to use

Select the correct socket that matches the fastener size and snap it onto a compatible 1/4" drive ratchet or extension. Place the socket squarely over the nut or bolt head, apply steady torque using the ratchet handle or extension, and turn in the required direction to tighten or loosen. After use, return sockets to their positions on the holder to maintain organization and prevent loss. For work in tight areas, combine the set with low-profile ratchets or flexible extensions designed for 1/4" drives.

Recommendations

Use the correct socket size to avoid rounding fasteners, and avoid applying impact tools to sockets not rated for impact use. Keep the set clean and lightly lubricated where metal contacts metal to prolong service life, and store the kit in a dry place to prevent corrosion.
