Removing spark plugs without risk of damage to the ceramic insulator demands a tool built specifically for the task. The Draper Expert 12mm Thread Spark Plug Socket addresses this with a rubber insert that both protects the plug during removal and retains it securely within the socket body, preventing it from falling into awkward recesses in the cylinder head. The socket is constructed from chrome vanadium steel, hardened and tempered for durability under repeated torque loading, and finished with a polished chrome plate. The 6-point profile provides positive engagement with the plug hex, reducing the risk of rounding. A knurled ring on the socket body offers extra grip when the socket needs to be handled directly during positioning. The socket measures 65mm in length — a deep profile suited to recessed spark plug locations common in modern engines — and accepts a 1/2-inch square drive. It is designed for 12mm thread spark plugs and takes an 18mm hex size. Supplied as a single socket, it is part of the Expert Quality range from Draper.
Expert Quality, 6 point deep socket with a rubber insert for plug protection and retention. Manufactured from chrome vanadium steel hardened and tempered with a polished finish. Socket length 65mm. Each socket has a knurled ring for extra grip.
