KENDO DEEP SOCKET 1/2" 14MM (EBR5003034)
The KENDO Deep Socket 1/2" 14mm (EBR5003034) is a high-quality, professional-grade hand tool designed for automotive, mechanical, and general repair work. KENDO, a brand under SAAME Tools (a Chinese manufacturer specializing in durable hand tools), produces this as part of their metric socket lineup. It's built for tight spaces where standard sockets fall short, allowing deeper access to fasteners like nuts and bolts on engines, suspensions, or machinery. This socket is not impact-rated for high-torque power tools but excels in manual applications with ratchets or extensions.

Features and Benefits
- Deep Design: Extended length reaches recessed or countersunk fasteners, ideal for wheel lugs, cylinder heads, or exhaust work.
- 6-Point Grip: Provides better torque transfer than 12-point sockets, minimizing slip and fastener damage on rusted or seized bolts.
- Durability: Cr-V construction withstands regular use without chipping or deforming; lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects from KENDO.
- Compatibility: Works with any standard 1/2" drive ratchet, breaker bar, or extension. Pair it with KENDO's extension bars (e.g., 125mm or 250mm) for added reach.
