Instructions For Identifying and Ordering Replacement Sockets

Socket numbers have six digits and the possibility of several suffixes. The first four digits are identical to the four digits of the attachment numbers, and therefore do not need to be repeated when ordering complete attachments. Only the last two digits are required when ordering an attachment, but all six are needed if ordering an individual socket replacement part. These digits indicate a specific hex size, regardless of side plate width or attachment thickness. Even numbers are always single hex, and odd numbers are always double hex. 

Example Numbering:

  • 161816 = 1” wide side plates, 9/16” thick, 1/2” single hex
  • 201516 = 1-1/4” side plates, 15/32” thick, 1/2” single hex

Socket Suffix List:

  • ER - Extended Right Hand – (Indicate Length in 16ths)
  • EL - Extended Left Land – (Indicate Length in 16ths)
  • EB - Extended Both Sides – (Indicate Length in 16ths)
  • MS - Magnetic Solid (Indicate Hex Depth)
  • HM - Magnetic Hollow (Indicate Hex Depth and Thru Hole)
  • BH -  Blind Hex (Hex Part Way Thru)
  • T – Threaded (Indicate Thread Size)
  • G – Grooved
  • SS – Single Square
  • DS – Double Square

Full Example Order:

161315-EB 8 = 1” wide side plates, 13/32” thick, 7/16” double hex, extended both sides 1/2"
