Locking Mechanism

Parts and Assembly

The locking extension’s mechanism allows sockets to be positively retained, but also makes it slightly less strong than a regular extension.

Maximum Torque

The locking extensions are made from 6140 chromium-vanadium steel with a 8660 nickel-chromium-molybdenum collar, and are chrome-plated for corrosion resistance.

Strong 6140 and 8660 Steel

*The 3 inch locking extensions are too short to include shaft knurling.

Deep knurling provides grip for turning fasteners, and grooves provide grip for attaching and removing sockets and accessories.
