9-Piece Injector & Sensor Line Socket Set – 10–22mm Open-Side Cr-V Sockets, 3/8' & 1/2' Drive
When a Normal Socket Can't Get Past the Line, This One Can.
Fuel lines, injector pipes, sensor wires and bent tubing can block a conventional closed socket before it ever reaches the fastener. These open-side line sockets are designed to slip around the obstruction while still wrapping around the nut for a more secure hold.
A Regular Socket Is Useless If the Line Won't Let It Reach the Nut
Injector lines, fuel connections and wired sensors often have tubing or cables running directly out of the fitting. A standard closed socket can't slide over them. That leaves you trying to work in a cramped engine bay with an open-end wrench and limited swing room.
A pipe, hose or sensor lead physically blocks the socket opening.
Tight engine compartments can leave very little room to reposition an open-end wrench.
Poor contact can increase the chance of slipping or damaging fastener corners.
Slip Around the Pipe or Wire — Then Seat the Socket on the Fastener
The longitudinal opening gives the connected pipe, fuel line or sensor lead somewhere to go. Instead of forcing the entire assembly through the end of the socket, you approach from the side.
Position the socket slot with the line or wire attached to the fitting.
The side opening allows the socket body to move past the obstruction.
Engage the correct-size socket before applying controlled torque.
Get Socket-Style Contact Without Trapping the Line Inside
The cutaway design leaves room for the attached line while retaining more of the surrounding socket body. On correctly sized compatible fasteners, that can provide a more controlled fit than trying to attack the nut from only two sides with a basic open wrench.
The socket body surrounds more of the fitting while leaving the access slot open.
Choose the matching socket instead of forcing a loose-fitting tool.
Use the appropriate 3/8-inch or 1/2-inch drive tool for improved access.
Two Drive Sizes Cover Small Lines Through Larger Sensor Fittings
The set combines five smaller 3/8-inch drive sockets with four larger 1/2-inch drive sockets, giving you a useful spread for different automotive line and sensor applications.
10mm • 11mm • 12mm • 13mm • 14mm
17mm • 19mm • 21mm • 22mm
10–14mm range for compatible smaller line fasteners.
17mm and 19mm add coverage for larger automotive fittings.
21mm and 22mm cover larger compatible sensor-style fittings.
Injector Lines, Fuel Fittings, EGT Sensors, Thermo Switches & Bent Pipes
The open-side format is most useful where a conventional socket is blocked by attached tubing, wiring or another component.
Access compatible fittings without requiring the line to pass through a closed socket.
Useful around compatible fuel-line nuts and connection points.
The side slot can provide clearance for attached sensor wiring.
Helpful where tube geometry prevents a normal socket from sliding straight over the fitting.
Chrome-Vanadium Steel Construction for Repeated Tool Use
According to the supplied product information, the sockets are made from chrome-vanadium steel. The metallic construction is intended for automotive maintenance applications where a stable, properly sized tool matters.
The supplied listing identifies Cr-V as the socket material.
Designed for compatible automotive fitting and sensor service.
Keep multiple specialty sizes together instead of buying them one at a time.
What DIY Mechanics Care About Most
“I bought these after realizing my normal deep sockets were useless because the injector line came straight out of the fitting. The side opening is exactly what I needed. I could get the socket around the line instead of fighting it with an open-end wrench in almost no space.”
— Mark T.“The frustrating part wasn't that the nut was stuck — it was that I couldn't get a regular socket onto it. I was starting to round the corners with a wrench. Using the correct size from this set gave me a much more solid feel and finally let me work on the fitting without slipping around it.”
— David R.“I originally needed one size for a sensor, but I'm glad I bought the set. I've already used another socket on a fuel-line connection where the pipe made a normal socket impossible. It's one of those specialty tools you don't think you need until nothing else fits.”
— Brian C.9-Piece Injector & Sensor Line Socket Set
When the Pipe Blocks a Normal Socket, Go Around the Pipe.
Nine metric sizes. Two common drive formats. Side-open access for lines and sensor leads. Cr-V construction. One specialty set built for the exact automotive jobs where an ordinary socket simply can't reach the fastener.
