Ken-Tool has announced the introduction of a series of sockets designed for removal and installation of axle nuts for the most common truck axle retainer nuts in today’s market.
The axle nut sockets (pictured above) are made in the U.S.A. and cold pressed from high quality, tool-grade steel, assuring a long service life, and each socket is black e-coated to protect it from corrosion, the company said.
