When working on high-end, show-quality classic vehicles or automotive displays, the fit and finish of the fasteners is just as important as the paint and bodywork. For example, chrome-plated fasteners can be damaged easily, especially when using standard metal spanners and sockets. That’s why Laser Tools has introduced this specialist non-marring imperial (AF) Socket/Wrench Insert Set (part number 8468).

With top-class classic or show vehicles, fasteners can be plated, anodised, chemically passivated or even painted. Lots of care and attention has been put into building and preparing these vehicles, so extra care and attention is also required when working on them. When you need to use a socket, reach for the socket inserts set. Four imperial-sized inserts are included, choose the correctly-sized insert and slot it into the corresponding socket: 3/8″ to fit 1/2″ socket, 7/16″ to fit 9/16″ socket, 1/2″ to fit 5/8″ socket, and 9/16″ to fit 11/16″ socket. Can also be used with ring spanners.

These are tough and robust inserts, made from a PA6 nylon and glass fibre composite for long-lasting durability. Supplied with a snap-together metal ring to keep them tidy

The imperial (AF) sizing makes them ideal for classic cars and motorcycles. A metric version is also available, part number 7463. These innovative and invaluable insert sets are available to purchase from your Laser Tools stockist and online retailers.
