Pro-Tip: To maximize the lifespan of the spring-loaded coaxial design, ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying high-torque impact. Regularly clear the socket interior of metal shavings or debris with compressed air to prevent the spring-loaded mechanism from binding during socket flips.
