A regular ratchet soon runs out of reach when dealing with longer bolts or threaded bar, even with
a deep socket. To tackle this type of work, Gedore markets a set of special sockets

Recently Gedore presented the new 1/2″ 19 SKU-20 socket set, which includes a ratchet and 13 sockets spanning 10mm to 24mm. The special design is ideal for situations where the threaded end of the bolt sticks out from the nut. The retail on the Gedore website is currently £271 plus VAT, though it is worth shopping around for a keener price.
