A sleeve is a cylindrical tool used for disassembling nuts or bolts, with a hexagonal cross-section on its inner surface.
A sleeve is a cylindrical tool used for disassembling nuts or bolts, with a hexagonal cross-section on its inner surface. The specifications of sleeves are divided into imperial and metric systems. The sleeves of the British standard are gradually increasing in 1:16 inches and 1:32 inches; The sleeves of metric specifications increase by 1 centimeter at a time. For car owners, a socket is needed when disassembling or assembling tires or spark plugs.
When using a sleeve, it is important to avoid selecting a sleeve that fits perfectly with the nut or bolt. If a sleeve larger than the nut or bolt is used, it can easily round the head of the nut or bolt during rotation. When disassembling tight wheel bolts, if a suitable extension rod is fitted onto the socket handle, it can increase the rotational torque and make it easier to loosen the wheel bolts. It should be noted that when tightening the wheel bolts, if using a socket handle extension rod, do not apply too much force to prevent the rotational torque from exceeding the bearing range of the nut or bolt, otherwise it is easy to damage the nut or bolt.
