14-Piece Metric Axle Nut Socket Set with 1/2" Drive for Complete Size Coverage

The VEVOR axle nut socket set has 14 metric sizes in two-point configurations: 6-point sizes for 27, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, and 38 mm, and 12-point sizes for 30, 32, 36, and 39 mm. All of these sizes fit on a 1/2-inch drive. That set includes all the metric axle nut sizes common on most European, Asian, and American cars and trucks, so you don't need any extra parts.

Having 14 sizes in a single neat set eliminates the guesswork when switching between vehicles or performing axle work on mixed fleets. There is a 27 mm socket suitable for smaller vehicles and a 39 mm 12-point socket for larger platforms. You won't have to make any last-minute trips to the parts store to get the right one.

CR-V Heat-Treated Steel Builds Impact Resistance Into Every Socket in the Set

The chromium-vanadium (CR-V) steel used to make each socket in this socket set is machined and then heat-treated to make it harder and more durable, allowing it to withstand impact tools for a long time. The treated steel core can withstand the shock loads from air guns and electric impact wrenches repeatedly without cracking at the walls or changing shape at the drive square.

Because it is hard enough to withstand sudden load increases, CR-V steel is widely used in the manufacture of professional hand tools. This is the kind of stress that removing an axle nut puts on a socket. That material toughness is what keeps the socket intact the whole time for anyone using a 1/2-inch impact gun on seized or over-torqued spindle nuts.

6-Point and 12-Point Design Gives This Set Dual Grip Options

This set includes both 6-point and 12-point sockets so that users can choose the right geometry for the job. The six-point sockets make full flat contact with the fastener faces, evenly distributing torque across all six sides. It reduces the risk of rounding corroded or stubborn axle nuts that have been torqued down for years.

The 12-point sockets have more engagement positions per turn, which is helpful in tight spaces where the swing arc is small, and the wrench needs to be moved around more often. A single-axle nut socket set with both configurations means you'll always have the right tool, no matter what the fastener is like, how much space there is around the work area, or how easy it is to reach.

Phosphate Finish on All 14 Sockets Fights Rust in Greasy Workshop Conditions

Every socket in this set has a phosphate surface treatment that protects the steel from moisture, brake fluid, road salt, and the dirt that builds up in any busy garage or workshop. That chemical barrier significantly slows rust formation, so the sockets stay clean and usable even after years of regular use for axle and hub repairs.

The coating also makes cleanup after a greasy job easier because oil and metal particles come off a phosphate-treated surface more easily than they do from bare steel. It's important to keep sockets clean between jobs because dirt around the drive square and socket mouth can make it harder for the tool to fit snugly on a fastener, especially on metric sizes with tight tolerances.

Deep Socket Profile Reaches Axle Nuts Recessed Behind Hubs and Bearings

The deep profile of each socket in this axle nut socket set lets it reach spindle nuts that are set back behind wheel hubs, bearing housings, and brake parts, where shallow sockets can't fully engage. For safe torque transfer, the fastener must be fully seated. A socket that only grips the outer edge of a nut is much more likely to slip or round the fastener under load.

That extra depth is also helpful during installation, when the socket needs to stay on the nut through a full torque sequence without moving or tilting. When the torque spec for an axle nut job is in the hundreds of foot-pounds, that stable deep engagement is what makes the difference between a clean, properly torqued installation and a fastener that gets damaged before the job is done.

Airtight Storage Case Keeps the Set Ready for the Next Job

The case is hard and airtight, with custom-molded slots that hold each of the 14 sockets in their proper place when stored or moved. The sealed closure keeps moisture and workshop dust from getting to the sockets between uses. This is especially important in coastal or high-humidity areas, where tools can rust quickly even when not in use.

The carry handle and small case size make it easy to bring the whole set to a job site or move it between bays without having to dump everything into a general toolbox, where some sockets might get lost or mixed up with other sets. When each socket has a labeled slot, it only takes a few seconds to check that the set is complete before packing it up and moving to the next car.

One Axle Nut Socket Set Covers Cars, Trucks, Vans, SUVs, and Custom Builds

This VEVOR axle nut socket set is strong enough to do maintenance and repairs on all kinds of road vehicles, from small front-wheel-drive imports to big rear-wheel-drive trucks and SUVs. The 14-piece metric range includes the axle nut sizes used by most major manufacturers. This feature makes it a reliable set for general repair shops that work on a wide range of makes and models every day.

The extended size range will also be helpful for custom builders who are swapping out performance axles, upgraded hubs, or aftermarket wheel bearings. This is because modified platforms often use metric spindle nut sizes that aren't included in a standard 5- or 6-piece set. Having the full range of 27 mm to 39 mm on hand means those jobs can move forward without delays caused by missing a critical size.
