Elora Metric Socket Set, 1/2" Sq. Dr. (19 Piece)

The Elora 19-Piece Metric Socket Set, 1/2" Square Drive (770-LINDMU) is a professional-quality heavy-duty socket set engineered for the substantial fastener work that defines serious automotive, commercial vehicle, agricultural, and engineering workshops. Combining a comprehensive range of 14 bi-hexagon metric sockets covering 10mm to 32mm, a high-quality reversible ratchet with Quatrolit® soft-grip handle, two extension bars (125mm and 250mm), a sliding T-bar, and a universal joint, the 770-LINDMU is built to handle the kind of fasteners that demand serious drive size and quality.

Manufactured from chrome vanadium steel — hardened, tempered, and chrome plated — and supplied in a heavy-gauge steel storage case with custom plastic insert, the 770-LINDMU represents the kind of professional-grade tooling that earns its place in serious toolboxes and delivers decades of reliable service.

The 1/2" Drive Standard for Heavy-Duty Work

The 1/2" square drive format is the established standard for heavy-duty fastener work — and the 770-LINDMU is built around this professional benchmark. Where 1/4" and 3/8" drives are designed for precision and intermediate work respectively, 1/2" drive handles the substantial torque levels demanded by:

• Wheel and hub fasteners
• Suspension components
• Engine mountings and structural bolts
• Cylinder head fasteners
• Commercial vehicle fasteners
• Agricultural and plant machinery bolts
• Heavy fabrication and engineering work

For mechanics and engineers handling serious fastener work, 1/2" drive is the natural choice — and the 770-LINDMU delivers it with Elora's signature German-engineered quality.

Built to the Elora Standard

Elora has been manufacturing professional-quality hand tools in Germany since 1924, and the brand is synonymous with the build quality and precision that serious trade users demand. The 770-LINDMU is manufactured to recognised international standards:

• DIN 3120 / ISO 1174 — socket drive square specification
• DIN 3122 / ISO 3315 — hand-operated socket wrench specification
• DIN 3123 / ISO 3316 — extension bar specification
• DIN 3124 / ISO 2725 — universal joint specification

This isn't a set of tools that "looks" professional — it's a set built and certified to the same standards used by professional mechanical industries worldwide.

Chrome Vanadium Steel Construction

The 770-LINDMU is built around chrome vanadium steel — the standard alloy for high-quality hand tools because of its excellent combination of strength, toughness, and durability. Every socket and accessory is:

• Hardened to provide the wear resistance needed for repeated heavy use under high torque
• Tempered to deliver the toughness that prevents brittle failure when the going gets tough
• Chrome plated for outstanding corrosion resistance and a long-lasting professional finish

The result is sockets and accessories that hold their precision over years of professional use, resist the rust and corrosion that quickly degrade lesser tools, and continue to perform like quality kit long after cheaper alternatives have been thrown away and replaced.

Bi-Hexagon Sockets for Real-World Performance

All 14 sockets in the 770-LINDMU are bi-hexagon (12-point) design — and this matters significantly for everyday workshop performance:

• Better access angles — bi-hex sockets engage the fastener at 12 positions, meaning the ratchet only needs to turn 30° (rather than 60°) to find a new engagement position. In confined spaces — engine bays, suspension recesses, behind body panels — this is genuinely transformative
• Easier fitment on damaged fasteners — the 12-point engagement geometry often allows the socket to grip slightly rounded or damaged fastener heads that a 6-point socket would slip on
• Faster work — the ability to start a fastener at any of 12 positions speeds up engagement when working blind or in awkward locations
• Compatibility with both hexagon and 12-point fasteners — bi-hex sockets work equally well on conventional hex fasteners and the 12-point fasteners found on some automotive and engineering applications

Elora's precise manufacturing ensures the bi-hexagon design grips fasteners properly without the slip that lesser 12-point sockets are sometimes accused of. The fit is precise, the engagement is solid, and the performance is reliable.

Reversible Ratchet with Quatrolit® Soft-Grip Handle

The included reversible ratchet delivers the smooth, precise action that's a hallmark of Elora's German engineering. The reversible mechanism allows quick changes between tightening and loosening without removing the socket from the fastener — essential for productive workshop work.

The Quatrolit® soft-grip handle is an Elora signature — providing exceptional grip even with oily, greasy, or wet hands, while remaining comfortable for extended use. For heavy-duty 1/2" drive work, where significant force is regularly applied through the handle, the comfort and grip of the Quatrolit® design are particularly valuable.

Comprehensive Socket Range: 10–32mm

The 770-LINDMU offers a professionally-judged socket range covering 10mm to 32mm — covering the full spread of substantial metric fasteners encountered in everyday automotive, commercial, agricultural, and engineering work:

14 x Bi-Hexagon Metric Sockets: 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 19, 22, 24, 27, 30, 32mm

This range covers the practical core — from the 10–17mm fasteners that dominate engine bay and chassis work, through 19mm and 22mm fasteners commonly found on suspension and driveline components, up to the 24, 27, 30, and 32mm sizes used on wheel nuts, crankshaft pulleys, hubs, and larger structural fasteners. Every socket size is one that earns regular use in serious workshop work.

Comprehensive Accessory Pack

The 770-LINDMU includes a well-judged accessory selection for the access challenges encountered in heavy-duty work:

• Reversible Ratchet with Quatrolit® soft-grip handle for primary driving work
• 125mm Extension Bar for moderate access reach and additional working clearance
• 250mm Extension Bar for deep recessed access — particularly valuable on commercial vehicle, agricultural, and structural work
• Sliding T-Bar for balanced two-handed leverage on tight fasteners and for applications where ratchet access isn't possible
• Universal Joint for accessing fasteners at angles where straight drive can't reach

The combination of two extension bars at different lengths, plus the universal joint, transforms what's accessible. Difficult-to-reach fasteners that would normally require partial disassembly can often be reached and worked using the right combination of accessories.

Heavy-Gauge Steel Storage Case

The 770-LINDMU is supplied in a heavy-gauge steel storage case with a custom plastic insert — a significant step up from the plastic blow-moulded cases used for lesser tool sets. The steel case provides genuine protection during transport and storage, the custom plastic insert keeps every socket and accessory in its dedicated location for easy identification and quick selection, and the overall presentation reflects the quality of the tools inside.

Ideal Applications

The 1/2" drive format and 10–32mm socket range make the 770-LINDMU perfectly suited to serious workshop fastener work:

• Automotive heavy work — wheels, suspension, drivetrain, engine mountings
• Commercial vehicle servicing — van, light truck, and HGV fasteners
• Agricultural machinery servicing — tractor, combine, and equipment maintenance
• Plant equipment maintenance — excavators, loaders, dumpers, and earth-moving machinery
• Heavy engineering and fabrication — structural and machine assembly work
• Marine workshop work — heavy outboard, inboard, and structural fasteners
• Construction equipment maintenance
• Motorcycle work — larger frame and engine fasteners
• General workshop heavy-duty fastener work
• Mobile service operations — comprehensive portable heavy-duty toolkit

A core piece of equipment for independent garages handling serious mechanical work, HGV and commercial vehicle workshops, agricultural service operations, plant maintenance teams, marine workshops, fabricators, and any operation where substantial fasteners are part of daily work.
