Draper Expert Locking Wheel Nut Set, 1/2" Sq. Dr. (4 Piece)

Remove stubborn and seized locking wheel nuts quickly and safely with the Draper Expert 4-Piece Locking Wheel Nut Set (LWNS4-B) — a specialist extraction set designed for professional technicians and serious workshop users who need a reliable, purpose-built solution for locking wheel nut removal across a wide range of vehicles.

Designed for Locking Wheel Nut Removal

Locking wheel nuts are designed to resist removal without the correct key — and when that key is lost, damaged, or seized, a standard socket simply won't do the job. The LWNS4-B is engineered specifically for this application, with a reduced tapered internal left-hand coarse thread that bites progressively into the locking nut as torque is applied, gripping tighter the harder it's worked and enabling removal even where conventional extraction methods have failed.

Compatible with most vehicles, with the exception of those fitted with rotating protector shrouds, this set covers the vast majority of passenger cars, SUVs, and light commercial vehicles encountered in a busy workshop environment.

Air and Electric Tool Compatible

These sockets are rated for use with air and electric impact tools, making them a practical choice for high-volume workshop use where speed and efficiency matter. The robust construction handles the rapid, high-torque pulses of impact tooling without risk of failure — ensuring fast, reliable extraction even on heavily corroded or over-torqued locking nuts.

Molybdenum Steel — Hardened, Tempered and Chemically Blackened

Every socket in this set is manufactured from molybdenum steel, then hardened and tempered to withstand the significant forces involved in locking nut extraction. A chemical blackening treatment provides an additional layer of corrosion protection, extending service life in demanding workshop environments where tools are routinely exposed to moisture, brake dust, and penetrating oils.

Four Sizes for Broad Vehicle Coverage

With four socket sizes covering the most commonly encountered locking wheel nut dimensions, this set provides broad compatibility across European, Asian, and domestic vehicle platforms — minimising the need for multiple specialist tools.

Supplied in a Metal Storage Case

The full set is presented in a sturdy metal storage case, keeping all four sockets protected, organised, and readily accessible. The metal construction offers superior durability over plastic alternatives — fitting for a professional-grade extraction tool that earns its place as a workshop staple.
