Proxxon 23631 3/8" VZ 8 50mm Spline Socket bit 

The Proxxon 23631 3/8" spline socket bit VZ 8, 50 mm length is a specialist tool engineered for use with XZN, or triple square, head bolts, which are frequently encountered in various European automotive applications.

This socket bit is characterized by its precise specifications: a 3/8" square drive for compatibility with standard ratchets and drive tools, a VZ 8 spline size, and an overall length of 50 mm.

Crafted for durability and high performance, the tool features a two-part material construction. The bit component is forged from a high-alloy chrome-silicon-manganese-molybdenum steel, chosen for its exceptional wear resistance and ability to withstand high torsional forces. The socket base, which connects to the drive tool, is made from robust chrome vanadium steel.

To ensure longevity and rust resistance, the socket is finished with optimum surface protection, involving double nickel-plating followed by a single matt-finished chrome-plating. The design adheres to and surpasses DIN/ISO standards for hardness and maximum torque capacity, guaranteeing reliability in demanding tasks. Proxxon's engineering approach ensures that the driving force is distributed along the flanks of the bolt head rather than the corners, a design feature that allows for efficient power transmission while minimizing the risk of rounding or damaging the bolt head.
