These nuts feature slots around their circumference, which means a standard socket or spanner cannot be used without risking damage to the nut or shaft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1073\" data-start=\"744\"\u003eKM sockets are purpose-built tools that engage directly with the nut’s slots, providing a positive drive connection that distributes torque evenly. This prevents slippage, rounding, or distortion - common issues when improvised tools are used - and helps maintain the integrity of both the locknut and the component it secures.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1210\" data-start=\"1075\"\u003eThis set covers \u003cstrong\u003eKM sizes 4 to 7 \u003c\/strong\u003eand comes with extension pieces to allow easy access to deep seated lock nuts, providing compatibility with a wide range of industrial and automotive applications, including:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1231\" data-start=\"1213\"\u003eBearing housings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1254\" data-start=\"1234\"\u003eGearbox assemblies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1282\" data-start=\"1257\"\u003eShaft-mounted equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"1311\" data-start=\"1292\"\u003e½″ Square Drive\u003c\/strong\u003e – Works with standard ratchets and torque wrenches for easy, controlled tightening or loosening.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-end=\"1788\" data-start=\"1768\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"1788\" data-start=\"1772\"\u003eKit Contents\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1804\" data-start=\"1791\"\u003eKM-4 Socket \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sykes-pickavant.com\/products\/696800-km4-km4-socket?_pos=2\u0026amp;_psq=696800-\u0026amp;_ss=e\u0026amp;_v=1.0\"\u003e696800-KM4\u003c\/a\u003e \u0026amp; Extension Tube \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sykes-pickavant.com\/products\/696800-km4ext-km4-extension-tube?_pos=1\u0026amp;_psq=km4e\u0026amp;_ss=e\u0026amp;_v=1.0\"\u003e696800-KM4EXT\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1820\" data-start=\"1807\"\u003eKM-5 Socket \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sykes-pickavant.com\/products\/696800-km5-km5-socket?_pos=1\u0026amp;_psq=km5\u0026amp;_ss=e\u0026amp;_v=1.0\"\u003e696800-KM5\u003c\/a\u003e \u0026amp; Extension Tube \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sykes-pickavant.com\/products\/696800-km5ext-km5-extension-tube?_pos=2\u0026amp;_psq=km5\u0026amp;_ss=e\u0026amp;_v=1.0\"\u003e696800-KM5EXT\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1836\" data-start=\"1823\"\u003eKM-6 Socket \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sykes-pickavant.com\/products\/696800-km6-km6-socket?_pos=1\u0026amp;_psq=km6\u0026amp;_ss=e\u0026amp;_v=1.0\"\u003e696800-KM6\u003c\/a\u003e \u0026amp; Extension Tube \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sykes-pickavant.com\/products\/696800-km6ext-km6-extension-tube?_pos=2\u0026amp;_psq=km6\u0026amp;_ss=e\u0026amp;_v=1.0\"\u003e696800-KM6EXT\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"1852\" data-start=\"1839\"\u003eKM-7 Socket \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sykes-pickavant.com\/products\/696800-km7-km7-socket?_pos=1\u0026amp;_psq=km7\u0026amp;_ss=e\u0026amp;_v=1.0\"\u003e696800-KM7\u003c\/a\u003e \u0026amp; Extension Tube \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sykes-pickavant.com\/products\/696800-km7ext-km7-extension-tube?_pos=2\u0026amp;_psq=km7\u0026amp;_ss=e\u0026amp;_v=1.0\"\u003e696800-KM7EXT\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong data-end=\"1827\" data-start=\"1751\"\u003eIndividual KM sockets and extension pieces are also available separately\u003c\/strong\u003e for specific applications or replacements \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/8619\/3431\/files\/69680000_69680100_69680200_Data_Sheet-_2023.pdf?v=1687952441\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eclick\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003ehere for more detailed information on individual sockets and extensions.\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sykes Pickavant","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45452312740119,"sku":"69680100","price":315.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/8619\/3431\/files\/69680100-fullsetweb.jpg?v=1689702980","url":"https:\/\/sykes-pickavant.com\/products\/69680100-km-socket-and-extension-tube-kit","provider":"Sykes Pickavant","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
