SURFACE DRIVE is a super-flat, surface-contact socket that has been developed further from the flat-surface contact design of FLAT DRIVE.
Compared to FLAT DRIVE, SURFACE DRIVE utilizes contact on the larger area closer to the center of the bolt or nut. SURFACE DRIVE is useful for painted face nuts or any bolt or nut made of soft material, with less risk of damaging the faces. SURFACE DRIVE can also be useful for a bolt or nut that has been damaged or deformed. SURFACE DRIVE enables easier engagement to a bolt or nut and efficient work. Less damage to bolts or nuts and better work efficiency can be achieved. SURFACE DRIVE socket design works well with multiple spindle nutrunner systems used in Manufacturing.
The Surface Drive locates the fastener head quicker than traditional Six Point or Flat Drive sockets. The concave area between each convex radius of the SURFACE DRIVE compensates for any misalignment between the socket and the fastener head helping to align all the tooling in a multiple spindle nutrunner.
Koken Z-Series is designed for lower profile applications in difficult to get to locations. As an expert maker, we have been manufacturing socket wrenches for half century, and give our know-how and enthusiasm on them. Here we provide Z-series as next generation mechanic standard of socket wrenches.
