Facom Breaker Bar 1/2″ Square Drive – HSDBB

Technical Information
Breaker bars are used in conjunction with socket wrench-style sockets to loosen fastenings such as nuts & bolts. Breaker bars, however, are used specifically when a fastening is too tight and cannot be undone by a smaller tool, such as a ratchet, wrench or spanner. Most breaker bars are made from polished chrome steel, which gives them their strength and their polished finish and also makes them easy to maintain.

By having a longer handle and no ratcheting system, these tools are able to deliver more torque under the same amount of force as one would use on a smaller tool, which aids the removal of seized fasteners. Once the nut or bolt is released, it can continue to be loosened by a socket wrench.
