Custom Sockets | MSD-CS
Custom Sockets | MSD-CS
Machinery Service & Design can manufacture any specialty tool you may need at an affordable price.
This socket tool is used on pistons with recessed nuts. The socket can be made to any size and/or configuration mounted to a standard plate that fits our Nut Busters®. These sockets are made to take the high torques our Nut Buster develops.
The through hole on our socket tools allows for clearance of the cushion extension found on some cylinders. With the MSD-CS socket tool the need for deep well sockets in the larger sizes is eliminated.
We can custom build to any size or configuration.
Drive Plates, 1" or 1.5" | MSD-DP-1, MSD-DP-1.5

CAUTION — all of our Nut Busters® will develop torques exceeding manufacturers’ recommended limits.
