Key Features of Blue Spot Socket Adaptors & Converters

• Chrome vanadium steel: the impact-rated sets are made from this strong, durable alloy, so they cope with regular professional use on cordless tools.
• 1/4" hex drive: the hex sets fit standard cordless screwdriver and drill chucks, and let you use 1/4in, 3/8in and 1/2in drive sockets.
• 150mm long reach: the long reach set gets sockets into confined or awkward spaces where a standard adaptor cannot.
• Colour coding: the colour coded set helps you pick the right drive size at a glance, which saves time when you are switching between fixings.
• Universal joint: the 7 piece set lets you work at an angle, which helps when a straight approach to the fastener is blocked.
• Square drive sets: these adaptors step between drive sizes, so you can use sockets and ratchets from different sets.

Only use impact tools with adaptors that are marked as impact-rated.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use Blue Spot socket adaptors with a cordless drill?

Yes. The 1/4" hex sets are made for cordless screwdrivers and drills, so you can fit 1/4in, 3/8in and 1/2in drive sockets. Check the chuck grips the hex firmly before you start.

Which set suits tight spaces?

The 3 Piece 1/4" Hex Long Reach Impact Socket Adaptor Set has 150mm adaptors for recessed fixings. For angled access, the 7 Piece Universal Joint and Socket Adaptor Set is a better fit. Both are available from Tooled-Up.com.

Are all the adaptors suitable for impact drivers?

No. Choose the sets described as impact adaptor sets for use with impact drivers. Use the square drive and universal joint adaptors with hand tools unless the product description says otherwise.
