Snap-on’s Flank Drive Xtra (FDX) socket system grips fasteners further off the corners and offers up to 25% more strength than its predecessor.

Snap-on’s Flank Drive Xtra (FDX) socket system represents the company’s first redesigned socket since it unveiled the Flank Drive system itself in 1965.

The new design grips fasteners further off the corners and offers up to 25% more strength than its predecessor. The angled contour also ensures the socket wall grips damaged fasteners more closely, offering 50% more turning power.

A chamfered lip on the hex and drive ends offers a better grip and more turning power – especially when working with shallow-headed fasteners that have limited top clearance.
