Each socket is forged from heat-treated chrome vanadium steel, finished with black oxide for added rust protection, and shaped to clear sensor wiring with an 8mm x 64mm side slot. The set is sized for common automotive oxygen sensors and works with 3\/8\" drive tools, making it a versatile addition to any automotive toolbox.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does this socket set handle stuck or corroded oxygen sensors?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe sockets are built from heat-treated chrome vanadium steel that resists bending under high torque, and the black oxide finish reduces surface corrosion so sockets remain serviceable over time. The 6-point profile gives firm contact with the sensor hex to minimize rounding when using breaker bars or ratchets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHeat-treated chrome vanadium construction for strength\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBlack oxide coating to slow rust and corrosion\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-point design reduces slippage on sensor hex nuts\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with breaker bars for extra leverage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I remove sensors with the wiring harness still attached?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — the sockets feature an 8mm x 64mm side cutout that allows the sensor wiring to pass through while you turn the tool, so you don’t have to disconnect or stretch fragile leads. The low-profile and offset shape also helps reach sensors in tight engine bays.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSide slot accepts wiring harness without disconnecting\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOffset, compact geometry for confined spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLengths sized to clear surrounding components\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eWorks with common sensor placements on many vehicles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat sizes and drive interfaces are included, and what do they fit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe collection centers on the 7\/8\" (22mm) hex size common to most oxygen sensors, with a 3\/8\" square drive interface that mates with standard ratchets and extension bars.

After use, clean off grime and store in a dry place; the black oxide finish helps, but occasional light oiling will prevent surface rust.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePair with 3\/8\" ratchets, breaker bars, or 1\" wrenches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eClean debris after jobs and apply light rust-preventative oil\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAvoid excessive impact force on the socket to preserve the hex profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStore in a toolbox or organizer to protect the side slot and finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWho is this for: The Prokomon oxygen sensor socket set is aimed at professional mechanics, mobile technicians, and car owners who perform routine diagnostics and repairs. It’s especially useful for anyone who needs a reliable, purpose-built tool for sensor service on a wide range of passenger vehicles, and for those who prefer to keep sensor wiring intact during removal. If you handle O2 sensor swaps, exhaust repairs, or sensor diagnostics, this set streamlines those jobs with durable, vehicle-friendly design features.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003csection class=\"product-faq-snippet\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Will this socket set fit my car's oxygen sensor?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Most O2 sensors use a 7\/8\" (22mm) hex; this set is made for that size and fits common passenger vehicles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"faq-item\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-q\"\u003eQ: Can I use these sockets with a breaker bar?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"faq-a\"\u003eA: Yes — they are heat-treated and designed to work with 3\/8\" ratchets, breaker bars, and 1\" wrenches for extra leverage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e","brand":"Prokomon","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55168537592151,"sku":"B08F27FY1W","price":77.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1050\/1524\/7191\/files\/prokomon-front-view-packaging.jpg?v=1790407333","url":"https:\/\/britishgarage.co.uk\/products\/prokomon-oxygen-sensor-socket-set-10pc-7-8-22mm-3-8-drive-black-oxide-side-slot","provider":"British Garage","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
