Fixman 1/4" Drive Extension Bar 50mm

At a Glance: Compact 50mm extension bar with 1/4" drive for improving socket access in recessed, obstructed and confined working areas

The Fixman FIX J0301 1/4" drive extension bar is a practical socket accessory designed to increase reach between a compatible ratchet or handle and socket. Its compact 50mm length is useful where a fastener is slightly recessed, obstructed or difficult to access directly. Suitable for use with compatible 1/4" drive sockets and hand tools, it is a useful addition to automotive, workshop, maintenance, assembly, repair and DIY toolkits.

Compact extra reach for difficult fastening positions

The 50mm extension bar moves the socket farther away from the ratchet or handle, helping the user reach around minor obstructions and access fasteners positioned inside shallow recesses. Its short length helps retain control in compact working areas.
