Fixman 3/8" Drive Extension Bar 150mm

At a Glance: 150mm extension bar with 3/8" drive for improving socket access to recessed, obstructed and difficult-to-reach fasteners

The Fixman FIX J0305 3/8" drive extension bar is a practical socket accessory designed to increase the reach between a compatible ratchet or handle and socket. Its 150mm length helps users access fasteners positioned inside deeper recesses, behind obstructions or in areas where a ratchet cannot be placed directly over the fastener. Suitable for use with compatible 3/8" drive sockets and hand tools, it is a useful addition to automotive, workshop, machinery, maintenance, assembly and repair toolkits.

Additional reach for recessed and obstructed fasteners

The 150mm extension bar positions the ratchet or handle farther away from the socket, helping the user clear surrounding components and reach fasteners inside deeper recesses. It is particularly useful for engine bays, machinery, equipment and assemblies where direct access is limited.
