What happens here

The Annex offset adapter system typically comes with multiple smaller adapters to accommodate various socket drive sizes. The video shows two common adapters: one for 3/8-inch drive sockets (9.52mm) and another for 1/2-inch drive sockets (12.7mm). To use, simply insert the desired size adapter into the main offset tool's receiving end, and then attach your corresponding socket to the adapter. This flexibility ensures that the offset tool can be used with a wide range of standard sockets for different fastener sizes.

Goal: Use the offset adapter with various socket drive sizes.

Tools and materials

  • 1/2-inch Drive Adapter Annex — Allowing the main tool to accept 1/2-inch drive sockets
  • 3/8-inch Drive Adapter Annex — Allowing the main tool to accept 3/8-inch drive sockets
  • Annex Offset Adapter — The base tool for holding the socket adapters
  • Sockets — Demonstrating compatibility with different drive sizes

What they say

Hide

you can get in there and take it right out or tighten it up, that is awesome. All right, and is this what, what is this? This is the special adapter to go in this. So we've got two adapters here that come with this to allow you to adapt to three eights and a half ends. That's for that awkward, hard to reach, not that it's just offset just a little bit and you're getting in there and it's still gonna work.
