What happens here

To remove a bolt from a constrained space, first attach the appropriate socket to the end of the offset adapter. Then, insert the adapter's drive end into an impact driver, such as a DeWalt impact driver. Position the offset adapter so that its working end can engage the bolt head. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the bolt. Activate the impact driver to loosen and remove the bolt. The offset design allows the tool to reach around obstacles that would otherwise prevent engagement.

Goal: Successfully remove a bolt that is hard to reach.

Tools and materials

  • Annex Offset Adapter — Providing offset access to the bolt
  • Bolt Assembly — Simulating a fastener in a tight spot
  • Impact Driver DeWalt — Driving the offset adapter to loosen the bolt
  • Socket — Engaging the head of the bolt

We've got one more demo from the guys at Annex here, and they're gonna be showing us an offset adapter, okay? So you can't get down in here with the socket, but this little adapter right here, 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?
