5-Piece Suspension Strut Nut Socket Set – Precision Sockets for Safe & Efficient Shock Absorber Servicing

This 5-piece suspension strut nut socket set is an essential tool kit for safely removing and installing suspension top-mount nuts on a wide range of vehicles, including Porsche models. Designed specifically for strut assemblies and shock absorbers, these sockets provide the correct fit, depth and clearance required to access top nuts without damaging threads, mounts or surrounding components.

Ideal for professional workshops and home mechanics, this set includes five common strut nut sizes—18mm, 19mm, 21mm, 22mm and 24mm—ensuring compatibility with most modern suspension systems.

What This Strut Nut Socket Set Does

A high-quality strut socket set allows users to:

• Remove and install suspension top nuts safely
• Access recessed or obstructed strut mount areas
• Maintain correct torque application without slipping or rounding the nut
• Protect shock absorber shafts during disassembly
• Enable suspension strut removal, spring replacement and damper servicing
• Work efficiently on tight top mount spaces where standard sockets fail

These sockets are engineered for durability, accuracy and ease of use during suspension repairs.

Why Standard Sockets Fail for Strut Top Nuts

Regular sockets are often unsuitable for suspension strut work due to:

• Incorrect depth, preventing proper engagement
• Insufficient opening, causing interference with shock shafts
• Rounded corners, increasing the risk of stripping the nut
• Material fatigue, leading to cracking under high torque
• Poor fitment, causing slipping and safety hazards

Suspension top nuts are typically tightened under high load, making the correct tool essential to avoid damage.

Why You Should Replace or Upgrade to a Dedicated Strut Nut Socket Set

Using a precision-engineered suspension socket set ensures:

• Accurate, secure engagement with strut top nuts
• Reduced risk of damage to dampers, top mounts and shock shafts
• Faster and safer suspension servicing
• Compatibility with a wide range of vehicles, including Porsche, VAG, BMW and Mercedes
• Long service life thanks to durable, high-strength materials
• Proper torque application for suspension reliability

This toolset is a vital addition to any workshop performing shock absorber or spring replacement work.

Socket Sizes Included
18mm, 19mm, 21mm, 22mm and 24mm

These sizes cover the majority of strut top nuts used in modern European vehicles, including many Porsche models.

6-Piece Suspension Strut Nut Socket Set – Precision Tools for Shock Absorber & Strut Top-Mount Servicing

This 6-piece suspension strut nut socket set is designed for safe, accurate and efficient removal and installation of strut top-mount nuts on a wide range of vehicles, including Porsche models. The set includes the most commonly required sizes—16mm, 18mm, 19mm, 21mm, 22mm and 24mm—making it ideal for workshops, mobile technicians and advanced DIY users.

Strut assemblies often require specialised sockets to reach recessed or partially obstructed top-mount nuts. This tool set provides the correct fit and depth to prevent slipping, rounding or damaging the nut or shock absorber shaft during suspension repairs.

What This Strut Nut Socket Set Does

A professional strut nut socket set allows you to:

• Remove and install strut top-mount nuts safely
• Access deep-seated or obstructed shock absorber top-nuts
• Apply accurate torque without slipping or rounding the nut
• Protect the shock absorber shaft from accidental rotation
  
• Support suspension work, including strut replacement, spring servicing and damper installation
  
• Work efficiently on modern strut assemblies where standard sockets simply do not fit

These sockets are essential for any suspension service, ensuring clean and damage-free results.

Why Standard Sockets Often Fail on Suspension Work

Suspension top-mount nuts can be challenging due to:

• Limited access, making standard sockets too bulky or too short
  
• Incorrect internal clearance, causing contact with the shock shaft
  
• Rounded edges, increasing the risk of slipping under torque
  
• Material fatigue, leading to cracked or warped sockets
  
• Insufficient depth, preventing full nut engagement
  
• High torque requirements, putting extra stress on ordinary sockets

Using incorrect tools can easily damage the strut assembly, leading to costly repairs.

Why You Upgrade to a Dedicated Suspension Socket Set

Upgrading to a specialised strut nut socket set offers:

• Correct, secure socket engagement on suspension top-mount nuts
  
• Faster, safer suspension servicing
• Reduced risk of damage to dampers, mounts and shock shafts
  
• Compatibility with modern European cars, including Porsche, BMW, Mercedes, Audi, VW and more
  
• Professional durability for repeated workshop use
  
• Peace of mind when working with high-load suspension components

This toolset is indispensable for any suspension overhaul, shock absorber replacement or performance suspension installation.

Socket Sizes Included

16mm, 18mm, 19mm, 21mm, 22mm and 24mm

Covering the full range of sizes used across European and performance-oriented vehicles.

Air Conditioning Compressor Clutch Holding Tool – Secure and Damage-Free Clutch Removal for A/C Compressor Servicing

This air conditioning compressor clutch holding tool is designed to securely hold the compressor clutch in place during removal or servicing. Air conditioning compressors are fitted with a clutch assembly that must be held firmly while the retaining nut or bolt is removed. Attempting clutch removal without the correct holding tool risks damage to the pulley, clutch plate, compressor shaft, or surrounding components.

Whether performing routine service, replacing a worn clutch, diagnosing aircon failure, or rebuilding an A/C compressor, this tool ensures a fast, controlled and professional-level repair.

What This A/C Compressor Clutch Holding Tool Does

This specialist tool allows technicians to:

• Secure the A/C compressor clutch during removal or installation
  
• Prevent rotation of the clutch plate when loosening or tightening fasteners
  
• Protect compressor internals from damage caused by incorrect tool use
  
• Enable safe removal of worn or seized clutch assemblies
• Support complete air conditioning compressor rebuilds
• Ensure proper alignment and torque application during reassembly

Ideal for workshops and enthusiasts working on Porsche and other premium vehicle air conditioning systems.

Why A/C Compressor Clutches Fail

Common causes of compressor clutch wear or failure include:

• Heat stress from engine bay temperatures
• Bearing wear, causing noise or excessive vibration
  
• Electromagnetic coil failure, resulting in intermittent engagement
  
• Pulley misalignment, wearing clutch plates unevenly
  
• Low refrigerant levels, forcing the clutch to cycle excessively
  
• Contamination inside the A/C system
• Age-related degradation of friction materials

When these symptoms occur, clutch removal is essential for repair or replacement—making a purpose-built holding tool indispensable.

Why This Tool Should Be Used or Replaced

Upgrading to a quality clutch holding tool ensures:

• Damage-free clutch removal
• Accurate and stable clutch locking
• Reduced risk of bending, warping or scratching components
• Efficient and safe A/C compressor servicing
• Long-term reliability during repeated workshop use
• Professional-grade results for both road and performance vehicles

Using improvised tools can damage the clutch or compressor—leading to an expensive replacement rather than a simple repair.

Hylomar Gasket 3400 is a modified anaerobic curing, flexible sealant designed to become a Formed in Place (FIP) Gasket when cured. The cured compound has good temperature resistance and high resistance to fretting. The cure is initiated when the compound is in contact with metal ions and in anaerobic conditions. The cure rate and final strength is dependent on the metals being joined and the temperature at which the component is used. The heat generated by a running engine will accelerate the cure.

Typical Applications
Hylomar Gasket 3400 can be used as a gasketing compound between machined surfaces. It is ideal for sealing between mating faces on engines and transmission components where resistance to temperature and vibration are essential.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Hylomar Gasket 3400 should be applied to clean and dry surfaces, free of contamination such as oil or grease. The compound may be dispensed by hand from cartridge, concertina pack, or via a screen printing system. Once applied the joint should be assembled as soon as practical. Any excess compound can be easily wiped off external surfaces with a clean cloth soaked in Acetone or other suitable solvents.
