Tuhls 3/8" Drive 16mm Magnetic Swivel Spark Plug Socket
Tuhls 3/8" Drive 16mm Magnetic Swivel Spark Plug Socket
Service deep, recessed spark plug wells with confidence using the Tuhls 3/8" Drive 16mm Magnetic Swivel Spark Plug Socket. Combining a thin wall 12-point design, a 360° swivel head, and a strong internal magnet, this socket is built to reach, grip, and retain the plug on removal and installation. A must-have ignition service tool for any application running a 16mm spark plug hex, including Volkswagen, Audi, BMW, and MINI engines.
The precision-machined thin wall body slips into narrow plug tubes where a standard socket will not fit, while the 12-point drive allows the socket to index onto the plug hex at twice as many positions as a 6-point, a real advantage in tight engine bays with limited swing.
Swivel Head Access
The built-in universal joint lets the socket articulate around intake piping, coil harnesses, strut towers, and cowl panels. Approach the plug at an angle and keep the ratchet where you can actually turn it, without stacking extensions and wobble adapters.
Magnetic Retention
A strong internal magnet captures the spark plug during removal and holds it securely on installation, so plugs come straight out of the well and start straight into the threads. No dropped plugs in the valley and no cracked porcelain from a fumbled install.
