Fixman Extension Bar 1/4" x 100mm
At a Glance: 100mm extension bar with 1/4" drive for extra reach when using compatible sockets and ratchets
The Fixman FIX J0303 extension bar is designed to provide extra reach when working with compatible 1/4" drive sockets, ratchets and accessories. The 100mm length helps access recessed or awkwardly positioned fasteners where a socket fitted directly to the ratchet may not reach comfortably, making it useful for workshop, automotive, machinery, equipment, appliance, assembly, maintenance and general repair applications.
This 1/4" drive extension bar is a practical socket accessory for smaller fastening tasks. It fits between a compatible 1/4" drive ratchet and socket, helping improve access to fasteners in tighter or deeper working positions.
