Product Description Breaker bars are long non ratcheting bars that are used with socket wrench style sockets. Their primary function is to loosen tight fasteners as their extra length means you can get more torque by using the same amount of force that you would with a standard sized socket wrench. They also prevent damage to the built in ratcheting mechanism of a normal socket wrench. Generally after half a turn of a fastener a socket wrench can be used as it is loose enough to do so.Anyone who has tried to undo a tyre bolt will know they are done up very tight because they are applied with a large amount of torque using impact wrenches. This is why breaker bars are most commonly used when changing tyres by the roadside because they offer the user more leverage when loosening those bolts. These tools are ideal for any mechanic or even to keep in the car because you never know where or when you may need to change your tyres.This Rolson 38119 Dr Breaker bar has been manufactured using a hardened and tempered chrome vanadium steel bar with a high chrome finish for extra strength and durability with a professional looking design. This model has long slim handles and flexible knuckle joints, with an overall length of 450mm. Box Contains 1 x 1/2" Drive 450mm Breaker Bar
