The Bahco S240 provides a compact kit for working with larger nuts and bolts. The Dynamic Drive profile is designed to bear on the flats of a fastener rather than the corners, helping preserve fastener heads during repeated removal and refitting. The included 54-tooth ratchet gives smaller engagement increments where swing space is limited.

Use these sockets with hand tools unless an individual component is specifically marked as impact rated.
Check sockets and accessories for cracks, distortion or excessive wear before use. Clean the tools after use, keep the ratchet mechanism lightly lubricated where required and store the set dry with the case closed.
