41mm + 46mm 7075 Rear Wheel Axle Nut Socket Tool for Ducati all 748 848 916 996 998 MH900 Multistrada with single sided swingarm Monster S2R S4R S4RS 796 1100 Hypermotard 796 1100 Streetfighter 848

Quality tool, nice feel, worked perfectly for my 950SP. Even after using impact gun to remove nut, no damage to nut or tool. Just use a bit of tape. Recommend.

I noticed there a couple of negitive reviews before buying this socket. I took the chance and it worked flawlessly, zero issues. I even used it on a heavy duty impact gun and it spun the large nut off without any problems what so ever. I checked the inside of the socket and it just wore off a little of the black anodizing and that's it. I would highly recommend this product, great value and good quality.

Got this tool to remove the rear wheel to replace the tire. This tool works on both side of the swingarm. You can use it to remove the wheel or the whole hub assembly. I tried using a breaker bar with a short 1/2" extension and that rear axle nut did not want to budge. End up using a 1/2" high torque impact to remove the nut and though the hole where the anvil goes in, it got a little distorted and on the tool there's a lip that will come in contact with the cone spacer marring it up. I probably take this tool on a lathe and remove that lip on the wheel side. The tool fits and though it got a bit of distorted but it works and got the nut off.

Correct sizing, durability issues. Second use of the socket and the aluminum is already rounding itself off. It’s a big paperweight at this point. I’d suggest getting steel

The socket is of high quality. Due to the shallow design of the axle nut, it is difficult to use any socket like this with a breaker bar to remove a highly torqued axle nut. With the nut being so shallow, it is easy to get the socket (any socket really) cocked resulting in damage to the socket. My second attempt with an impact wrench was successful. It is good that this socket is aluminum since I would rather damage it than the axle nut.

Purchased this to remove the read wheel on a Hypermotard 950 and it worked like a charm for that purpose. Nut fits both sides of the axle.

Get a mid strength impact wrench and voila! Little ratchet isn't going to get it done. Socket stands up to the 150 ft lbs of torque.

The material is a little soft for breaking stubborn axle nuts loose. But this seems to be more for someone who is taking their wheels off more often than I might. In that instance, I think this would work great. It is made of aluminum (I believe), so not as tough as your usual socket. Also, you'll need at least a 1" extension to use both sides effectively. Well made and nice to look at.
