Thexton 485 2-Socket Petcock Drain Tool Set
Thexton 485 contains one steel universal petcock socket and one molded plastic socket for narrow-wing plastic drain fittings. A 1/4-inch drive is listed, and the steel socket is also described with an O-ring and a 7/8-inch wrench interface. Choose the socket by the drain fitting's shape and material; universal is a product description, not a guarantee of fit for every radiator, engine block or tank.
