Frequently Asked Questions

What does the Britool Hallmark LPXS socket adapter do?
The LPXS is a professional square-drive reducer that converts a 3/4" female drive to a 1/2" male drive. It allows compatible 3/4" drive hand tools to be used with smaller 1/2" drive sockets, increasing the versatility of an existing socket and accessory collection.
Which way does the LPXS adapter convert the drive size?
The adapter has a 3/4" female square drive on the input side and a 1/2" male square drive on the output side. In practical terms, a compatible 3/4" drive ratchet, breaker bar or extension fits into the adapter, while a 1/2" drive socket fits onto the male end.
Can I use the LPXS with a 3/4" drive breaker bar or ratchet?
es. The adapter can be used with compatible 3/4" drive manual ratchets, breaker bars, extension bars, torque wrenches and other appropriate hand-tool accessories to accept 1/2" drive sockets. The load applied must remain appropriate for the adapter and the smaller 1/2" drive components being used.
Can I use this adapter to apply full 3/4" drive torque to a 1/2" socket?
No. Reducing from 3/4" drive to 1/2" drive does not increase the torque capacity of the smaller socket, adapter or associated components. Care should be taken not to overload the LPXS or the connected 1/2" drive tooling, particularly when using long 3/4" drive handles or breaker bars.
Can the Britool LPXS adapter be used with an impact wrench?
No. The LPXS is a Chrome Vanadium hand-tool adapter and is not impact-rated. It should not be used with pneumatic, cordless or electric impact wrenches or other powered impact equipment. An appropriately rated impact adapter should be used for impact-tool applications.
Is the Britool LPXS available as part of a complete adapter set?
Yes. The LPXS is also included within the Britool Hallmark ADSET6 6-Piece Socket Adapter Set, which provides a wider selection of square-drive conversions. The LPXS is available individually for users who only require the 3/4" female to 1/2" male reducer or need to replace an existing adapter.
