Hopefully this isn't a silly question...but does anyone know where I can get a torx E15 female socket? I have a torx socket set but it only goes up E10, E12, E14, E16, E18, no odd numbers after E10. It also seems pretty much every other set is the same...can't find an E15 anywhere.
I know a 10 mm socket fits and is fine for screwing in the bolt, but no enough bite for torquing up drivehsaft flange bolts...

I'm not sure if it is due to the E/T thing? On the Halfords site the big tool sets only list T sizes (inc 15) but no E sizes. Yet I know for sure there are female and male 3/8" drive tools.

Just checked my set and they are all even after E7
Schadenfreude - the German's haven't got a word for that.

Yeah mine are Clarke too. Had a look on the webpage though and the same, all their sets are even sizes only above E7. Will give Haylay group a try, there's one in Mancs, thanks!lamby wrote:i use clarke sockets as they are intended for all uses,have a look on machine mart and it will tell what ones.torque up fine and had them years
