Upgrade Your Toolset with Socket Universal Joints

Socket Universal Joints That Stay Put: Easing Access to Tight Spots

Every time you add a universal joint to an extension, you know the socket is going to weigh it down, making it hard to fit onto the fastener. If you could find a universal joint that you could adjust to the right angle and make it stay in that position, it would be easier to get your socket in place in tight spots.

I saw this Titan Tools 3 Pc. Auto Flex Universal Joint set at SEEMA Show 2022 and had a chance to try it. The socket U-joint has a plastic piece installed that prevents the joint from flopping around so it stays in place.

The Titan 85505 3-Piece Auto Flex Universal Joint Set has these features:

• Auto Flex universal adapter is engineered to spring back to center
• The universal adapter articulates under spring tension, providing semi-rigid directional control and accuracy | No more hanging or using tape
• Set includes: (1) 1/4-Inch, (1) 3/8-Inch, (1) 1/2-Inch Drive Auto Flex U-Joint
• Chrome vanadium steel construction with rust-resistant mirror polish and red electrostatic finish | Knurling for sure grip and detent ball and notch for secure socket retention

The 3-piece set sells for $24 at amazon.com
