A universal socket wrench, also known as a universal socket or universal joint socket, is a versatile hand tool designed for turning various types of fasteners, such as nuts and bolts. Its distinctive feature is the presence of a universal joint mechanism, allowing the socket to articulate and flex at different angles. This flexibility enables the wrench to access fasteners in tight or awkward spaces where a regular socket wrench might be challenging to use. Universal socket wrenches typically have a square drive on one end for attaching different-sized sockets, providing adaptability to a range of fastener sizes and types.
