A COMPLETE SOCKET SET
NO MESS, NO STRESS
As a plumber changing a basin set over can be time consuming and very frustrating, due to the faucet fixing nut corroding into place.
Most plumbers will try to use a basin wrench which is too bulky and hard to use with the limited space between the basin, back of vanity, and breech piece. So we end up resorting to cutting off the faucet which is very dusty/messy and you run the risk of damaging the basin top.
DESIGNED BY A PLUMBER FOR PLUMBERS
The Tough Nut Basin Socket Set has been designed by a plumber for plumbers to make your job easier. We’ve spent years developing this product and believe that we’ve come up with a solution for removing those hard to reach outlet fixing nuts. We only hope that you enjoy using our product as much as we’ve enjoyed making it!

Easy access for hard to reach Faucet fixing nuts
THE AUSTRALIAN DESIGNED AND ENGINEERED BASIN SOCKET SET
THAT MAKES YOUR JOB EASIER
When you need to replace your bathroom basin tap set you have to remove the locking nut which holds the spout to the basin/vanity top. Often the nut will be frozen in place from corrosion or calcium buildup from years of water seepage.
The Tough Nut Basin Socket Set is designed to access the outlet nut in the small space between the basin and the back wall, making it the perfect tool for plumbers worldwide. This allows for the spout outlet to be removed from the basin set without having to remove the taps or grind off the faucet. This once messy and difficult task can now be completed quickly, therefore saving you both time and money.
