On a theoretical level, the socket extension can act as a torsion bar, reducing the torque getting through to the head of the nut or bolt. I don't think this makes much of a difference for a normal sized extension (which to me means 3/8" drive by 6-7 inches long). Anybody have a table we could look this up on? Just curious... --toms. |
