on the Yank side of the pond, we have plumbing drain plugs which have a
male, square grasping surface. The 12-point machine-screw/bolt sockets
we americans have around, will not grab onto these square tails.

Does anyone make purpose-built, properly-sized female-square socket
drives for rotating these plumbing items when the clearance around them
is too small to allow a wrench?


Go to Sears. They have 8 point sockets. Snap on and Mac have them also.

they come up with this striped stuff.
