13/16" thin wall deep socket for top plugs

Hi Guys,
I need to get a socket for the top plugs of my Hummel 2400. I need a 13/16" thin wall deep socket for the top plugs. These are normal aircraft style plugs so the socket needs to be deep enough to accommodate A/C type plugs.
I now have THREE plug sockets that don’t work. Each claimed to be deep. One of the sockets is 6" long, but no deeper than the others. This is getting embarrassing:-)
Does anyone have a good part number and source for the socket I need?
Thanks,
Wes

I sent an email to Scott. He uses “CRAFTSMAN Standard (SAE) 1/2-in Drive 12-point 13/16-in Deep Socket”. P/N 47527.
I’ll get one.

Hi Wes,
That is what I use is the Craftsman deep socket. I have a question what size is your prop? I think I am over pitched as I can only get about 3100 static and 3150 in cruise wot. My prop is Prince P Tip 54x50
I have 95 hours on my 2400 and love it, but still hope someday to have a little more horses.

Yep, that’ll do it.
