SOCKET TOOL

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a socket tool safely holding washers and surely performing nut attaching/detaching work according to various facilities to which the number of washers is variously set. SOLUTION: The socket tool 1 is composed of a body 2 and a washer receiving part 3 movable relative to the body 2. The washer receiving part 3 is installed so that a ring-like magnet 3b arranged on the bottom face is located within the nearly same plane as the upper end face of the body, and is movable downward against the energizing force of a spring 4. The upper end of the body 2 is formed with a recessed part fittable to a bolt and a nut, and upper magnets 3c for preventing the fall of the detached washer are installed in the upper end inside of a peripheral wall part 3a of the washer receiving part 3.
