Ordered 36mm but seems bit slack? Is it 35mm?

It's a 36mm as you say, on all on the ones I've worked on.

I had the same problem - even though the nut was in good condition so a 1-1/16" socket does the job well. I know..I'm from a metric country but sometimes the older imperial meaures work just as well! Smile

Now wait just a minute there....seems like 1 1/16 would be a very snug 36mm. Maybe 1 5/ 16.

Yes it's a snug fit but no chance or rounding off the nut Cool

In all my years, I've never had an issue with a good quality metric socket. What a palava! Rolling Eyes

Not really - just 2 guys from opposing ends of the world harmlessly shooting the breeze via a forum.

If possible buy a hexagonal socket not a Bi-hexagonal , with the nut being shallow it will be a better fit.

Thanks found one on Ebay. Stuck it on end of my 12v impact wrench and rattled
It off without needing to lock wheel!
