Description
HT 9mm Pedal Socket
The HT 9mm Pedal Socket is a specialized tool designed for installing and removing pedals with 9mm hex-style spindles. This socket provides a secure fit on the hex interface, allowing for proper torque application during installation and easier removal of tight or corroded pedals. It's a necessary tool for servicing specific pedal models that use internal hex fittings rather than standard wrench flats.
Key Features
- 9mm hex socket design – Fits pedal spindles with 9mm internal hex interfaces, providing full contact across all six faces to prevent rounding
- Proper torque application – Socket design allows use with a ratchet or breaker bar for controlled installation torque and increased leverage during removal
- Prevents spindle damage – Full hex engagement distributes force evenly, reducing the risk of stripping the hex socket in the pedal spindle
Technical Specifications

Compatibility and Ideal Use Cases
This socket works exclusively with pedals that have a 9mm hex interface on the spindle end. Not all pedals use this standard—verify your pedals require a 9mm hex tool before purchasing. Common on certain HT pedal models and other brands that use internal hex fittings. Use with a ratchet, torque wrench, or breaker bar depending on whether you're installing (torque wrench recommended for proper tightening) or removing pedals. Essential for mechanics or riders who service their own bikes and have pedals with this spindle design.
