A socket adapter for use with a broom block, the socket adapter for receiving a threaded handle such that the release torque required to remove the handle is aggrandized, i.e. greater than the application torque required to attach the handle. The socket adapter comprises a tube having an annular lip for abutting against a corresponding lip adjacent the threads of the handle and at least one thread on the tube. The thread begins a predetermined distance below the annular lip such that an expansion space is formed above the thread to provide a space into which the handle thread material may expand. Upon tightening the handle in the socket adapter with a predetermined amount of attachment torque, the handle material will expand into the expansion space and create an attachment between the handle and the socket requiring a release torque greater than the attachment torque to remove the handle.
