Details

Large, Stamped Markings

Permanently impressed into the material by a roll-stamp die
As large as possible while still being readable along the socket's curved surface
Clearly visible size numbers with extra-deep outline

Fully Stepped Shoulders

Narrowed diameter stretches to the base of the socket on small, deep-length sizes. This provides greater reach into tight, recessed areas.

Exterior and Interior Finishes

Chrome-plated exterior is highly corrosion resistant and wipes clean to a mirror finish
Interior is protected against rust with clear coat, rather than commonly-used metallic paint

6-Point Socket Opening

Provides an exact fit and maximum contact for hex fasteners.

Prevents Fastener Round-Off

Radiused corners prevent fastener round-off by applying force to a fastener’s flat sides, rather than its corners.

Secure Drive Tool Engagement

Detent grooves and beveled edges provide a smooth and secure connection with the drive tool.

1/4 Inch Drive Deep Length Socket Proof Torque

Meets a minimum value of 1.2 times the ASME standard for proof torque. Verified by a single-cycle test that applies torque until the specified value is reached without failure or permanent deformation.
