1/2-Inch Drive Hex Bit Socket, 5mm, 100mm Length, Chrome-Plated Steel
Overview
This is a dedicated 5mm hex bit socket engineered for 1/2-inch square drive systems. Built from chromium-vanadium steel with a polished chrome-plated finish, it delivers the precision and durability required for consistent fastening operations. The 100mm overall length positions this socket for accessibility in standard assembly work, while the long hexagonal shank design prevents cam-out and ensures secure engagement with fasteners.
This socket integrates seamlessly into existing 1/2-inch drive tool systems. If your inventory requires coverage across multiple hex sizes, consider complementary options like additional hex bit sockets in larger sizes to build a comprehensive fastening solution.

Application Context
This 5mm socket is precision-scaled for electronics assembly, instrumentation fastening, and fine mechanical work where larger hex bits would be excessive. In automotive settings, it addresses smaller fasteners in electrical connectors, sensor installations, and delicate component assembly. The 100mm shank length balances accessibility with reach—suitable for standard work but not designed for deep-set fastener access.
