1/4-Inch Drive 6-Point Long Hand Socket, 4–14mm Sizes
Brief Overview
This 1/4-inch drive 6-point long hand socket delivers precision engagement for fastener work across a 4–14mm size range. The extended barrel length (50mm standard) provides reach into recessed or tight fastener locations where standard sockets fall short. The six-point design minimizes cam-out risk on metric fasteners, while the knurled grip band ensures tactile control during hand-driven operation. Whether you're stocking individual sizes or building a complete socket assortment, these sockets are essential for technicians working with European-specification fasteners. Available as individual size selections or complete range kits to match your customers' specific needs.
Key Features
- 6-Point Internal Geometry: Reduces rounding damage on metric hex fasteners; superior to 12-point for torque transmission
- Extended Barrel Design: 50mm length provides access to fasteners in tight or recessed applications
- Knurled Grip Band: Machined texture at midsection prevents slipping during hand operation
- Precision Chrome Finish: Corrosion-resistant satin chrome coating withstands workshop conditions
- Tight Tolerances: Dimensional consistency (D1/D2 control) ensures secure seating on 1/4-inch square drive tools
- Chamfered Openings: Smooth entry angles reduce fastener edge damage during engagement
Business Advantages for Resellers
- Size Range Flexibility: 11 individual sizes (4–14mm) plus intermediate options (4.5mm, 5.5mm) allow customers to purchase exactly what they need—reducing dead stock while maximizing margin opportunities
- High Turnover Category: Hand sockets are consumable-adjacent items with predictable reorder rates; customers lose, break, or upgrade regularly
- Professional Positioning: Metric socket sets signal quality-focused inventory; attract European car service shops, industrial maintenance teams, and precision assembly work
- Bundling Potential: Pair individual sizes with complementary socket selections to increase average transaction value
- Minimal Shelf Footprint: Compact design allows high-density storage and attractive wall-mount displays
