1/4-Inch Drive 6-Point Long Hand Socket, 4–14mm

Brief Overview

This 1/4-inch drive, 6-point long hand socket is engineered for precision work in tight quarters where standard shallow sockets fall short. The extended length provides improved reach and leverage, while the 6-point design grips fastener heads securely without the cam-out risk associated with 12-point sockets. Whether you're working on small machinery, electronics assembly, or automotive detail work, this socket delivers the accuracy your crew expects. The complete range spans 4mm to 14mm—covering the most common fastener sizes for light-duty and precision applications. Consider pairing with complementary socket sets to maximize your inventory breadth and capture additional margin.

Key Features

• 6-Point Design: Reduces rounding and slipping on hex fastener heads; ideal for worn or difficult fasteners
• Long Format: Extended reach (50mm total length) for confined spaces and recessed bolt heads
• Precision Machining: Each socket is machined to tight tolerances for consistent drive-fit engagement
• Knurled Thumb Grip: Machined knurling band on the body improves grip control during hand operation
• Chrome/Steel Finish: Durable matte finish resists corrosion and maintains appearance through repeated use
• Single-Piece Construction: Seamless body eliminates weak points; no welds or assembly joins
• Chamfered Openings: Smooth entry at both the hex recess and drive end prevents edge chipping
