1/4-Inch Drive 6-Point Long Hand Socket

Brief Overview

These 1/4-inch drive 6-point long hand sockets deliver precision engagement on hex fasteners across a comprehensive 4–14mm size range. The extended length provides superior reach into recessed fastener locations—critical for assembly work, component replacement, and confined-space applications where standard shallow sockets fall short. The satin chrome finish resists corrosion while the knurled grip band ensures confident handling during repetitive tasks. Whether stocking a general mechanic's toolkit or supplying specialized assembly lines, these sockets represent an essential foundation. Pair these with complementary socket drive tools to build a complete fastening system for your customer base.

Key Features

• 6-Point Design: Grips hex fasteners securely without rounding, ensuring consistent torque transfer and reduced slippage on critical assemblies.
• Extended Length: 50mm body length reaches deep recesses and bolt heads in confined engine bays, under-chassis locations, and interior panel assemblies.
• Knurled Grip Band: Textured middle section prevents hand slip during high-frequency use, reducing fatigue on assembly line operations.
• Satin Chrome Finish: Durable corrosion-resistant coating maintains clarity of embossed size markings and withstands workshop humidity and cleaning cycles.
• 1/4-Inch Drive: Universal compatibility with standard 1/4-inch ratchets, impact drivers, and torque wrenches—no adapter inventory required.
• 14 Sizes Available: 4mm to 14mm covers metric fasteners across automotive, light machinery, and electronics assembly.

Business Advantages for Resellers

• High Turnover: Socket sets are foundational purchases; customers buy multiple sizes and return for replacements.
• Margin-Friendly: Low manufacturing cost paired with steady professional demand enables healthy wholesale markups.
• Cross-Sell Opportunity: Customers purchasing individual sockets often add ratchets, extension bars, and drive adapters—bundle them to increase average order value.
• Minimal Returns: Durable construction means fewer defect claims and simplified inventory management.
• Professional Positioning: Offering metric long sockets signals that you supply serious tooling, not consumer-grade alternatives.
