Description

3/4-Inch Drive 6-Point Socket, 30mm

Overview

This 30mm 6-point socket is built for industrial-grade fastening work where precision and durability are non-negotiable. The 3/4-inch square drive positions it in the professional heavy-duty category—ideal for automotive transmission work, industrial assembly, and equipment maintenance. The 6-point profile grips fastener flats securely, minimizing cam-out and rounding damage on critical bolts. If you're stocking mid-range metric fasteners for your shop or customer base, this socket pairs effectively with larger capacity 55mm sockets and smaller precision sizes like 27mm variants to complete a well-rounded inventory.

Key Features

  • 6-Point Internal Profile: Distributes force evenly across fastener flats, reducing wear and preventing rounding on damaged or stubborn fasteners
  • Chrome-Plated Steel Construction: Satin chrome finish resists corrosion and maintains professional appearance through intensive shop use
  • Precision Machined Design: Radiused contact points and tight tolerances ensure consistent engagement and minimal wobble
  • Detent Pin Lock: Integrated locking mechanism securely holds the socket on drive extensions and ratchets, preventing accidental separation during work
  • 3/4-Inch Square Drive: Accommodates professional-grade ratchets, breaker bars, torque wrenches, and power tools rated for this drive size
