3/8-Inch Drive 6-Point Long Hand Socket, 15mm
Brief Overview
This 3/8-inch drive long hand socket delivers extended reach to recessed and deep-set fasteners where standard sockets fall short. The 63mm length and 6-point geometry provide precise engagement with hex fastener heads, reducing the risk of rounding. Whether you're stocking individual sizes or building a complete socket set across the 8-24mm range, this 15mm variant is an essential addition to any professional mechanic's toolkit.
Key Features
- 6-Point Internal Geometry: Precise hex engagement minimizes cam-out and fastener rounding; ideal for stubborn or corroded bolts
- Extended 63mm Length: Reaches deep-set fasteners in confined spaces without requiring extensions
- Knurled Grip Ring: Machined knurled band provides secure hand purchase and prevents slipping during use
- Satin Chrome Finish: Durable, corrosion-resistant plating withstands workshop conditions and frequent handling
- Square 3/8" Drive: Compatible with all standard 3/8-inch ratchets, extensions, and impact wrenches
- Compact Design: Tapered body profile balances usability with accessibility in tight work areas
Why This Socket Works for Your Shop
Resellers know that long sockets command premium positioning—they solve real problems on the job. This 15mm socket targets mid-range fastener work (suspension bolts, engine block fasteners, transmission housings) where depth matters. The 6-point design wins over 12-point alternatives in any shop focused on durability and repeatability. Stock this alongside other individual deep socket sizes to serve technicians who prefer buying precisely what they need rather than oversized sets.

Reseller Value Proposition
This socket is a volume play within the 3/8-inch drive category. At 15mm, it occupies the sweet spot for automotive and light industrial fasteners—neither too common to be commoditized nor too niche to limit demand. The knurled grip and extended length justify a modest markup over standard shallow sockets, making it attractive for shops upgrading from lower-grade tools. Individual sizing allows you to sell complete sets or supplement existing kits, maximizing turnover flexibility.
Application Summary
Designed for professional mechanics, technicians, and industrial maintenance teams working with mid-size fasteners in recessed or deep-set applications. Ideal for automotive repair, equipment assembly, and maintenance tasks requiring precision engagement and extended reach.
