Description

3/8-Inch Drive Wobble Extension Bar, Chrome-Plated

Brief Overview

This 3/8-inch drive wobble extension bar is an essential accessory for any professional shop working with angled or recessed fasteners. The spring-loaded ball detent mechanism allows the socket to tilt up to approximately 15 degrees off-axis, making it invaluable for confined spaces and awkward angles where standard extensions fail. The chrome-plated finish resists corrosion and maintains appearance through heavy use. Pair this with smaller 1/4-inch wobble extensions for complete drive-size coverage, or consider larger 1/2-inch wobble bars to round out your extension inventory.

Key Features

  • Spring-Loaded Detent Ball: Holds sockets securely in place while allowing controlled tilting action
  • Chrome-Plated Construction: Durable polished finish resists corrosion and wear
  • Male Square Drive (Input): 3/8-inch male drive connector for ratchets and breaker bars
  • Female Square Recess (Output): Accepts standard 3/8-inch drive sockets
  • Precision-Machined Shaft: Stamped with identifying marks for inventory control
  • Wobble Articulation: Permits socket angles of approximately 15 degrees off-center axis

The wobble joint prevents cam-out damage to fastener heads while maintaining secure socket seating. Chrome plating ensures longevity even in workshops with high humidity or saltwater environments.

Bottom Line for Your Shop: Stock this extension in quantity. It's one of the few accessories that pays for shelf space through repeat sales and satisfied customers.
