Description

9-Piece 3/8" Drive Hex Allen SAE Bit Socket Set

Brief Overview

This 9-piece SAE hex bit socket set delivers the core inch-size range your technicians reach for on a daily basis. The set covers 1/8" through 1/2" in a compact, organized format with a dedicated chrome rail for workshop organization and portability. For shops looking to expand their hex socket inventory, consider pairing this with larger metric options or extended reach variants to cover both SAE and metric applications efficiently.

Key Features

  • Nine SAE sizes: 1/8", 5/32", 3/16", 7/32", 1/4", 5/16", 3/8", 7/16", 1/2"
  • 3/8" square drive: Compatible with standard 3/8" ratchets and air tools
  • Chrome Vanadium construction: Hardened alloy resists hex cam-out and deformation
  • Chrome-plated finish: Corrosion resistance and easy cleaning
  • Knurled grip band: Non-slip handling in wet or high-volume shop environments
  • Organized storage rail: Nine individual clipped holders keep sockets secure and accessible; mounting hole for wall or tool cart installation

Why Resellers Choose This Set

Stock Essential Coverage: The 1/8"–1/2" range covers approximately 85% of routine hex fastener work in automotive, maintenance, and light industrial applications. Techs will use these sockets daily, making them a steady turnover item.

Bulk Order Advantage: At nine pieces per set, your cost per socket is significantly lower than single-socket purchases. Stock 5–10 units to capture recurring shop orders without heavy capital outlay.

Professional Presentation: The chrome rail is a value-add for smaller shops that appreciate ready-to-hang organization. This bundled approach justifies a modest margin increase compared to loose sockets.

Proven Compatibility: 3/8" drive is the most common ratchet/impact tool size in North American shops. Wide adoption means consistent demand across all customer segments.
