TORX 1/4-Inch E-12 Socket
Brief Overview
This is a standard-duty TORX E-12 socket engineered for 1/4-inch drive ratchets and power tools. The chrome-finished steel construction provides corrosion resistance and durability for workshop and field use. The knurled grip band ensures secure hand control during manual operation. If your shop works with TORX fasteners regularly, consider pairing this socket with complementary TORX hand tools or the smaller E-10 socket to cover a wider range of applications.
