Apex 80127 Socket 1/4 in Drive 6 Point 5.5 Mm Chrome

Product Description

The APEX 80127 is a 1/4 inch drive, 6-point, 5.5 MM full polish chrome socket designed for professional fastener work across a wide range of trade applications. The 6-point geometry uses off-corner loading to apply force on the flats of fasteners rather than the corners, reducing the risk of rounding worn or stubborn hardware. Large, hard-stamped size markings make quick identification straightforward in a busy toolbox or on the job site. The full polish chrome finish resists corrosion and simplifies cleanup after use.

This socket is suited for use in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general mechanical service where a compact 1/4 inch drive tool is needed to access tight spaces or work with smaller fasteners. At 0.965 inches in length, it fits standard 1/4 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and adapters. It is sold individually and is appropriate for both shop and field technicians who require a reliable, single-size socket without purchasing a full set.

Key Features

• 6-point off-corner loading design reduces fastener rounding on worn hardware
• 1/4 inch drive compatible with standard ratchets and extensions
• 5.5 MM size with large hard-stamped markings for fast identification
• Full polish chrome finish for corrosion resistance and easy cleaning

Installation Notes

This socket is installed and removed by hand onto any 1/4 inch drive ratchet or extension. Ensure the drive connection is fully seated before applying torque to avoid slippage. When working on HVAC, electrical, or plumbing equipment, de-energize and isolate the system before beginning any fastener work. Use the correct socket size for the fastener to avoid damage to hardware or the tool.
