Apex 80131D Socket 1/4 in Drive 6 Point 9 Mm Chrome

Product Description

The APEX 80131D is a 1/4 inch drive, 6-point, 9 MM full polish chrome socket designed for professional use in automotive, mechanical, and general trade applications. The off-corner loading design applies force to the flats of fasteners rather than the corners, reducing the risk of rounding and improving fastener grip. Large, hard-stamped size markings make identification fast in the field or in a packed toolbox. At 0.965 inches in length and 0.02 pounds, it is a compact, lightweight tool suited for tight-access work where a standard drive fits the task.

This socket is used across automotive repair, HVAC equipment service, plumbing fixture installation, and general mechanical work where a 1/4 inch drive and 9 MM fastener size are required. It is well suited for professional technicians who need reliable, repeatable socket performance on production or service work. The full polish chrome finish resists corrosion and simplifies cleaning after use in greasy or contaminated environments.
