Apex 80132 Socket 1/4 in Drive 6 Point 10 Mm Chrome

Product Description

The APEX 80132 is a 1/4 inch drive, 6-point, 10 MM full polish chrome socket designed for professional fastener work across a wide range of applications. The off-corner loading design transfers force to the flats of the fastener rather than the corners, reducing the risk of rounding and improving grip on worn or tight fasteners. Large, hard-stamped size markings make identification fast in the field or in a cluttered toolbox. The full polish chrome finish resists corrosion and wipes clean easily. This socket is sold individually and suits any technician who values precision hand tools in their daily kit.

This socket fits standard 1/4 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and accessories. It is well suited for HVAC technicians, electricians, plumbers, and general service professionals who work with metric fasteners in tight or standard-clearance spaces. The 10 MM size covers a broad range of metric hardware commonly found in residential and light commercial equipment panels, motor mounts, and access covers. At 0.965 inches in length, this is a standard-depth socket appropriate for exposed fastener heads with adequate clearance.
