Apex 80138 Socket 1/4 in Drive 6 Point 4 Mm Chrome

Product Description

The APEX 80138 is a 1/4 inch drive, 6-point, 4 MM full polish chrome socket designed for professional fastener work across a wide range of trade applications. The 6-point geometry uses an off-corner loading design that directs force onto the flats of a fastener rather than the corners, reducing the risk of rounding and extending the life of both the socket and the fastener. Large, hard-stamped size markings make quick identification easy in a busy tool bag or socket rail. The full polish chrome finish resists corrosion and simplifies cleanup after use.

This socket is suited for HVAC technicians, electricians, plumbers, and general trade professionals who work with metric fasteners. The 1/4 inch drive size is well matched to lighter-duty fastening tasks, panel work, and equipment access jobs where a compact drive and low-profile socket profile help in tight spaces. It is sold individually and fits standard 1/4 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and accessories.
