Apex 80209 Socket 1/4 in Drive 12 Point 15 Mm Chrome

Product Description

The APEX 80209 is a full polish chrome socket designed for 1/4 inch drive applications. It features a 12-point configuration and a 15 MM opening, making it suitable for a wide range of fastener-removal and installation tasks. The off-corner loading design transfers force to the flats of the fastener rather than the corners, reducing the risk of rounding worn or damaged hardware. Large, hard-stamped size markings allow quick identification in a toolbox or on a workbench. At 0.07 pounds, the socket is lightweight without sacrificing the strength required for daily trade use.

This socket is suited for residential and light commercial service work across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general mechanical applications. Its 1/4 inch drive sizing makes it a practical choice for confined spaces and low-torque fastener work. The standard-length profile fits a variety of common ratchets, extensions, and drive tools already found in most service technician kits.

Key Features

• 1/4 inch drive with 12-point 15 MM opening for broad fastener compatibility
• Off-corner loading design reduces fastener rounding during removal
• Full polish chrome finish resists corrosion and simplifies cleaning
• Large, hard-stamped markings for fast size identification
• Lightweight at 0.07 pounds for reduced hand fatigue during extended use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit addition for 1/4 inch drive socket sets and ratchet systems requiring a 12-point 15 MM socket.

Installation Notes

This socket is installed and removed by hand as part of a standard drive tool setup. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the drive before applying torque to prevent slippage or damage to the fastener. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use. No special certifications or power tools are required for standard hand-drive operation.
