Apex 80220 Deep Socket 1/4 in Drive 12 Point 3/16 in

Product Description

The APEX 80220 is a deep-length chrome socket designed for 1/4 inch drive ratchets and handles. Built from alloy steel with a full polish chrome finish, it features a 12-point design in a 3/16 inch size. The off-corner loading geometry applies force to the flats of fasteners rather than the corners, reducing the risk of rounding during removal or installation. Large hard-stamped size markings make quick identification straightforward in a tool tray or bag. This socket is used by mechanics, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and electricians who need reliable hand-tool access in tight or deep fastener locations.

The 80220 deep socket is suited for residential and commercial service work where standard-length sockets cannot reach recessed or long-shank fasteners. At 1.929 inches in length, the deep profile provides clearance for protruding bolt threads or studs. The 1/4 inch drive size makes it compatible with compact ratchets and extensions commonly used in panel work, equipment access covers, and light mechanical assemblies. It is sold individually.

Installation Notes

Ensure the drive ratchet or handle is rated for the torque required before use. Inspect the socket for cracks or chips before each use and remove from service if damage is found. Use the correct size socket for the fastener to prevent slippage and fastener damage.
