Apex 80378 Socket 3/8 Drive 6 Point 10 Mm Chrome

Product Description

The APEX 80378 is a 3/8 inch drive, 6-point, 10 MM full polish chrome socket designed for professional trade use in automotive, mechanical, and general service applications. The off-corner loading design transfers force to the flats of fasteners 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 allow for fast identification in a busy toolbox or service environment. At 0.984 inches in length and weighing 0.04 pounds, this is a standard-length socket built for everyday use.

This socket is suited for automotive technicians, industrial mechanics, and service professionals who need a reliable 3/8 inch drive socket in 10 MM. It is appropriate for use in engine bays, chassis work, equipment maintenance, and general assembly tasks where a compact, durable socket is required. The full polish chrome finish resists corrosion and makes cleaning straightforward after use in oily or greasy environments.
