Apex 80379 Socket 3/8 in Drive 6 Point 11 Mm Chrome

Product Description

The APEX 80379 is a 3/8 inch drive, 6-point, 11 MM chrome socket designed for professional fastener work across a wide range of trade and mechanical applications. Built with a full polish chrome finish, it resists corrosion and cleans easily in shop environments. Large, hard-stamped size markings allow for fast identification in a tool bag or socket rail. The off-corner loading design transfers torque to the flat faces of fasteners rather than the corners, reducing the risk of rounding and extending the service life of both the socket and the fastener. HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and general mechanical trades will find this socket a reliable everyday driver.

This socket suits residential and light commercial service work where a 3/8 inch drive is the preferred drive size. It is a standard-length 11 MM socket suited for metric fastener applications on equipment panels, conduit fittings, pipe brackets, and mechanical assemblies. The 6-point geometry provides a secure grip on hex fasteners in tight or accessible locations alike.

Key Features

• 3/8 inch drive accepts standard 3/8 inch ratchets, extensions, and adapters
• 6-point design for maximum contact on hex fastener flats
• Off-corner loading reduces fastener rounding under high torque
• Full polish chrome finish for corrosion resistance and easy cleaning
• Hard-stamped 11 MM size marking for quick identification

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 3/8 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches that accept 6-point sockets in metric sizing.

Installation Notes

This socket is installed and removed by hand on a compatible 3/8 inch drive ratchet or torque wrench. Always confirm the socket is fully seated on the drive before applying torque. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use and replace if deformation is visible. No power tools should be used with hand-rated chrome sockets unless the tool and socket are both rated for impact use.
