Apex 80451 Torx Bit Socket 3/8 Drive T40

Product Description

The APEX 80451 is a T40 Torx bit socket designed for 3/8 inch drive ratchets and torque wrenches. The socket measures 0.788 inches at the bit tip and 1.85 inches in overall length. It is manufactured from S2 alloy steel, which delivers higher impact and torsional strength compared to standard chrome-vanadium alternatives. The full polish chrome finish resists rust and corrosion and wipes clean quickly after use. This socket is sold individually and suits professional mechanics, equipment technicians, and maintenance tradespeople who work with Torx fasteners regularly in demanding service environments.

The 80451 is suited for automotive, industrial, and general mechanical applications where T40 Torx fasteners are common. Typical use cases include drivetrain components, brake assemblies, engine bay hardware, and commercial equipment panels. The 3/8 inch drive interface is compatible with standard 3/8 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches found in most professional tool sets.

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit bit socket for use with 3/8 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches requiring a T40 Torx interface.

Installation Notes

Seat the socket fully onto the drive before applying torque to prevent rounding the drive tang or fastener head. Always verify the Torx size matches the fastener before applying load. De-energize or lock out equipment before working on fasteners in live mechanical or electrical assemblies. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use and remove from service if damage is found.
