Apex 80460 External Torx Socket 3/8 Drive E10

Product Description

The APEX 80460 is a 3/8 inch drive external Torx socket in size E10, finished in black oxide for corrosion resistance. It is designed for use with manual drive tools only — not intended for impact use. The black oxide coating reduces surface rust in typical shop and field conditions. Weighing 0.12 pounds and measuring 1.24 inches in length, this compact socket fits cleanly into a standard 3/8 inch drive ratchet or breaker bar. It is suited for automotive, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trade work wherever external Torx fasteners are encountered.

External Torx sockets are used when a fastener has a raised star-pattern drive on its head rather than an internal recess. The E10 size is common on automotive components, access panels, electrical enclosures, and mechanical assemblies across residential and light commercial applications. This socket is sold individually and is compatible with any standard 3/8 inch drive manual ratchet, extension, or torque wrench.

Compatibility

Installation Notes

This socket is intended for installation and removal of external Torx fasteners using manual drive tools only. Do not use with impact wrenches or pneumatic drivers, as this may damage the socket or fastener. Ensure the correct E10 size is confirmed before applying torque to avoid rounding the fastener head. Standard hand-tool safety practices apply.
