Apex 80467 Bit Socket 3/8 Inch Drive Phillips

Product Description

The APEX 80467 is a standard-length bit socket designed for 3/8 inch drive ratchets and impact-rated hand tools. The socket base is constructed from heat-treated alloy steel for durability under repeated torque cycles. The Phillips screwdriver bit is machined from S2 steel, which provides high impact resistance and extended service life compared to standard chrome alloy bits. At 1.653 inches in length and weighing 0.09 pounds, this is a compact, single-piece bit socket suited for fastener work in confined spaces. Licensed tradespeople and experienced DIYers use this type of socket when a standard screwdriver does not provide adequate torque or reach.

This bit socket is appropriate for residential and light commercial applications where Phillips-head fasteners are driven with a 3/8 inch drive ratchet, torque wrench, or compatible hand tool. Typical use cases include electrical panel work, HVAC cabinet assembly, plumbing fixture installation, and general equipment maintenance where consistent bit engagement and socket drive flexibility are required. The standard-length profile suits most open-access fastening scenarios.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed for use with 3/8 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches accepting standard square-drive bit sockets. Fits Phillips-head fasteners in the applicable tip size range.

Installation Notes

Installation of this bit socket requires no special tools beyond the 3/8 inch drive ratchet or handle it is paired with. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the drive before applying torque to prevent slippage or fastener damage. Always de-energize or shut off equipment before driving fasteners on electrical or mechanical assemblies. Follow applicable trade codes and manufacturer torque guidance for the fastener and assembly being serviced.
