Apex 80470 Bit Socket 3/8 in Drive Pozidriv 0.591 in

Product Description

The APEX 80470 is a 3/8 inch drive Pozidriv bit socket designed for professional fastening applications requiring precise torque transfer and reliable tip engagement. The base socket is constructed from heat-treated alloy steel for structural durability and extended tool life. The bit itself is manufactured from S2 steel, a high-strength alloy commonly specified for impact-rated and high-torque screwdriver bits. At 0.591 inches in tip size and 1.653 inches in length, this socket fits standard 3/8 inch drive ratchets and extensions. It is sold individually and suited for use by mechanics, electricians, plumbers, and general trade professionals who work with Pozidriv fasteners regularly.

This bit socket is applicable in residential and commercial service work where Pozidriv fasteners appear in electrical enclosures, equipment panels, HVAC components, and general mechanical assemblies. The 3/8 inch drive sizing makes it compatible with mid-range drive tools commonly found in professional service kits. The Pozidriv tip geometry provides improved cam-out resistance compared to standard Phillips tips, making it well suited for high-torque or repetitive fastening tasks in tight or awkward installation spaces.

Key Features

• Heat-treated alloy steel base socket for durability and long service life
• S2 steel bit construction for maximum strength under high-torque conditions
• Pozidriv tip profile with improved cam-out resistance versus standard Phillips
• 3/8 inch drive accepts standard ratchets, torque wrenches, and extensions
• Compact 1.653 inch length suits confined fastening locations

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 3/8 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches. Compatible with Pozidriv fasteners in residential and commercial applications.

Installation Notes

Install and remove using a 3/8 inch drive ratchet or torque wrench. Ensure the bit tip is fully seated into the fastener recess before applying torque to reduce tip and fastener wear. De-energize any electrical equipment before accessing fastened enclosures or panels. Inspect the S2 bit tip periodically for wear and replace the socket if rounding or deformation is observed.
