Apex 80506D Socket 3/8 in Drive 12 Point 7/8 in Sae

Product Description

The APEX 80506D is a 3/8 inch drive, 12-point chrome socket designed for SAE fastener sizes at 7/8 inch. Constructed from alloy steel with a full polish chrome finish, this socket is built for repeated use in demanding trade and service environments. Large, hard-stamped size markings make quick identification straightforward in a cluttered tool tray. The off-corner loading design places force on the flat faces of fasteners rather than the corners, reducing the risk of rounding fastener heads under high torque.

This socket is suited for mechanical service work across HVAC equipment installation, plumbing rough-in, electrical panel mounting, and general equipment maintenance. The 3/8 inch drive fits standard 3/8 inch ratchets, extensions, and drive tools common in most service kits. At 1.102 inches in length, it is a standard-depth socket appropriate for exposed fastener applications where a deep-reach socket is not required. Sold individually.

Key Features

• 3/8 inch square drive compatible with standard ratchets and extensions
• 12-point design provides more engagement positions in tight spaces
• Off-corner loading reduces fastener rounding under load
• Full polish chrome alloy steel construction for corrosion resistance and durability

Compatibility

Installation Notes

This socket is installed by hand-fit onto any 3/8 inch square drive tool. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the drive before applying torque to prevent slippage. Use with appropriately rated drive tools and torque wrenches per the fastener specification for the application. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before use on critical fasteners.
