Apex 80552 Socket Set 3/8 Drive 6 Point Metric 14 Pc

Product Description

The APEX 80552 is a 14-piece, 3/8 inch drive, 6-point metric standard-length socket set built for trade professionals who need reliable fastener engagement in tight service environments. Sockets are manufactured from alloy steel for maximum durability and strength. The 6-point profile delivers full-surface contact on fastener flats, reducing the risk of rounding. An off-corner loading design further protects fastener heads during high-torque applications. A chamfered socket opening guides seating quickly, even in awkward positions. A storage rail is included for organized transport and bench storage.

This socket set is suited for automotive, HVAC, plumbing, and general mechanical service work where metric fasteners are standard. The 3/8 inch drive size covers a broad range of mid-torque applications and pairs with standard 3/8 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and adapters. The 14-piece set covers sizes from 6mm through 19mm, providing continuous coverage across the most commonly encountered metric fastener range in residential and light commercial service work.
