Apex 80862 Socket 3/4 Inch Drive 12 Point Sae

Product Description

The APEX 80862 is a 3/4 inch drive, 12-point SAE socket sized at 2-1/8 inches, constructed from alloy steel with a full polish chrome finish. It is designed for professional use in heavy-duty fastening applications where durability and access are critical. Large, hard-stamped size markings make quick identification straightforward in busy shop or field environments. The off-corner loading design transfers force to the flats of the fastener rather than the corners, reducing the risk of rounding and extending fastener life. Weighing 1.804 pounds and measuring 2.913 inches in length, this socket suits demanding torque applications across a range of industries.

This socket is used in mechanical, industrial, and maintenance applications where a 3/4 inch drive tool is required. It fits standard 3/4 inch drive ratchets, breaker bars, and torque wrenches. Typical install scenarios include heavy equipment service, fleet maintenance, structural fastening, and commercial HVAC or plumbing equipment assembly. The 12-point geometry provides more engagement positions in tight spaces compared to a 6-point design, making it useful in confined or overhead work areas.

Key Features

• 3/4 inch drive, 12-point SAE design for versatile fastener engagement
• Off-corner loading reduces fastener rounding under high torque
• Full polish chrome alloy steel construction for corrosion resistance and durability
• Large hard-stamped markings for fast, reliable size identification
• 2-1/8 inch socket size suited to heavy-duty fastening tasks

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 3/4 inch drive SAE socket compatible with 3/4 inch drive ratchets, torque wrenches, and breaker bars used in professional mechanical and industrial service applications.

Installation Notes

This socket is installed by qualified mechanics and technicians using standard 3/4 inch drive hand tools. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque to prevent slipping. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before use, particularly in high-torque applications. Do not use with impact drivers unless the socket is impact-rated for that purpose.
