Apex 84140 Impact Socket 1/4 in Drive 6 Point

Product Description

The APEX 84140 is a 1/4 inch drive, 6-point impact socket built from chrome molybdenum alloy steel for high-strength performance under impact tool loads. The manganese phosphate coating resists corrosion in demanding shop and field environments. Laser-etched markings provide high visibility for quick size identification, and a secondary hard-stamped size marking ensures the label stays readable over the life of the tool. The socket uses off-corner loading geometry to reduce the risk of rounding fastener heads during high-torque applications. At 0.08 pounds, it is a lightweight addition to any impact drive set.

This socket is suited for automotive, mechanical, and general trade use wherever a 1/4 inch drive impact tool is the fastening platform. The 6-point design provides a secure grip on hex fasteners and is appropriate for both hand-drive and pneumatic or cordless impact applications. Mechanics, service technicians, and maintenance professionals will find this socket useful across a range of light-duty fastening tasks requiring precise fit and corrosion-resistant performance.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by a qualified mechanic or service technician familiar with impact tooling. Always confirm the socket drive size matches the impact tool before use. Do not use impact sockets with non-impact hand ratchets beyond their rated capacity. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use and replace if damaged.
