The socket is manufactured from Chrome Molybdenum Alloy Steel (Cr-Mo), a material chosen specifically for its high tensile strength and resistance to the stress of impact use. An off-corner loading design shifts contact away from fastener edges, reducing the risk of rounding under torque. A manganese phosphate coating provides a base layer of corrosion resistance, making the socket suitable for use in damp or outdoor service conditions. High-visibility laser-etched size markings and secondary hard stamping ensure the size designation remains legible throughout the life of the tool.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis socket is intended for use with 3\/8 inch drive impact wrenches and ratchets in automotive, mechanical, and general trade applications. It is appropriate for removing and installing standard SAE fasteners where a 5\/16 inch 6-point fit is required. The 6-point profile provides maximum surface contact on hex fasteners, reducing slip during high-torque impact use. This socket suits professional technicians, mechanics, and maintenance tradespeople working on vehicles, equipment, or structural assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChrome Molybdenum Alloy Steel (Cr-Mo) construction for high-strength impact-rated performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-point profile maximizes contact area on hex fasteners and reduces rounding risk\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOff-corner loading design reduces fastener rounding under torque\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eManganese phosphate coating resists corrosion in wet and outdoor conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eHigh-visibility laser-etched size markings for quick socket identification\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSecondary hard stamping provides a permanent backup size marking\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with standard 3\/8 inch drive impact wrenches, air ratchets, and hand ratchets.

Ensure the drive tool is rated for impact use before attaching this socket to an impact wrench. Verify the fastener size matches the socket before applying torque to avoid fastener damage. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use and remove from service if damage is found.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSocket Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Count\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6-point\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSocket Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Standard\u003c\/strong\u003e: SAE\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chrome Molybdenum Alloy Steel (Cr-Mo)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Manganese Phosphate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: APEX\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 84300n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"APEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233899774258,"sku":"84300N","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307626498.jpg?v=1780111619","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/apex-84300n-3-8-drive-6-point-impact-sae-socket-5-16-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
