Apex cdds2n 6-point Deep Sae Socket 1/4 in Drive 7/32 in

Product Description

The APEX cdds2n is a 1/4 inch drive, 6-point deep SAE socket sized at 7/32 inches, built for professional tradespeople who need reliable fastener engagement in tight or recessed applications. Manufactured from Crestoloy alloy steel, this socket is nickel chrome plated for corrosion resistance and a durable finish. The off-corner load design transfers torque to the flat faces of the fastener rather than the corners, which reduces the risk of rounding fastener heads. It meets or exceeds ASME performance requirements, making it suitable for jobsite and shop use by electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general contractors.

The cdds2n is intended for use with 1/4 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches in both residential and commercial service environments. The deep socket profile provides the reach needed to engage fasteners on threaded studs, long bolts, or recessed hex heads where a standard-depth socket would not seat fully. This socket is well suited for panel work, equipment service, and general mechanical applications where SAE sizing is required.

Key Features

• Off-corner load geometry reduces fastener rounding under torque
• Crestoloy alloy steel construction for strength and durability
• Nickel chrome plating provides corrosion resistance and lasting finish
• 6-point design maximizes contact area on fastener flats
• Deep profile reaches recessed and stud-mounted fasteners
• Meets or exceeds ASME requirements

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitment for 1/4 inch drive socket sets and ratchet systems requiring SAE deep sockets.

Installation Notes

Installation and use should be performed by qualified tradespeople familiar with hand tool safety practices. Always ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque to prevent slippage or fastener damage. Do not use impact-rated sockets interchangeably with standard hand-drive sockets unless the tool is rated for impact use. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use.
