Apex SA-C-38-15M Hand Socket 3/8 Drive 15mm 6-point

Product Description

The APEX SA-C-38-15M is a 15 mm, 6-point hand socket designed for 3/8 inch square drive ratchets and breaker bars. Built from alloy steel with a bright, uncoated finish, this socket is tether-capable for use in environments where dropped-tool prevention is required. At 56 mm (approximately 2-13/16 inches) overall length, it fits standard socket trays and tool rolls. It meets ASME B107.2, B107.33M, and B107.110 standards, making it appropriate for professional-grade hand tool applications. Licensed trades, maintenance technicians, and mechanical contractors will find it suitable for fastener work across a broad range of metric hardware.

This socket is intended for metric fastener applications using a 3/8 inch drive. The 6-point contact geometry provides full-face engagement on hex fasteners, reducing the risk of rounding at the corners under load. The tether-capable design accommodates safety lanyards, making it well-suited for elevated work, aerial platforms, or any job site with a tool-drop safety requirement. It is packaged and sold individually.

Installation Notes

Installation and removal of fasteners should be performed with the appropriate torque for the fastener and application as specified by the equipment manufacturer. Inspect the socket for cracks, chips, or deformation before use and remove from service if any damage is found. Do not use hand sockets with impact drivers unless the socket is impact-rated. Secure the tether attachment point before working at height if using this socket in a tether-capable configuration.
