Apex UG-MB-10MM23 Deep Power Socket 3/8 Drive 10mm

Product Description

The APEX UG-MB-10MM23 is a 10mm deep power socket designed for use with 3/8 inch square drive tools. Built with a 6-point hex geometry, it delivers firm contact on fastener flats and reduces the risk of rounding under high torque. At 2.03 inches overall length, this deep socket provides the reach needed to engage recessed or stud-mounted fasteners that standard-depth sockets cannot access. The non-magnetic construction and protective cover finish make it suitable for use in environments where magnetic interference is a concern. Licensed trades and industrial technicians working in HVAC, electrical, and mechanical service applications will find this socket appropriate for both impact and ratchet drive tools.

This socket is suited for professional and industrial fastening tasks where a 10mm metric fastener and a 3/8 inch drive tool are specified. The deep configuration handles bolts with exposed threading, long studs, or recessed fastener heads. It is commonly used during equipment installation, panel work, and mechanical assembly where metric hardware is standard. The 6-point design concentrates force on fastener flats rather than corners, making it the preferred choice over 12-point sockets when working with worn or tight hardware.

Installation Notes

Installation and use of this socket should be performed by qualified technicians familiar with proper torque tool operation. Ensure the drive tool is rated for the torque demands of the application before use. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use and replace if damage is found. Secure the socket fully onto the drive tool before engaging the fastener to prevent slippage.
