Disston Company 504803 1/4 Inch Socket Adapter Hex Shank

Product Description

The DISSTON COMPANY 504803 is a 1/4 inch socket adapter with a 1/4 inch hex shank designed to convert a standard power drill or cordless screwdriver into a power socket wrench. The hex shank seats directly into any drill chuck or quick-release bit holder, allowing the technician to drive sockets with rotary tool power. This adapter is a compact, single-piece accessory suited for fastener work in tight or repetitive-task applications across HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and general mechanical service work. It measures approximately 5.38 inches in length and weighs under 1 pound, making it easy to carry in a tool pouch or service kit.

This adapter is well suited for residential and light commercial service calls where a dedicated power ratchet is not on hand. It allows a cordless drill already on the job to serve double duty on socket-drive fasteners. Typical applications include panel fasteners, equipment mounting hardware, and general mechanical assembly where a 1/4 inch drive socket is the correct tool. The compact profile allows use in moderately confined spaces around equipment cabinets and access panels.

Installation Notes
