Gearwrench 80115S-06 Socket 1/4 in Drive 6 Point 3/16 in

Product Description

The GEARWRENCH 80115S-06 is a 3/16 inch, 6-point socket with a 1/4 inch drive, built from alloy steel with a full polish chrome finish. It is designed for professional use in automotive, mechanical, and general trade applications where secure fastener engagement and durability are required. Off-corner loading directs force onto the flats of the fastener rather than the corners, reducing the risk of rounding. Large, hard-stamped size markings make identification fast in a cluttered tool bag or on a busy job site. At 1.25 inches in length, this is a standard-length socket suited for everyday fastening tasks.

This socket is a standard-length 1/4 inch drive option intended for light to medium duty fastening in confined spaces where a compact tool profile is needed. It fits common applications in HVAC equipment access panels, electrical enclosures, plumbing fixture work, and general mechanical assembly. The 6-point geometry is the preferred configuration when working with hex fasteners that require controlled torque without slippage. Sold individually, it integrates directly into any 1/4 inch drive ratchet, extension, or torque wrench setup.

Key Features

• Off-corner loading design reduces fastener rounding by applying force to flats, not corners
• Full polish chrome finish over alloy steel construction for corrosion resistance and durability
• 6-point geometry provides a secure grip on standard hex fasteners
• Hard-stamped size markings for fast identification during use
• Standard length at 1.25 inches suits general-purpose fastening in accessible locations
• 1/4 inch drive fits standard ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches

Compatibility

Designed for use with any standard 1/4 inch drive ratchet, extension bar, or torque wrench. Compatible with 3/16 inch hex fasteners in 6-point configuration.

Installation Notes

Install and remove using a 1/4 inch drive ratchet or torque wrench appropriate for the fastener application. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque to prevent slippage or rounding. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before use, and do not use impact drivers unless the socket is rated for impact use. Keep the socket dry and free of debris for reliable engagement.
