Gearwrench 80118S-06 Socket 1/4 in Drive 6 Pt 9/32 in

Product Description

The GEARWRENCH 80118S-06 is a 9/32 inch, 6-point, 1/4 inch drive socket machined from alloy steel with a full polish chrome finish. At 1.25 inches in length and 0.03 pounds, it is a standard-length socket designed for general fastener work in tight spaces where a compact drive tool is required. The 6-point geometry and off-corner loading design apply force to the flats of the fastener rather than the corners, reducing the risk of rounding. Large, hard-stamped size markings make it easy to identify quickly in a tray or bag. Licensed electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general mechanics keep sockets like this in rotation for panel work, fixture installation, and equipment service.

This socket fits standard 1/4 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches. The standard length suits most surface-level fastener applications where clearance is not a limiting factor. The 9/32 inch size is commonly encountered on small fasteners in electrical panels, HVAC controls, and light mechanical assemblies. Sold individually, it can supplement an existing socket set or replace a lost or worn piece.

Key Features

• 6-point off-corner loading reduces fastener rounding during removal and installation
• Full polish chrome finish resists corrosion and simplifies cleaning
• Large hard-stamped markings for fast size identification
• Alloy steel construction for strength under torque
• Standard 1/4 inch drive fits common ratchets, extensions, and adapters
• Compact standard length at 1.25 inches suits confined work areas

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 1/4 inch drive socket compatible with any 1/4 inch drive ratchet, torque wrench, extension, or adapter following standard ASME drive-square dimensions.

Installation Notes

Installation and removal of fasteners with this socket should be performed by a qualified tradesperson familiar with appropriate torque requirements for the application. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying load to avoid slippage. De-energize electrical equipment and shut off fluid or gas supply before working on any system components. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before use and replace if damage is found.
