Gearwrench 80122S-06 Socket 1/4 in Drive 6 Point 7/16 in

Product Description

The GEARWRENCH 80122S-06 is a 7/16 inch, 6-point socket with a 1/4 inch drive, constructed from alloy steel with a full polish chrome finish. At 1.25 inches in length and 0.06 pounds, it is a compact standard-length socket designed for use in tight spaces where access and speed matter. 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 on hex fasteners. Large, hard-stamped size markings make quick identification straightforward in a tool bag or on a workbench. Licensed electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general mechanical trades use sockets of this type daily on equipment fasteners, panel hardware, and piping connections.

This socket is suited for residential and light commercial service work where a 1/4 inch drive set is the preferred tool for smaller fasteners. Standard-length 1/4 inch drive sockets fit most common 1/4 inch ratchets, extensions, and flex handles. The 7/16 inch size is a common fastener dimension found on electrical panels, HVAC access covers, condensate pan hardware, and plumbing fixture mounting. The alloy steel construction handles the torque demands of typical hand-tool use without deforming under normal service conditions.

Key Features

• Off-corner loading design applies force to fastener flats, reducing rounding on worn or tight fasteners
• 6-point geometry provides a secure, full-contact grip on hex fasteners
• Full polish chrome finish on alloy steel for corrosion resistance and easy cleaning
• Large, hard-stamped markings for fast size identification
• Standard length at 1.25 inches suits most open-access fastener applications
• Lightweight at 0.06 pounds for reduced hand fatigue during extended use

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1/4 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and accessories. Fits any tool with a 1/4 inch square drive interface.

Installation Notes

Always de-energize electrical equipment and shut off gas or water supply before performing any fastener work on live systems. Use the correct drive torque for the fastener being serviced — do not use 1/4 inch drive sockets with impact drivers unless the socket is rated for impact use. Inspect the socket for cracks or deformation before each use and replace if damaged. General mechanical work with hand sockets typically falls under applicable NEC, IFGC, or IPC guidelines depending on the system being serviced.
