It accepts a 3 mm hex bit and delivers a secure, positive engagement on hex fasteners in tight or recessed locations. The socket measures 1-17\/32 inches overall length with a 0.984 inch bit length, making it well suited for close-quarters fastener work. Constructed from steel with a chrome finish, the 80163 meets ANSI and ASME B107.5M standards. It is a compact, single-piece hand tool used by mechanics, HVAC technicians, electricians, and plumbers wherever hex-drive fasteners appear in equipment assemblies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 80163 fits standard 1\/4 inch drive tool setups and is used across residential and light commercial service work. Typical applications include equipment panels, appliance assemblies, electrical enclosures, and HVAC unit fasteners that require a 3 mm hex drive. The compact overall length allows use in confined spaces where larger sockets or L-keys cannot fit. This socket is appropriate for both bench work and field service calls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch drive compatible with standard ratchets, extensions, and adapters\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3 mm hex bit size for precise engagement on metric hex fasteners\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e0.984 inch bit length provides good reach into recessed fastener heads\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1-17\/32 inch overall length suits confined-space service work\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSteel construction with chrome finish for corrosion resistance and durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI and ASME B107.5M standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and service socket for use with any standard 1\/4 inch drive hand tool system requiring a 3 mm hex bit socket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis socket is intended for hand tool use by qualified trade professionals.
