Gearwrench 80177D Torx Bit Socket 1/4 Inch Drive T30

Product Description

The GEARWRENCH 80177D is a 1/4 inch drive T30 Torx bit socket designed for fastener removal and installation in tight-tolerance applications. Built from steel with a chrome finish, it delivers the corrosion resistance and durability expected in a professional hand tool. The bit length measures 0.984 inches, keeping the profile compact for use in confined spaces. This socket meets ANSI and ASME standards, making it a reliable choice for technicians who work to code. HVAC, electrical, and mechanical service professionals will find this size common in equipment panels, motor housings, and control assemblies.

The 80177D fits standard 1/4 inch drive ratchets, extension bars, and adapters. T30 Torx fasteners appear frequently in residential and light commercial HVAC equipment, electrical enclosures, and appliance service. The compact bit length suits both bench work and in-field service calls where clearance is limited. It is packaged and sold as a single socket, making it straightforward to replace a missing or worn size in an existing set.
