Built from alloy steel with a chrome-plated finish, it drives 5\/16 inch fasteners with a hex drive interface. The 6-point design concentrates torque on the flat faces of the fastener, reducing the risk of rounding. At 0.984 inches in overall length, this is a standard-depth socket suited for general mechanical work. The tether-capable design supports drop prevention in elevated or safety-critical work environments. Licensed trades and general mechanics install this socket across automotive, HVAC, plumbing, and industrial maintenance applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis socket fits standard 3\/8 inch drive tool sets and is appropriate for both residential and light commercial service work. The 5\/16 inch size is common in sheet metal fastener applications, equipment access panels, and general mechanical assemblies. The tether-capable feature makes it suitable for work at height where tool drop is a safety concern, such as rooftop HVAC installations or elevated mechanical platforms. It meets ANSI and ASME B107.1 standards and is SAE-rated for inch-based fastener systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5\/16 inch socket size with 3\/8 inch hex drive interface\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-point geometry drives fastener flats, reducing rounding risk\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlloy steel construction with chrome-plated corrosion-resistant finish\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTether-capable design for drop prevention in elevated work environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStandard length at 0.984 inches overall for general-purpose use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI and ASME B107.1 standards with lifetime replacement warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatible with standard 3\/8 inch drive ratchets, breaker bars, and extensions.

Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener drive before applying torque to avoid slippage. When used in tethered applications, attach an approved tether lanyard to the tether point before use. Inspect the socket and drive square for wear before each use in high-torque applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSocket Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5\/16 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Points\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.984 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chrome-Plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInsulated\u003c\/strong\u003e: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTether Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Tether Capable\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI, ASME B107.1, SAE\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.04 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty\u003c\/strong\u003e: Lifetime Replacement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: GEARWRENCH\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 80351\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GEARWRENCH","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51539027067186,"sku":"80351","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/432f1d608fbb765a0d4ccc5cff49b3d2.jpg?v=1785833249","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gearwrench-80351-3-8-drive-5-16-in-6-point-hand-socket","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
