Gearwrench 80361 3/8 Drive 15/16 in 6 Point Hand Socket

Product Description

The GEARWRENCH 80361 is a standard-length, 6-point hand socket built for professional trades where fastener access, torque control, and tool accountability matter. Sized at 15/16 inches and designed for a 3/8 inch drive, it accepts standard square-drive ratchets, breaker bars, and extensions common across HVAC, plumbing, and electrical work. The alloy steel construction delivers the strength needed for repetitive high-torque applications, while the chrome-plated finish resists corrosion and simplifies cleanup on the job. At 1.161 inches in overall length, this is a compact, no-nonsense socket suited for confined fastener locations encountered during equipment installation and service.

This socket fits residential and commercial service scenarios where a 15/16 inch SAE fastener size appears — common on structural mounts, equipment frames, pipe hangers, and conduit supports. The tether-capable design makes it appropriate for elevated work or any jobsite where dropped tools create safety or liability concerns. It is sold individually and suits techs who need to replace a single socket or build out a custom set for a specific job scope.

Key Features

• 15/16 inch socket size on a 3/8 inch hex drive — standard SAE sizing for trade fasteners
• 6-point contact geometry reduces fastener rounding under high torque
• Alloy steel construction rated for heavy-duty professional use
• Chrome-plated finish provides corrosion resistance and easy surface cleaning
• Tether-capable design supports tool-tethering systems for elevated or confined-space work
• Meets ANSI and ASME B107.1 standards; backed by a lifetime replacement warranty

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 3/8 inch square-drive ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches commonly used in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general mechanical service work.

Installation Notes

Install and remove using a calibrated torque wrench or ratchet appropriate for the fastener specification of the equipment being serviced. Always de-energize electrical systems and isolate mechanical equipment before accessing fasteners in live panels or pressurized assemblies. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use, and do not use impact drivers with a socket that is not rated for impact service.
