Gearwrench 80388S-06 3/8 in Drive 6 Pt 6 Mm Chrome Socket

Product Description

The GEARWRENCH 80388S-06 is a 6 MM, 6-point, 3/8 inch drive socket finished in full polish chrome. It is built for professional use in automotive, mechanical, and general trade applications where consistent fastener engagement and durability are required. The off-corner loading design places force on the flats of the fastener rather than the corners, reducing the risk of rounding. Large, hard-stamped size markings make quick identification straightforward in a busy shop environment. At 1.81 inches in length and 0.07 pounds, this socket is a lightweight, single-unit tool suited for everyday service work.

This socket is intended for use with standard 3/8 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches. It is well suited for automotive technicians, maintenance mechanics, and professional tradespeople working on fasteners requiring a 6 MM metric fit. The full polish chrome finish resists corrosion and simplifies cleanup after use in oily or dirty conditions. It is sold individually and fits into standard socket organization systems.

Installation Notes

Ensure the drive tool is powered down or the equipment is de-energized and secured before beginning fastener work. Verify the socket seats fully on the fastener before applying torque to prevent slippage or rounding. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use and remove from service if damage is found. Follow applicable workplace safety standards and manufacturer torque guidelines for the specific fastener application.
