Gearwrench 80396S-06 Socket 3/8 in Drive 6 Point 14 Mm

Product Description

The GEARWRENCH 80396S-06 is a 14 MM, 6-point, 3/8 inch drive chrome socket designed for professional use in automotive, mechanical, and general trade applications. Constructed from alloy steel with a full polish chrome finish, it delivers the strength and durability required for repetitive fastening tasks. The off-corner loading design applies force to the flats of fasteners rather than the corners, reducing the risk of rounding and extending fastener life. Large, hard-stamped size markings make quick identification easy in a busy shop or field environment.

This socket is suited for automotive technicians, fleet mechanics, and general maintenance professionals who need reliable hand tools for metric fastener work. It fits standard 3/8 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches. The 6-point geometry provides a secure grip on hex fasteners and is preferred in situations where torque control and fastener integrity are priorities over speed.

Key Features

• Off-corner loading design reduces fastener rounding and improves durability under torque
• Full polish chrome finish resists corrosion and cleans easily
• Large, hard-stamped 14 MM marking for fast size identification
• 6-point socket geometry for maximum contact and reduced slippage on hex fasteners
• 3/8 inch drive fits a wide range of standard ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches

Compatibility

Designed as a standard OEM-style replacement or addition for 3/8 inch drive socket sets used with metric hex fasteners.

Installation Notes

Installation of this socket requires a compatible 3/8 inch drive ratchet, breaker bar, or torque wrench.

Follow applicable torque specifications for the fastener and application as specified by the equipment manufacturer.
