Gearwrench 80397S-06 Socket 3/8 in Drive 6 Point 15 Mm

Product Description

The GEARWRENCH 80397S-06 is a 3/8 inch drive, 6-point socket sized for 15 MM fasteners, constructed from alloy steel with a full polish chrome finish. The off-corner loading design applies force to the flats of the fastener rather than the corners, which reduces the chance of rounding fastener heads during removal or installation. Large, hard-stamped size markings make quick identification possible in a busy tool tray or socket rail. At 0.16 pounds and 1.81 inches in length, this is a standard-length socket suited for everyday professional use.

This socket is appropriate for automotive, HVAC, plumbing, and general mechanical work wherever a 15 MM fastener is encountered. The 3/8 inch drive size makes it compatible with a wide range of ratchets, extensions, and drive tools commonly found in trade and shop environments. It is sold individually and is well suited for technicians building out a metric socket set or replacing a single worn piece.

Installation Notes

This socket is installed and removed by hand as part of normal hand-tool use. Ensure the drive tool and socket are fully seated before applying torque to avoid slippage.
