The ball end design allows the socket to engage fasteners at an offset angle, making it useful in confined spaces where a straight-on approach is not possible. Built from steel with a chrome finish, the 80441 measures 5-63\/64 inches in overall length with a bit length of 5.196 inches. It drives 3 mm hex fasteners and meets ANSI and ASME standards. This socket is intended for professional mechanics, maintenance technicians, and service pros who regularly work with hex-head fasteners in tight access areas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe 80441 suits applications in automotive, industrial, and general mechanical maintenance where 3 mm hex fasteners are encountered. The 3\/8 inch drive keeps it compatible with a standard mid-size drive setup, balancing torque capacity with reach. The ball end geometry allows engagement at up to a 30-degree offset, which is particularly useful when fastener heads are partially obstructed by surrounding hardware or structure. This socket works across a wide range of tasks anywhere a 3 mm internal hex fastener needs to be driven or removed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBall end tip allows off-axis engagement for access in confined spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch drive compatible with standard mid-size ratchets and extensions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3 mm hex size for driving internal hex fasteners\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5.196 inch bit length provides extended reach\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChrome finish over steel construction for corrosion resistance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ANSI and ASME standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard fitment for 3\/8 inch drive tool sets requiring a 3 mm ball end hex bit socket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstall and remove using a 3\/8 inch drive ratchet, breaker bar, or extension. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque to avoid rounding the hex recess. When using the ball end at an offset angle, apply steady, controlled force as engagement surface area is reduced compared to straight-on use. Inspect the socket and fastener for wear before use to prevent slippage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHex Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5-63\/64 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBit Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.196 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSocket Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Ball End\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFinish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chrome\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: ANSI, ASME\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.13 pounds\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: 80441\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GEARWRENCH","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51540575322418,"sku":"80441","price":16.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/20d6e45d0c98eec83fc1d01bd0f140d9.jpg?v=1785858876","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gearwrench-80441-ball-end-hex-bit-socket-3-8-in-drive-3mm","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
