Gearwrench 80453 Torx Bit Socket 3/8 Inch Drive T47

Product Description

The GEARWRENCH 80453 is a hand Torx bit socket designed for T47 fasteners on a 3/8 inch drive. It delivers direct torque to Torx-head fasteners in engine assemblies, transmission work, body panels, and electronic component mounting where T47 drive points appear. The socket measures 1.84 inches overall length with a 1.81 inch bit length, giving enough reach for recessed fastener locations. Finished in chrome over a steel body, it meets ANSI and ASME standards. Mechanics, automotive technicians, and equipment service professionals use this socket with any standard 3/8 inch drive ratchet, breaker bar, or torque wrench.

This socket is suited for automotive and light industrial applications where T47 Torx fasteners are specified. Common install scenarios include drivetrain component service, suspension hardware, and interior panel fasteners that use larger Torx profiles. The 3/8 inch drive size fits mid-range ratchets commonly found in professional tool sets, making it a practical addition to any service bay toolkit handling late-model vehicles or machinery with Torx-standard fastener patterns.

Key Features

• T47 Torx bit profile for direct engagement on T47 fasteners
• 3/8 inch drive compatible with standard ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches
• Chrome finish over steel construction for corrosion resistance
• Meets ANSI and ASME standards for dimensional and performance compliance
• 1.81 inch bit length provides reach into recessed fastener locations
• Compact overall length of 1.84 inches keeps the profile manageable in tight spaces

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 3/8 inch drive Torx bit socket for use with any 3/8 inch drive ratchet, extension, or torque wrench accepting T47 Torx drive fasteners.

Installation Notes

Power down or de-energize any system before removing fasteners on electrical or electronic assemblies. Verify the T47 profile seats fully in the fastener head before applying torque to avoid rounding the drive points. Use with a calibrated torque wrench when the manufacturer specifies a torque value for the fastener being serviced. Inspect the socket for wear or cracking before each use and replace if any deformation is observed.
