The set uses a 3/8-inch drive and covers 13 inch-measurement sizes ranging from 1/4 inch to 1 inch. Each socket features a 6-point opening for solid contact on fastener flats, reducing the risk of rounding during high-torque applications.

This socket set is suited for residential and commercial service work across mechanical trades including HVAC, plumbing, and general equipment maintenance. The 3/8-inch drive size is a versatile choice for mid-range fastener work, compatible with 3/8-inch drive ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches.

Installation Notes

Sockets should be fully seated on the drive tool before applying torque to prevent slippage or damage to the fastener. Inspect each socket for cracks or wear before use, and do not use damaged sockets. Chrome-finished sockets are intended for hand-tool use only and should not be used with impact drivers. Store on the provided clip rail to maintain set integrity and prevent loss of individual pieces.
