Gearwrench 84751 Bolt Extractor Socket 1/4 in 3/8 Drive

Product Description

The GEARWRENCH 84751 is a bolt extractor socket designed to remove damaged, rounded, or stuck fasteners with a 1/4 inch bolt head. It accepts a 3/8 inch drive ratchet and measures 1.377 inches in overall length, making it compact enough for tight-access applications. This type of extractor socket is used by mechanics, maintenance technicians, and service professionals who regularly encounter fasteners that standard sockets can no longer grip. The 84751 weighs 0.07 pounds and fits neatly into a standard socket set tray.

This bolt extractor socket is suited for automotive, light industrial, and general mechanical service work where 1/4 inch fasteners have been rounded or damaged beyond reach of conventional tools. It is intended for use with 3/8 inch drive ratchets and extensions already in a technician's kit, making it a direct add-on to existing tooling setups. Residential and commercial maintenance applications are both within scope wherever small fasteners are found on panels, covers, and mechanical assemblies.
