Milwaukee Tool 45-34-8022 3/8 Drive 6 Point Metric Socket

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE TOOL 45-34-8022 is a metric standard hand socket designed for 3/8 inch square drive ratchets and extension bars. Built from chrome material with a corrosion-resistant chrome finish, it features a 6-point design that maximizes contact on fastener flats and reduces the risk of rounding during high-torque applications. The standard length profile fits most production and service environments where clearance is not a concern. This socket is suited for professional tradespeople who need reliable, durable hand tools for mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, or electrical service work.

The 45-34-8022 is intended for use in general trade and maintenance applications requiring metric fastener engagement. The 3/8 inch drive size is a common choice for medium-duty fastening tasks across residential and light commercial service work. It is compatible with any standard 3/8 inch square drive ratchet, breaker bar, or torque wrench. The 6-point socket geometry is preferred in professional settings where fastener condition is a concern, as it applies force to the flat sides rather than the corners.
