Milwaukee Tool 45-34-8031 Deep Hand Socket 3/8 in Drive

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE TOOL 45-34-8031 is a deep hand socket designed for use with a 3/8 inch square drive. It features a 6-point internal profile that delivers full-face contact with fastener flats, reducing the chance of rounding during high-torque applications. The chrome finish provides corrosion resistance for long-term durability in demanding shop and field environments. Measuring 4.9 inches in height and weighing 0.5 pounds, this socket is sized for standard fractional inch fastener work. It is intended for professional use by mechanics, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and electricians who require a reliable deep-reach socket for accessing recessed fasteners.

This deep socket is suited for both residential and commercial service applications where standard-length sockets cannot reach fasteners seated deep in housings, panels, or assemblies. The 3/8 inch drive size makes it compatible with a wide range of ratchets, extensions, and breaker bars commonly found in trade tool inventories. Fractional inch sizing places it in typical North American fastener applications across mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trades. The socket is not tether capable and is intended for standard non-tethered tool environments.
