Built to a 5 mm socket size with a 1\/4 inch drive and a 6-point internal geometry, it delivers firm, even torque transfer to hex fasteners while reducing the risk of rounding. The chrome-plated finish resists corrosion and makes the socket easy to clean after use in greasy or dirty environments. This socket is suited for mechanics, maintenance technicians, and trade professionals who need reliable hand-tool performance on metric fasteners in confined or deep-set applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe J4705LM is used wherever a standard-depth socket cannot reach the fastener — recessed bolts, deep-well fastener pockets, and assemblies where a nut sits below a surrounding surface. Its compact 1\/4 inch drive makes it compatible with standard 1\/4 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and adapters common in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general mechanical service work. The 6-point design is preferred over 12-point sockets in professional applications because it contacts the flat faces of the fastener rather than the corners, reducing cam-out under high torque.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5 mm socket size for metric fastener applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch drive fits standard ratchets, T-handles, and extensions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-point geometry contacts fastener flats for reduced rounding\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDeep length reaches recessed or below-surface fasteners\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChrome-plated finish provides corrosion resistance and easy cleaning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with standard 1\/4 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and drive tools.

Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque to avoid rounding the fastener head. Do not use impact drivers with hand sockets rated for hand-tool use only. Keep the socket and drive tool clean and free of debris for consistent engagement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSocket Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Points\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Deep\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chrome-plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.05 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: PROTO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: J4705LM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PROTO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542185673010,"sku":"J4705LM","price":18.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/55e8652f7336933be4b4f09e29a908bc.jpg?v=1785894551","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/proto-j4705lm-deep-hand-socket-5-mm-6-point","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
