Manufactured from alloy steel with a chrome-plated finish, this standard-length socket measures 0.875 inches in overall length and weighs 0.02 pounds. The 6-point design applies force to the flat faces of a fastener rather than the corners, reducing the risk of rounding off hex fasteners under load. It meets AS4984A and ASME B107.110-2012 standards, making it appropriate for professional hand-tool applications across mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trades.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis socket is suited for residential and commercial service work where a compact 1\/4 inch drive is the preferred setup for tight-access fasteners. The 6 mm socket size is commonly encountered in metric fastener applications on equipment panels, fan assemblies, control components, and light mechanical assemblies. It is a standard-length configuration, appropriate for most direct-access applications without the need for an extension in typical service scenarios.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6 mm socket size for metric fasteners\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-point contact geometry reduces fastener rounding under torque\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch drive compatibility for compact ratchets and handles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlloy steel construction for durability in trade use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChrome-plated finish resists corrosion and simplifies cleaning\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets AS4984A and ASME B107.110-2012 standards\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 handles.

Do not use with impact drivers or air tools unless the socket is rated for impact use. Confirm the fastener size before applying torque to avoid fastener damage. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use and replace if any deformation is present.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSocket Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 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\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.875 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLength Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Alloy Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\/Finish\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chrome-Plated\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Dimensions\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.1 inches L x 0.7 inches W x 0.7 inches H\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.02 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTether Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Not Tether Capable\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStandards\u003c\/strong\u003e: AS4984A, ASME B107.110-2012\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27110000\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: J4706M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PROTO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51543468081458,"sku":"J4706M","price":15.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/434f1a1a8d97b3b8c6d2f834faa92a14.jpg?v=1785919098","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/proto-j4706m-6mm-6-point-hand-socket-1-4-in-drive","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
