Built from steel with a chrome finish, this socket measures 1-15\/64 inches in overall length, classifying it as a standard-length socket. It weighs approximately 0.012 pounds. Licensed tradespeople and journeymen mechanics reach for this socket when working on small fasteners in automotive, mechanical, and general maintenance applications where a 1\/4 inch drive ratchet or extension is the right tool for the job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis socket suits residential maintenance, light commercial service work, and shop environments where 3\/16 inch fasteners are common. The 12-point design allows engagement at multiple angles, which helps in confined spaces where a full swing is not possible. It is compatible with standard 1\/4 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches. HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and general mechanics working on equipment panels, access covers, or component hardware will find this socket a routine addition to a 1\/4 inch drive set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/16 inch socket size for small fastener applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e12-point geometry allows engagement at 30-degree intervals for use in restricted swing areas\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch drive compatible with standard ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eChrome-plated steel construction resists corrosion and simplifies cleaning\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStandard length at 1-15\/64 inches overall for balanced reach and clearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets AS4984A, ASME B107.110-2012, and SAE AS954G standards\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLifetime warranty from PROTO\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement or addition for any standard 1\/4 inch drive socket set requiring a 3\/16 inch 12-point socket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis socket is installed by licensed mechanics, technicians, or qualified tradespeople using a 1\/4 inch drive ratchet or torque wrench.
