Proto J4711 Hand Socket 11/32 Inch 6-point 1/4 Drive

Product Description

The PROTO J4711 is a standard-length, 6-point hand socket designed for 1/4 inch drive ratchets and wrenches. It accepts an 11/32 inch fastener and is manufactured from alloy steel with a chrome-plated finish. The 6-point geometry provides full contact on each flat of the fastener, reducing the risk of rounding under load. At 7/8 inch overall length, this socket fits into tighter spaces than deep-well versions. It meets ASME B107.110-2012 and AS4984A standards, making it suitable for professional trade work where certified tooling is required. Licensed tradespeople in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and mechanical service will find this socket a reliable addition to a 1/4 inch drive set.

The PROTO J4711 is suited for light-duty fastener work in residential and commercial service applications. The 11/32 inch size is commonly encountered on sheet metal screws, small hex-head bolts, and equipment panels found in HVAC cabinets, electrical enclosures, and plumbing access covers. The standard length profile makes it a practical choice for bench work and general service tasks where clearance is not severely restricted. It is packaged as a single socket, allowing techs to replace or supplement an existing 1/4 inch drive set without purchasing a full kit.

Installation Notes

This socket is installed and used by licensed service technicians and professional tradespeople working on mechanical fasteners. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque to avoid slippage or fastener damage. Inspect the socket and drive interface for wear before use on critical fasteners. The chrome finish is intended for hand-tool use and should not be used with impact drivers.
