Proto J4714LM Deep Hand Socket 14mm 6-point 1/4 Drive

Product Description

The PROTO J4714LM is a 14 mm deep hand socket built for professional trade use in tight or extended-reach fastening applications. It features a 6-point internal geometry that maximizes contact with fastener flats, reducing the risk of rounding under high torque. The 1/4-inch drive size pairs with standard ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches of that drive class. A chrome-plated finish provides corrosion resistance for shop and field environments. This socket is suited for mechanics, maintenance technicians, and service professionals who need a reliable deep-reach socket for metric fasteners.

The J4714LM is used in automotive, industrial, and general mechanical maintenance settings where standard-length sockets cannot reach recessed or stud-mounted fasteners. Its deep-well design accommodates threaded studs and extended bolt shafts that flush or shallow sockets cannot seat on. The 1/4-inch drive configuration makes it appropriate for lighter-duty precision work and confined spaces where a smaller drive class is preferred.

Key Features

• 14 mm socket size for metric fastener applications
• 6-point design reduces fastener rounding compared to 12-point under torque
• Deep-well length accommodates recessed and stud-mounted fasteners
• 1/4-inch drive compatible with standard ratchets and extensions
• Chrome-plated finish for corrosion resistance in shop and field use

Compatibility

Designed as a deep hand socket for use with standard 1/4-inch drive ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches. Fits 14 mm metric fasteners in automotive, HVAC, and general mechanical applications.

Installation Notes

This socket is installed and removed by hand using a compatible 1/4-inch drive ratchet or extension. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque to prevent slipping or fastener damage. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use, and do not use hand sockets with impact drivers unless the socket is impact-rated.
