Built from alloy steel with a chrome plating finish, this standard-length socket measures 0.875 inches in overall length and delivers a secure, corner-drive grip on hex fasteners. The 6-point geometry reduces the risk of rounding fastener heads compared to 12-point designs, making it a reliable choice for precision fastening tasks. It meets ASME B107.5M standards and carries a limited lifetime warranty. Mechanics, maintenance technicians, and service pros will find this socket well-suited for tight, controlled torque applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis socket is intended for hand-tool use in automotive, industrial, and general mechanical service environments. The 1\/4 inch drive size makes it appropriate for smaller fasteners where controlled torque and compact tool access are priorities. Standard length suits most open-access fastener locations. It is not tether capable, so it is best suited for ground-level or bench work where drop hazards are not a concern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e16 mm socket size with 6-point drive geometry for secure fastener engagement\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch drive compatible with standard ratchets, extensions, and drive handles\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAlloy steel construction with chrome plating for corrosion resistance and durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStandard length at 0.875 inches overall for general-access fastening\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ASME B107.5M standards for hand socket performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLimited lifetime warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 1\/4 inch drive ratchets, extensions, and drive handles accepting standard hand sockets.

Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque to avoid slippage or fastener damage. This socket is not tether capable and should not be used in elevated work environments where dropped-tool hazards are present. Inspect for cracks or wear before each use and replace if any deformation is observed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSocket Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 16 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\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: ASME B107.5M\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.1 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (H x W x L)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.9 x 0.9 x 0.9 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWarranty\u003c\/strong\u003e: Limited Lifetime\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: J4716M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PROTO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542183870770,"sku":"J4716M","price":16.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/d56495f7084c211f777a7cb05cd19646.jpg?v=1785894484","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/proto-j4716m-hand-socket-16-mm-6-point-1-4-drive","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
