It features a 3\/16 inch blade width and 0.032 inch blade thickness, with an overall length of 1-53\/64 inches. The socket drive end accepts any standard 1\/4 inch drive ratchet or extension. It is a compact, single-piece tool suited for HVAC technicians, electricians, plumbers, and general trade professionals who need precise screw engagement in confined panel or junction box environments.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis socket is intended for use with 1\/4 inch drive ratchets, T-handles, and extensions in light-duty fastening applications. It fits slotted machine screws and sheet metal screws commonly found in electrical panels, control boards, HVAC access covers, and similar assemblies.
