Proto J5314H 7/16 Inch Deep Hand Socket 6-point 1/2 Drive

Product Description

The PROTO J5314H is a 7/16 inch, 6-point deep hand socket designed for professional hand-tool use in mechanical, electrical, and general trade work. Built to a 1/2 inch drive, it provides the extra reach needed to seat fully threaded fasteners or access recessed bolt heads that standard-depth sockets cannot reach. The chrome-plated finish resists corrosion and simplifies cleanup after use. At 0.29 pounds and 3.3 inches in length, it is a compact but capable addition to any professional socket set. Manufactured to ASME B107.1 standards, the J5314H meets the dimensional and performance tolerances expected on the job site.

This socket is suited for residential and commercial mechanical work, automotive service, HVAC equipment installation, electrical panel work, and general maintenance applications where a 7/16 inch fastener is common. The deep profile is particularly useful when driving long bolts or working around standoffs and spacers. It is a single-piece tool requiring no assembly and fits any standard 1/2 inch drive ratchet, breaker bar, or torque wrench.

Key Features

• 7/16 inch socket size with 6-point contact for reduced fastener rounding
• 1/2 inch drive compatible with standard ratchets, breaker bars, and torque wrenches
• Deep-length profile for reaching recessed or fully threaded fasteners
• Chrome-plated finish for corrosion resistance and easy cleaning
• Meets ASME B107.1 dimensional and performance standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard OEM-style replacement or add-on deep hand socket fitting any 1/2 inch drive hand-tool system requiring 7/16 inch fastener coverage.

Installation Notes

This socket is installed and removed by hand using a compatible 1/2 inch drive ratchet or wrench. Ensure the fastener is fully seated in the socket before applying torque to avoid slippage or fastener damage. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before use on high-torque applications. Follow applicable workplace safety and hand-tool usage guidelines appropriate to the trade environment.
