Proto J6514MH Impact Socket 1/4 in Drive 14mm 6-point

Product Description

The PROTO J6514MH is a 14mm, 6-point impact socket built for 1/4 inch drive impact wrenches and ratchets. Machined from alloy steel, it delivers the torsional strength needed to handle impact tool output without cracking or rounding fasteners. The 6-point geometry grips hex fasteners squarely on the flats rather than the corners, reducing fastener damage under high torque. At 2 inches overall length (OAL), it fits into tighter spaces than full-depth impact sockets. This socket is appropriate for automotive, mechanical, and general industrial work performed by mechanics, technicians, and maintenance trades.

This socket is suited for use with 1/4 inch drive impact drivers, air ratchets, and hand ratchets in applications requiring a 14mm hex fastener drive. Common install scenarios include engine bay fasteners, panel hardware, and equipment assembly where a compact 1/4 inch drive tool is preferred over larger drive sizes. The alloy steel construction handles the repeated shock loading that standard chrome sockets are not rated for, making it a dependable choice for daily shop use or field service work.

Key Features

• 14mm socket size with 6-point contact for secure grip on hex fasteners
• 1/4 inch drive compatible with standard impact wrenches, air ratchets, and hand ratchets
• Alloy steel construction rated for impact tool shock loading
• Compact 2 inch overall length for access in confined spaces
• Lifetime warranty from PROTO

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit impact socket for any 1/4 inch drive impact wrench, cordless impact driver, or air ratchet accepting standard square-drive accessories and requiring a 14mm hex socket.

Installation Notes

Install and remove using standard 1/4 inch square drive impact tools or hand ratchets. Verify the socket seats fully on the fastener before applying torque to prevent slippage and fastener damage. Do not use impact sockets with torque-limiting or precision torque tools unless the tool is rated for impact-style accessories. Inspect the socket periodically for cracks, chips, or deformation, and replace if any are found.
