Proto J6914H Impact Socket 1/4 in Drive 7/16 in 6-point

Product Description

The PROTO J6914H is a 6-point hex drive impact socket designed for use with 1/4 inch drive impact wrenches and ratchets. Built for high-torque fastening applications, it accepts a 7/16 inch fastener and measures 7/8 inches in overall length. The 6-point contact geometry reduces fastener rounding under impact load, making it a reliable choice for production, maintenance, and repair environments. At 0.05 pounds, this socket is compact and lightweight without sacrificing drive integrity. Licensed trade professionals and industrial mechanics reach for this socket when precision fit and impact durability matter in tight-clearance work areas.

This socket fits residential, commercial, and light industrial applications where a 1/4 inch drive impact tool is the right size for the job. The 7/16 inch size is common in HVAC equipment fastening, electrical panel hardware, plumbing fixture mounting, and general mechanical assembly. Its short 7/8 inch overall length makes it well suited for confined spaces where a standard-length socket would not clear surrounding structure or components.

Key Features

• 1/4 inch drive fits standard 1/4 inch impact wrenches and ratchets
• 7/16 inch socket size for common fastener applications
• 6-point hex drive geometry minimizes fastener rounding under impact torque
• 7/8 inch overall length allows use in tight or recessed spaces
• Lightweight at 0.05 pounds for reduced fatigue during repetitive use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style impact socket for use with 1/4 inch drive impact wrenches, ratchets, and extension bars accepting standard square drive tooling.

Installation Notes

Install and remove using a 1/4 inch drive impact wrench or ratchet. Verify the socket is fully seated on the drive anvil before applying torque. Power down or de-energize any equipment before accessing fasteners on live systems. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use and remove from service if damage is found.
