Built for 3\/8 inch drive impact wrenches and rattle guns, this socket accepts 8mm hex fasteners and delivers a 6-point contact pattern that distributes torque evenly across fastener flats, reducing the risk of rounding. The overall length of 1-1\/32 inches keeps the profile compact for use in tighter spaces. At 0.06 pounds, it is lightweight without sacrificing durability. Licensed trades and mechanics working in HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and general mechanical service will find this a reliable addition to an impact-rated socket set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis socket is suited for residential and commercial service work wherever 8mm fasteners are encountered. Common applications include equipment panel fasteners, motor mounts, bracket hardware, and electrical enclosure bolts. The 3\/8 inch drive size is standard across a wide range of mid-torque impact wrenches, making this socket compatible with tools already in most service vans. The compact overall length is particularly useful when working in confined equipment cabinets or around ductwork and conduit runs where clearance is limited.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e6-point socket geometry reduces fastener rounding under high-torque impact use\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e3\/8 inch drive fits standard mid-range impact wrenches and drive extensions\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8mm hex socket size covers common metric fasteners found in HVAC and mechanical equipment\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompact 1-1\/32 inch overall length improves access in tight spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eImpact-rated construction intended for use with pneumatic and cordless impact tools\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and standard-use impact socket for 3\/8 inch drive impact tools requiring an 8mm 6-point hex socket.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eImpact sockets must be used only with impact-rated drive tools. Do not use chrome hand-socket drivers with impact wrenches, as non-impact sockets can fracture under dynamic torque loads. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying power to the tool. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use and remove from service if deformation is found.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSocket Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Points\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Style\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hex\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-1\/32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.06 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27110000\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: J7208M\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PROTO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51541528314162,"sku":"J7208M","price":15.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/3abcb29ed621c75f67b29d15ed738627.jpg?v=1785878439","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/proto-j7208m-impact-socket-3-8-in-drive-8mm-6-point","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
