Tekton Inc SHD91216 3/8 in Drive 12-point Socket Set 24pc

Product Description

The TEKTON INC SHD91216 is a 24-piece, 3/8 inch drive metric socket set that includes 12 shallow sockets and 12 deep sockets, all with 12-point openings. Sizes run from 8 mm through 19 mm in both shallow and deep profiles. The 12-point geometry provides more engagement positions on hex, double-hex, and square fasteners. Radiused corners apply force to the flat sides of the fastener rather than the corners, reducing the risk of round-off. Sockets feature a chrome-plated exterior and interior finish with a clear coat or painted supplemental finish where needed. A detent groove and beveled edges on the drive end maintain secure contact with the ratchet or breaker bar.

This set is suited for automotive, mechanical, and general maintenance work where both shallow and deep reach are needed from the same drive size. The 3/8 inch drive is a common choice for mid-range fastener work across engine bays, chassis components, equipment panels, and plumbing or HVAC mechanical connections. The included socket rails and molded tray keep all 24 pieces organized and accounted for in a service van or shop toolbox. The set covers the full 8 mm to 19 mm range in a single tray, reducing the need to pull from multiple sets during a job.

Installation Notes

Sockets should be fully seated on the drive tool before applying torque. Inspect the detent ball and socket drive square for wear before use on high-torque fasteners. Keep sockets clean and dry to maintain chrome finish and prevent corrosion. Return sockets to the tray after each use to prevent loss and maintain set integrity.
