The socket fits a 3\/8 inch drive and accepts a 3\/4 inch fastener size, with an overall length of 2-1\/8 inches. It features SUPERTORQUE lobular internal geometry, which applies turning force to the flat faces of the fastener rather than the corners, reducing the risk of deforming worn or corroded nuts. Built for field use by utility service professionals and licensed tradespeople.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis penta socket is used in the field by gas, electric, and water utility technicians who need to open or close tamper-resistant utility shutoff access covers.
