SOC 4MM 1/4D 12PT - GearWrench

The GearWrench 80197 4mm 1/4" Drive 12-Point Socket is engineered for professional technicians and mechanics requiring reliable performance in confined spaces. This standard metric socket combines durable construction with intelligent design features to ensure efficient and precise fastening, making it an essential addition to any automotive or industrial toolkit.

Key Features

• Off-Corner Loading Design: This socket features an off-corner loading design that applies force to the flats of the fastener rather than the corners, significantly reducing the risk of fastener rounding and extending the life of both the fastener and the socket.
• Enhanced Fastener Engagement: A chamfered opening allows for quicker and easier seating of the socket onto fasteners, streamlining workflow in demanding environments.
• Professional-Grade Durability: Constructed from high-strength alloy steel, this socket is built for maximum durability and strength, ensuring it withstands the rigors of daily professional use.
• Corrosion Resistance: The full polish chrome finish provides superior resistance to corrosion and is easy to wipe clean, maintaining a professional appearance and extending tool life.
• Clear Size Identification: Hard-stamped size markings ensure permanent and easy identification, even after extensive use and wear.
• Optimized for Access: The 12-point configuration offers more contact points, enabling easier alignment and engagement with fasteners in tight or obstructed areas, requiring less swing room for ratcheting.
• Meets Industry Standards: This GearWrench socket meets or exceeds ASME specifications, reflecting its professional quality and reliability.

Applications

The GearWrench 80197 4mm 1/4" Drive 12-Point Socket is ideally suited for a range of applications involving small metric fasteners. It is particularly effective for automotive repairs, especially for accessing intricate components and hard-to-reach bolts within engine compartments or vehicle interiors. In industrial and heavy machinery maintenance, this socket facilitates precise fastening tasks in confined workspaces where quick engagement and versatility are crucial.
