Fixman 3/8 Inch Drive Metric Short Socket 16mm

Product information

Fixman 3/8 Inch Drive Metric Short Socket 16mm At a Glance: Compact 16mm six-point metric socket with a 3/8 inch square drive, manufactured from 50BV30 chrome vanadium steel to DIN 3124. The Fixman 16mm Metric Short Socket is designed for controlled tightening and loosening of compatible metric hex fasteners. Its compact short-profile body is ideal for general servicing and mechanical work where working depth is limited, while the six-point internal profile provides broad contact with the flats of the fastener. Manufactured from durable 50BV30 chrome vanadium steel and finished in polished chrome, this 3/8 inch drive socket is a dependable addition to automotive, workshop and maintenance tool collections. Compact six-point socket for secure torque transfer The six-point internal profile engages the broad flats of a compatible hex fastener rather than concentrating pressure on its corners. This supports positive torque transfer and helps reduce the risk of fastener rounding when the correct socket size is used.
