Product Details
This 15-piece 3/8 inch drive shallow 12-point socket set includes sizes 1/4, 9/32, 5/16, 11/32, 3/8, 7/16, 1/2, 9/16, 5/8, 11/16, 3/4, 13/16, 7/8, 15/16, and 1 inch. The sockets feature large, stamped markings permanently impressed by a roll-stamp die, designed to be as large as possible while remaining readable along the curved socket surface. The exterior finish is chrome-plated, and the interior is chrome-plated with an additional clear coat or painted finish where necessary to ensure full coverage. The 12-point socket opening allows for multiple access positions suitable for hex, double hex, and square fasteners, and the radiused corners prevent fastener round-off by applying force to the flat sides of fasteners rather than the corners. The design includes detent grooves and beveled edges to provide a smooth and secure connection with the drive tool. These sockets demonstrate high torque strength, meeting a minimum of 1.3 times the ANSI standard for proof torque, verified through a single-cycle test applying torque until the specified value is reached without failure or permanent deformation. The kit also includes a socket rail with a patented twist-to-lock design that securely holds the sockets, features a keyhole slot for mounting to a wall or workbench, and can be combined with multiple rails, trays, and other accessories to enhance socket organization.
