GEARWRENCH - ACH 82538 3Mm 3/8" Drive Hex Bit Socket

This 3mm mid-length chrome hex bit socket from GEARWRENCH - ACH delivers a compact, precise solution for automotive technicians and serious DIYers. Engineered for reliable engagement with fasteners, the 3/8" drive profile balances access and torque for common vehicle and machinery tasks.

Mechanic Socket Kit Compatibility

Designed to integrate seamlessly into mechanic socket kit layouts, the 82538 socket complements ratchets, extensions, and existing socket sets. Mid-length construction improves reach into shallow recesses while preserving strength. The hex bit tip ensures tight, repeatable contact with internal hex fasteners to minimize rounding and slippage during removal and installation.

Ratchet Socket Set Performance

Use this socket with 3/8" drive ratchets for precise control in confined engine bays and suspension work. The size and geometry are optimized for stable fitment on 3mm hex fasteners commonly found in electronics, trim, and specialty automotive components. Its balanced dimensions help technicians maintain speed without sacrificing control.

Professional Socket Set Durability

Manufactured to industry expectations, the chrome construction resists wear and cleaning-related corrosion, making it a reliable member of a professional socket set. The hardened steel core provides long-term durability under repeated torque cycles, while the polished exterior eases identification and prevents tool chatter in socket trays.

Heavy Duty Socket Set Applications

While compact, this hex bit socket supports heavier-duty tasks when paired with appropriate torque tools, extensions, and breaker bars designed for 3/8" drive systems. It is suitable for automotive maintenance, light fabrication, and equipment servicing where access and precision are required.
