Engineered for high performance and reliability, this 1/4-inch drive socket is a vital tool for mechanics and DIY enthusiasts alike. With a 5/16-inch size and an 8-point configuration, it incorporates the innovative TorquePlus design, which shifts stress away from fastener corners, minimizing slippage and rounding. This makes it particularly effective on stubborn, damaged, or soft material fasteners, extending their life while facilitating easier engagement. Constructed of durable metal and finished with a full polish chrome for additional protection against wear, this socket meets the rigorous demands of a variety of fastening tasks with efficiency and precision.

Features

• The TorquePlus configuration employs a radius-corner design, shifting contact area and stress away from the fastener corners and distributing contact stresses over a large area of the socket, minimizing slippage.
• Proto 8 Point Sockets are ideal for use on stubborn or damaged fasteners, and also on fasteners made from soft materials.
• The TorquePlus internal design minimizes fastener rounding, helps to extend fastener life, and allows the user to more easily turn worn, rounded or rusted fasteners.
• The TorquePlus design is a high performance drive configuration which allows for quick and easy socket engagement to the fastener flats, not the corners.
