Extra Information

Use only with compatible 1/4" drive tools and accessories.
Always confirm the fastener size before use to avoid rounding or damaging the hex recess.
Make sure the socket is fully seated in the fastener before applying torque.
Use an extension where extra reach is needed, but avoid side loading the socket.

Clean dirt or debris from the hex recess before inserting the socket for a better fit.
Seat the hex socket fully before turning to reduce slipping and rounding.
Pair with a 1/4" ratchet for faster work in tight spaces where a normal hex key feels painfully slow.

Keep the socket straight and aligned with the fastener.
