SATA GL13405 1/2" Drive 6 Point Deep Socket 14mm

A 6-point design provides a secure grip on hex fasteners by sharing torque across more surfaces, reducing the risk of rounding and extending the life of both the socket and the fastener compared to some other socket styles.

The deep socket is longer than a standard socket, letting you reach fasteners that sit deeper inside components. It’s particularly useful for accessing recessed bolts or long studs without removing surrounding parts.

This socket is made from chrome vanadium steel and finished with chrome plating to provide strength and excellent resistance to rust and corrosion, helping it last longer in tough environments.

Off-corner loading engages the corners of the fastener rather than just the flats, which reduces fastener rounding and improves grip under high torque, especially in tight spaces.

It supports a 1/2" drive and is designed for a 14mm hex fastener, featuring a deep, 6-point geometry for robust performance in demanding tasks.

The GL13405 is engineered for high torque and impact use, making it suitable for demanding automotive and industrial jobs when used with compatible impact-rated tools and sockets.

The socket features laser-etched size markings for fast and accurate identification, even in dim work areas.

Attach the socket to a 1/2" drive ratchet, align it with the fastener, apply steady torque, and use extensions if needed to reach recessed bolts. Always avoid over-torquing to protect fasteners and tools.

Common uses include automotive maintenance (engine bays, suspension components), general mechanical repairs, and any task requiring access to recessed 14mm fasteners in hard-to-reach areas.

When comparing, consider material and finish (chrome vanadium with chrome plating), depth/reach, 6-point design versus other geometries, off-corner loading capability, and price.
