SATA ST11102SC 1/4" Drive 6 Point Socket 3/16"

Key specs include a 6-point design for a snug grip, off-corner loading to reduce fastener rounding, large engraved size markings for quick ID, a chrome-plated chrome vanadium steel body for durability, a 1/4-inch drive, compatibility with all 1/4-inch drive ratchets, and a knurled edge for a non-slip grip.

A 6-point socket makes greater contact with the flat sides of a hex fastener, provides better torque transfer, and minimizes rounding in high-torque or stubborn fasteners, while 12-point sockets offer easier alignment on square heads but can strip if used aggressively.

Yes. It’s designed to work with standard 1/4-inch drive ratchets, plus common extensions and adapters.

The socket is made from chrome vanadium steel and finished with a chrome-plated coating, providing strength, wear resistance, and corrosion protection for long service life.

It's well-suited for automotive repair, bicycle maintenance, electronics enclosures, and other precision-fastener tasks where a compact, high-torque socket is needed in tight spaces.

Align the socket with the fastener, apply straight torque, and use a compatible 1/4-inch drive ratchet or extension. The knurled edge helps you grip the tool in oily or greasy conditions, and the engraved size marking helps you pick the right size quickly.

Use the appropriate size and avoid applying torque beyond what the fastener or tool is rated for. Inspect the socket for damage before use, and keep your work area clean and dry to maintain a secure grip.

Compared to alternative 1, a 6-point design and off-corner loading reduce rounding and improve longevity. Compared to alternative 2, this socket emphasizes a knurled grip and easy size identification.
