Stanley 1/4" 6 PT Standard Socket - 4mm

The Maxi-Drive system distributes contact across more surface area on the fastener, providing a stronger grip and helping prevent rounding or stripping. It also helps reduce over-tightening, extending fastener life and improving tool control during use.

The socket is made from Chrome Vanadium steel, which offers good strength, wear resistance, and durability for repeated use under typical torque tasks found in automotive and repair work.

A 6-point design grips hex fasteners more securely than some other designs, reducing rounding under higher torque. It’s ideal for fasteners that fit a hex profile and are prone to slippage, especially in automotive and heavy-duty tasks.

Yes. This socket is designed to fit standard 1/4" drive ratchets and other 1/4" drive tools, making it easy to pair with your existing toolkit.

Typical uses include automotive work (torqueing and loosening nuts and bolts), plumbing repairs, appliance servicing, and general home maintenance where a small, precise torque socket is needed.

Align the socket with the fastener, attach it to a 1/4" drive ratchet, and apply steady, even pressure while turning. Use the appropriate amount of torque for the fastener and avoid sudden impacts. The Maxi-Drive design helps minimize rounding when used properly.

Wipe the socket clean after use, keep it dry to prevent corrosion, and store it in its socket set or a case to prevent misplacement. Avoid using it with impact drivers unless it’s rated for such use, and inspect for cracks or wear before heavy use.

The standard 6-point socket is best for exposed fasteners where depth isn’t an issue, while a deep socket reaches fasteners that sit deeper or recessed. For a deep variant on Fepy, see the Stanley 1/4" Drive 6 Point Deep Socket page: https://fepy.com/stanley-1-4-drive-6-point-deep-socket
