8mm 6PT 3/8” Drive Metric Cr-V Regular Socket - PKTool
The PKTool 8mm 6 Point 3/8” Drive Metric Socket is engineered for precision fastening, durability, and dependable workshop performance. Designed to suit all standard 3/8” drive ratchets, extensions, and torque wrenches, this regular-length socket delivers secure engagement on 8mm fasteners commonly found in automotive, motorcycle, and general mechanical applications. The 6-point (6PT) configuration grips the flat sides of the bolt head rather than the corners, allowing for improved torque transfer while reducing the risk of rounding or damaging fasteners.
Manufactured from high-quality Chrome Vanadium (Cr-V) steel, this socket is built to withstand repeated use and moderate to high torque applications. The smooth satin finish enhances corrosion resistance while reducing glare under workshop lighting, improving visibility and control in tight or low-light working conditions. Ideal for professional mechanics, tradespeople, and DIY enthusiasts, the PKTool 8mm 3/8” Drive Socket offers reliable strength, precise fitment, and long service life for everyday servicing and repair tasks.
