SKU CH-VP24-MT3Z6

A 3/8 in. drive 7/8 in. deep socket with a 6-point WaveDrive design made from heat-treated Chrome Vanadium steel for high-torque applications

  • 6-point WaveDrive design prevents fastener rounding
  • SmartKrome finish resists corrosion through protective plating
  • Chrome Vanadium steel with proprietary heat treatment handles high torque
  • Deep socket reaches recessed fasteners in tight spaces
  • California Proposition 65 warning for cancer and reproductive harm

Single Deep Socket for Demanding Work

This 3/8 in. drive 7/8 in. SAE deep socket is built for professional technicians who need reliable fastener engagement. Premium chrome vanadium steel and a proprietary heat treatment deliver the strength required for high-torque applications. The 6-point WaveDrive design grips flats tightly to prevent rounding and provide extra leverage. A SmartKrome finish adds corrosion resistance and a polished appearance.

WaveDrive Geometry Changes Engagement

The 6-point WaveDrive profile contacts the fastener on its flats rather than its corners, reducing the chance of rounding during heavy use. This geometry also increases leverage so less input force is needed to break stubborn bolts free. Combined with the deep-well construction, the design allows access to recessed fasteners on automotive and industrial assemblies. The protective SmartKrome plating resists rust and wipes clean easily.

Deep Well Handles Long Studs and Recessed Bolts

The deep socket comfortably clears extended threads and reaches fasteners set deep inside housings or wheel hubs. Chrome vanadium construction withstands repeated impact and high torque without deformation. It is not suited for shallow clearance where a standard-length socket is required, nor for drive sizes other than 3/8 in. Buyers needing multiple sizes or a complete set should look for a kit rather than this single piece.

Questions about this item

Does the Chrome Vanadium steel or SmartKrome finish need any special care to prevent wear?

The socket uses premium Chrome Vanadium steel with a proprietary heat treatment and SmartKrome finish; normal cleaning after use is sufficient and no special maintenance is required.

What stops the 6-point WaveDrive design from rounding a fastener first under heavy torque?

The WaveDrive geometry grips the fastener flats rather than the corners, spreading load evenly so the socket drives the fastener without rounding it.

Does the deep socket get hot or slip during extended use with an impact gun?

The Chrome Vanadium construction and protective plating handle sustained torque without overheating, and the 6-point design maintains grip during continuous operation.
