11-Piece 3/8-Inch Drive Metric Deep Socket Set
This 11-piece set provides 3/8-inch drive deep metric sockets for automotive and general mechanical work. It suits technicians and DIYers who need extended reach on fasteners in tight spaces. The range covers 8 through 18mm for common metric hardware.
Heat-treated chrome vanadium steel
Sockets are forged from heat-treated chrome vanadium steel for strength under sustained torque. The high polish chrome finish resists rust and corrosion during repeated exposure to shop fluids and humidity. Six-point geometry grips fastener flats to reduce rounding when loads are held over time.
Laser etched markings
Each socket carries permanent laser etched size markings that remain legible after heavy use. The 6-point profile engages fastener sides cleanly, lowering the risk of slippage or rounding compared with 12-point alternatives. The set meets or exceeds ANSI and ASME performance standards for professional reliability.
