1/4 in Drive Hex Socket Bit

The Westward 54TM08 is a 4 mm hex socket bit with a 1/4 in drive size. It is built from alloy steel for durability in automotive and general mechanical work. The overall length measures 1 1/2 in with an insert length of 5/8 in. This tool suits technicians and DIY users needing a precise fit for metric fasteners.

Replaces worn or missing 4 mm bits

It upgrades a damaged bit in an existing 1/4 in drive socket set. The jump is worth it when the old bit rounds off fastener heads or slips under torque. The six-point design grips flats more securely than twelve-point alternatives. Buyers who need a different metric size or a larger drive will not be served by this single bit.

Easy press-fit into 1/4 in drive sockets

Installation requires pushing the hex shank into a compatible socket until it seats. No special tools are needed. What usually goes wrong is using a socket with a worn or oversized drive cavity, which lets the bit wobble. California Proposition 65 warnings apply to this product.

Questions about this item

What drive size socket or ratchet does the 1/4 in drive hex bit require?

The bit has a 1/4 in drive, so it fits any standard 1/4 in drive ratchet, breaker bar or extension.

How do you seat the 4 mm hex tip into a fastener without rounding it?

Press the bit fully into the 4 mm hex socket until the 5/8 in insert length engages, then apply steady torque — avoid canting the tool.

When should the alloy steel bit be replaced?

Replace it once the 4 mm hex tip shows rounding, cracking or excessive wear that prevents full engagement with the fastener.
