3/8 in Drive 7/16" SAE Socket

This Wiha Tools socket fits a 3/8 inch drive and engages 7/16 inch SAE hex fasteners with a 6-point profile. It is made from alloy steel for professional automotive and industrial use. The overall length measures 3 7/64 inches with a standard socket depth. A replaceable insert is not included.

Technicians needing a single 7/16" hex socket

Mechanics who require a full set of metric or SAE sizes should look elsewhere because this listing covers only one tip size. Buyers who need an impact-rated socket or a replaceable-bit design will not find those features here. The tool is restricted from sale in California due to Proposition 65 chemical warnings.

3/8 inch drive with 6-point 7/16" hex tip

The drive size and tip configuration are the decisive specifications for matching this socket to a ratchet and fastener. Alloy steel construction and standard depth support general-purpose turning. California Proposition 65 warnings apply to this product.

Questions about this item

What drive size does the 31815 socket need to fit a ratchet?

The socket uses a 3/8 in drive, so it fits any standard 3/8 in ratchet or breaker bar without an adapter.

How do I install the socket onto the fastener correctly?

Align the 6-point hex opening with the 7/16 in fastener, press straight on until fully seated, then turn; the common error is angling the socket, which rounds the corners.

Will the alloy-steel insert wear out and need replacement?

The insert is not replaceable; if the hex tip wears or rounds off, the entire socket must be replaced.
