Introducing the DeWalt 11/32 in. SAE 6-Point Deep Socket with a precise 1/4 in. drive— engineered for serious fastening tasks where reach and grip matter. Built from rugged Chrome Vanadium steel and finished in polished chrome, this socket is designed to withstand daily use in professional shops and busy workshops alike.
Why this deep socket stands out: a 6-point design delivers a tighter grip on square fasteners, reducing rounding and slippage in demanding applications. The deep socket profile lets you reach fasteners buried in recessed pockets, while the 1/4 in. drive keeps your setup compact for tight spaces. When you’re working on automotive projects, bikes, appliances, or power tools, this socket helps you get the job done without fighting with a misfit connector.
