The DeWalt 13/16 in. X 3/8 in. drive SAE 6 Point Socket is built for durability, precision, and everyday reliability in a professional-grade hand tool. Crafted from Chrome Vanadium Alloy Steel and finished in polished chrome, this socket is designed to stand up to repeated use without losing its grip or shape.
Key details that matter when you’re choosing a socket set:
-
Material and finish: Chrome Vanadium Alloy Steel for long-lasting strength, paired with a corrosion-resistant polished chrome finish for easy cleanup and a cleaner tool look after tough jobs.
-
Size and drive: 13/16 in SAE size with a 3/8 in drive, optimized for common hand tools and ratchets you already own. The 6-point profile delivers a tighter, more secure engagement on hex fasteners than standard 12-point designs.
-
Designed geometry: Nut End Outside Diameter 1-3/32 in., Drive End Outside Diameter 1-3/32 in., Nut Depth 1/2 in., Bolt Clearance Depth 11/16 in.— sized to handle typical fastener profiles in confined spaces.
-
Profile and length: Overall length 1-5/32 in. for a compact fit in crowded engine bays, tool drawers, and tight panels where every fraction of an inch counts.
-
Packaging: Carded packaging keeps a single, ready-to-use socket protected and easy to inventory in a toolbox or on a pegboard.
-
Usage note: Non-impact rated, intended for use with standard hand tools rather than impact drivers or power impact wrenches.
Who benefits the most from this socket? DIY enthusiasts tackling automotive and equipment maintenance, technicians performing routine repair work, and professionals who value dependable DeWalt quality in a ready-to-use 13/16 in SAE, 6-point socket. It’s ideal for tightening or removing hex fasteners where precise engagement is critical to prevent rounding and slippage during high-torque tasks.
Real-world scenarios you’ll appreciate:
- Securing or removing components on vehicles that use 13/16 in hex nuts—engine mounts, suspension components, or drivetrain hardware.
- Repair and maintenance on lawn equipment or motorcycles where space is tight and a snug 6-point fit matters.
- Home projects that demand a durable, orientation-stable socket that won’t round out fasteners after repeated use.
Compared to alternatives, this DeWalt socket emphasizes a balance of torque transfer and longevity. The 6-point engagement minimizes rounding under load, while the polished chrome finish reduces corrosion risk and makes cleanup quick after messy jobs.
