Fixman 3/8 Inch Drive Deep Socket 11mm
At a Glance: 11mm deep hex socket with 3/8 inch square drive for reaching compatible recessed fasteners and nuts positioned on longer threaded studs
The Fixman FIX H0504M Deep Socket is designed for use with compatible 3/8 inch drive ratchets, handles and socket accessories. Its 11mm hex profile and extended deep-socket format provide additional reach compared with a standard socket, making it useful for compatible recessed fasteners and nuts fitted onto projecting threaded studs. The 3/8 inch drive format provides a practical balance of access, control and leverage for automotive, mechanical, assembly, maintenance and general workshop applications.
A deep socket has an extended body that provides additional internal depth compared with a standard socket. This allows it to reach compatible recessed nuts and fasteners positioned further along threaded studs while still providing secure engagement with the matching external hex profile.
