Fixman 3/8 Inch Drive E-Socket 6 Point E7

At a Glance: E7 external star-profile socket with 6-point engagement and 3/8 inch square drive for tightening and loosening compatible E7 fasteners

The Fixman FIX H0804M E-Socket is designed for use with compatible E7 external star-profile fasteners and 3/8 inch drive ratchets, handles and socket accessories. Its 6-point E7 profile engages the matching external fastener head, providing a dedicated solution where a conventional hex socket is unsuitable. The 3/8 inch drive format makes it suitable for automotive, mechanical, assembly, maintenance and general workshop applications involving compatible E-profile fasteners.

E7 external star-profile socket for specialised fasteners

An E-socket is designed to fit over a matching external star-profile fastener rather than a conventional hex nut or bolt head. The E7 size must be correctly matched to the fastener to provide proper engagement and reduce the risk of slipping or damaging the fastener profile.

  • Clean dirt, corrosion or debris from the fastener profile before fitting the socket.
  • Make sure the E7 socket is fully seated before turning the fastener.
  • Use a suitable extension where additional reach is required rather than working at an angle.
