Description
The Proto J5012B 3/8 in Drive 3/8 in 12-Point Black Oxide Deep Socket is a 3/8 in drive, 3/8 in, 12-point deep socket in black oxide finish. The manufacturer states that Proto 12-point sockets suit stubborn or damaged fasteners and fasteners made from soft materials, and that the TorquePlus design engages the fastener flats rather than the corners. The size is in inches (in).
Per the manufacturer, the radius-corner configuration shifts contact stress away from the fastener corners and distributes it over a larger area of the socket, which helps minimize slippage. Per the manufacturer, the black oxide finish is for hand use only. Nut depth 13/32 in, bolt clearance depth 1-11/16 in, overall length 2-1/8 in. Sold as a single socket.
