Carlyle 3/8 Drive 6mm Deep Chrome Socket (CSD38006M)

Description

Genuine Carlyle · Part no. CSD38006M

This 6mm deep socket fits a 3/8in drive ratchet and reaches small 6mm heads that sit down a recess or on a protruding screw end. It is chrome plated with a knurled band, so you can spin it with your fingers to run a small screw in or out before using the ratchet.

Good to know

• Why deep for such a small size? Small screws are often sunk into trim, light housings or covers; the long body gets down to the head where a short socket on a fat ratchet head will not.
• How tight should a 6mm head go? Not very. These are usually small fixings into plastic or alloy, so snug them up gently rather than leaning on the ratchet.
• Can it go on a cordless driver? Only through a proper adaptor at a low setting, and never on an impact driver, because this is a chrome hand socket.

Which one?

Where the head is flush, the Carlyle 3/8 Drive 6mm 6 Point Chrome Socket (CS38006M) keeps the ratchet lower; for a lighter tool, the 1/4in drive Carlyle 1/4 Drive 6mm 6 point deep chrome socket (CSD14006M).
