Milwaukee 1/4 Drive Socket Metric Standard-4.5MM (4932479993)

Description

Genuine Milwaukee · Part no. 4932479993

A very small 4.5mm socket in standard length, driven from a 1/4in square. It is the kind of size you rarely need but cannot do without when you meet it: a tiny hex-head screw on a fitting, bracket or connector where pliers would chew the head and nothing else in a normal set will grip.

Good to know

• How do I avoid rounding such a small head? Push the socket fully home before turning and use gentle, steady pressure from your fingertips or a small ratchet. Heads this size give up long before the socket does.
• Will the next size up or down do instead? No. Half a millimetre either way is enough to slip, so try the socket on the head before you put any force through it, and keep the neighbouring sizes to hand.
• Which handle suits it? A short 1/4in ratchet or a spinner handle. A long handle gives far more leverage than a screw this small can take.

Which one?

The Milwaukee 1/4 Drive Socket Metric Deep-4.5MM (4932479995) reaches the same size down a recess; for a small handle to drive it, see the Carlyle Ratchet – Teardrop – 1/4in Drive (R14TD) or the Milwaukee 1 Piece 1/4in Drive Spinner Handle (4932493960).
