Milwaukee 3/8 Drive Socket Metric Standard-15MM (4932478345)

Description

Genuine Milwaukee · Part no. 4932478345

A 15mm socket in standard length for 3/8in drive, chrome finished with a stamped size. Fifteen millimetres is less common than its neighbours but turns up on flange bolts and nuts on a number of cars, and when it does nothing else grips properly, so a single 15mm is a sensible gap-filler for a three-eighths kit.

Good to know

• How do I tell 15mm from 16mm on a grimy head? Wipe it and try the socket. If it spins a fraction before it bites, it is too big; the right size seats with almost no movement.
• Will a short socket clear the bolt? On a flush bolt head, yes, and it keeps the ratchet low and steady. A nut with thread sticking through needs the deep 15mm.
• What if the bolt is seized? Free it with a breaker bar and steady pressure first; a 3/8in ratchet is for running it out once it moves.
