Description
Genuine Carlyle · Part no. CS14008M
The Carlyle CS14008M is an 8mm six-point socket with a 1/4in square drive, short pattern, polished chrome. A standard M5 nut is 8mm across the flats, as are plenty of small hex-headed screws, so this is one of the sizes a small socket set reaches for again and again on interior and electrical jobs.
Good to know
- Why does a 1/4in drive suit an 8mm fixing? The small ratchet head fits tight spaces and its short handle limits how hard you can pull, which protects small threads from being stripped.
- What do I do if the 8mm feels loose? Stop and check the fixing; it may be an imperial size or a different metric one. A loose socket can round the head the moment you put force on it.
- Can I keep it on a rail with my others? Yes, a 1/4in socket rail holds shallow sockets like this in order, so the commonly used sizes don't go missing.
Which one?
For 8mm nuts on long studs, the Carlyle 1/ 4Drive 8mm 6 Point Deep Chrome Socket (CSD14008M) reaches over the thread; the Carlyle 3/8 Drive 8mm 6 Point Chrome Socket (CS38008M) suits bigger ratchets.
