Carlyle 1/ 4Drive 7mm 6 Point Deep Chrome Socket (CSD14007M)

Description

Genuine Carlyle · Part no. CSD14007M

Carlyle's CSD14007M is a 7mm six-point deep socket on a 1/4in square drive, chrome plated and polished. The long body slides down over a small nut sitting on a protruding thread, and the size suits worm-drive hose clip screws, light brackets and trim fixings where a shallow socket would run out of depth.

Good to know

• Will it fit my hose clips? Many worm-drive hose clips have a 7mm or 8mm hex screw head, so try the socket on yours first. On a small ratchet it turns a clip far quicker than a screwdriver slipping in the slot.
• Can I use it to free something that's stuck fast? Go gently. Quarter-inch drive is meant for light, low-torque work, and heaving on a little ratchet to shift a seized nut can break the ratchet or split the socket.
• What will drive it? Any tool with a 1/4in square drive: a small ratchet, a spinner handle or a 1/4in extension bar.

Which one?

To drive it, the Carlyle 1/4in Drive 90-Tooth Ratchet 135mm Long (CR1490) needs only a 4 degree swing per click; the 8mm CSD14008M and 9mm CSD14009M are the next sizes in the same deep 1/4in run.
