Description

Genuine Carlyle · Part no. S38006M

A 6mm, 6-point chrome vanadium socket for 3/8in drive, listed in standard (shallow) length. It lets a 3/8in ratchet or extension turn a small 6mm head without changing to a 1/4in set, handy when one small fixing turns up in the middle of a bigger job.

Good to know

  • Will it fit an M6 bolt? Not usually: the M6 is the thread size, and an M6 bolt typically has a 10mm head. This socket is for heads measuring 6mm across the flats.
  • What is the risk with a 3/8in ratchet on 6mm? Overtightening. The handle gives far more leverage than a small screw needs, so tighten with your fingertips on the head of the ratchet.
  • Is it impact rated? No, it is for hand tools only.

Which one?

For a lighter touch, the 1/4in drive Carlyle Socket – Shallow – Metric Standard – 1/4in Drive – 6 mm Size 6mm (S14006M); for a sunken 6mm head, the Carlyle 3/8 Drive 6mm Deep Chrome Socket (CSD38006M). To reach it, the Carlyle 3/8 Drive 250mm Chrome Extension (CEXT3810).
