Socket Bit 1/4" 6-point 4.5 mm Dedra 16A1045

1/4" Socket Bit 6-point 4.5 mm from Dedra is a compact hexagonal drive accessory designed for use with 1/4" drive tools and screwdriver bit holders. The 4.5 mm 6-point profile delivers accurate engagement with compatible fasteners, allowing controlled application of torque for tightening or loosening bolts and screws in a variety of mechanical and assembly tasks.

Advantages

The 6-point hex geometry reduces slipping and rounding of fastener heads compared with shallower profiles, while the standard 1/4" drive interface ensures compatibility with a wide range of manual and powered drivers. The small 4.5 mm size provides access in tight spaces and on small assemblies, and the single-piece construction improves durability and torque transmission.

Suitable for

• Precision mechanical assembly and small fasteners
• DIY repairs on electronics, appliances and furniture
• Maintenance tasks where compact socket bits are required
• Use with 1/4" bit holders, ratchets and compact power drivers

Key specifications

• Drive size: 1/4" standard square/hex adapter compatibility
• Socket geometry: 6-point (hex) profile
• Nominal size: 4.5 mm
• Suitable for manual and powered drivers
• Intended use: fastening and loosening bolts and screws with 4.5 mm hex heads

How to use

Insert the socket bit into a compatible 1/4" bit holder, ratchet or power driver until it locks into place. Position the hex end over the matching 4.5 mm fastener head and apply steady torque in the required direction to tighten or loosen. For powered drivers, start at low speed to ensure correct seating before increasing torque. After use, remove the bit and store it in a protective case or bit organizer to prevent damage.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate hand or power tools rated for the torque required by the fastener; avoid excessive force to prevent tool or fastener damage. Inspect the bit regularly for wear or deformation and replace if the hex profile becomes rounded.
