Socket attachment Dedra 3/4" 6-point 60 mm with tag (model 17A460Z)

Dedra 6-point socket attachment with a 3/4" drive and 60 mm size, model 17A460Z, is a hand tool component designed for engaging hexagonal nuts and bolts. The 6-point geometry ensures full-face contact with fasteners to minimize rounding and improve torque transfer. The socket includes an attached tag for easy identification or storage, making it practical for workshop and maintenance environments.

Advantages

The six-point profile offers stable grip on hex fasteners, reducing the risk of slipping and rounding compared with twelve-point designs. A robust 3/4" drive interface ensures compatibility with heavy-duty ratchets and torque wrenches. The integrated tag simplifies organization and quick selection of the socket in busy tool sets. Made to withstand repeated use in mechanical and maintenance tasks, the socket is suitable for professional and hobby applications where higher torque is required.

Suitable for

• Fastening and loosening large hex nuts and bolts in automotive repair
• Mechanical assembly and disassembly in industrial maintenance
• Workshop tool sets for construction and metalworking tasks
• Equipment servicing where higher torque and stable grip are required

Key specifications

• Drive size: 3/4" compatible interface for ratchets and torque wrenches
• Socket profile: 6-point (hex) geometry for full-face contact
• Socket size: 60 mm across flats suitable for large fasteners
• Material and finish: durable construction designed for repeated mechanical use
• Accessory: attached tag for identification and storage convenience

How to use

Select the socket that matches the fastener size and attach it securely to a compatible 3/4" drive ratchet, breaker bar, or torque wrench. Place the socket fully onto the nut or bolt, ensuring the six contact faces seat evenly on the fastener to avoid rounding. Apply torque gradually and maintain alignment with the fastener axis. Use a torque wrench when a specific tightening specification is required, and revert to a breaker bar or impact-rated tools only if the socket and tools are rated for such use.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the socket before use for wear, cracks, or deformation; replace if any damage is visible. Keep the tag visible or label it according to your tool organization system. Use appropriate personal protective equipment, and avoid applying impact or excessive side loads unless the socket and drive tools are specifically rated for impact service.
