Socket 3/8" 15 mm (6-point) Forsage F-53515

Forsage 3/8" 15 mm 6-point socket (model F-53515) is a precision hand tool made for use with 3/8-inch drive ratchets, extensions and torque wrenches. The 15 mm size fits common metric hex fasteners and the six-point configuration provides full-face engagement to minimize rounding and slippage during tightening and loosening. Designed for workshop, automotive and general maintenance use, this socket offers a compact profile that fits into tighter spaces while delivering reliable torque transfer.

Advantages

The 6-point design ensures solid contact with hex fasteners, reducing the risk of rounding and improving torque efficiency. Compatibility with 3/8" drive tools makes it suitable for a wide range of hand tool sets and accessories. The socket’s compact dimensions aid access in confined areas typical of engine bays and machinery assemblies. Manufactured to standard dimensions, it provides predictable fit and repeatable performance when used with appropriate drives and fasteners.

Suitable for

• Automotive repair and maintenance
• Mechanical assembly and disassembly
• Workshop and household maintenance tasks
• Use with 3/8" drive ratchets, extensions and torque wrenches

Key specifications

• Drive size: 3/8 inch
• Sockets size: 15 mm
• Point configuration: 6-point (hex)
• Profile: standard/compact for access in tighter spaces
• Intended use: fastening and loosening metric hex bolts and nuts

How to use

Select the 15 mm 6-point socket and attach it securely to a compatible 3/8" drive ratchet, extension or torque wrench. Position the socket squarely over the hex fastener so the six contact faces engage fully. Apply steady turning force, avoiding sudden impacts that may damage the socket or fastener. When using a torque wrench, set the required torque value and apply force until the wrench clicks or indicates the target torque. After use, clean any debris from the socket and store it in a suitable tool case to prevent corrosion and loss.

Usage recommendations

Use the socket only with compatible 3/8" drive tools and on matching 15 mm hex fasteners. For high-torque or impact applications, choose tools and sockets rated for impact use. Regularly inspect the socket for wear or rounding; replace if deformation is observed to maintain safe and reliable performance.
