Socket bit 1/4" 6 mm GEKO T00140-06 — hexagonal, hardened, pack 10/100

Hexagonal socket bit GEKO T00140-06 with a 1/4" drive and a 6 mm hex head, designed for general assembly, maintenance and repair. The bit is made from hardened steel to increase wear resistance and service life. It is compatible with 1/4" bit holders, hand ratchets and many pneumatic or electric drivers. Available in packs of 10 or 100 pieces to suit workshop stocking or retail sale.

Advantages

The hardened steel construction provides reliable strength and resistance to rounding or deformation during torque application. Precision-machined hex geometry ensures secure fit with fasteners and reduces cam-out. A standard 1/4" drive enables broad compatibility with common bit holders and drivers. Multiple-pack options simplify inventory management for workshops and retailers.

How to use

Select the 6 mm hex socket bit and insert it into a compatible 1/4" bit holder, ratchet or driver. Ensure the bit is seated fully to avoid slippage. Apply steady torque appropriate to the fastener and material; avoid excessive force that could damage the fastener or bit. For power drivers, set an appropriate torque or speed setting and use short bursts to maintain control.

Usage recommendations

Store bits in a dry place and keep them organised in their packs or a dedicated bit holder to prevent loss and reduce corrosion risk. Inspect bits periodically for wear or rounding and replace when fit is compromised. Use the correct bit size and avoid applying impact or excessive torque beyond the bit's intended use.
