GEKO 1/4" 12 mm hexagonal hand socket (model T00140-12) is a six-point socket designed for use with 1/4" drive ratchets and handles. Intended for workshop, maintenance and general mechanical use, this 12 mm socket provides a compact solution for tightening and loosening hex fasteners in confined spaces. The product is supplied in packs indicated as 10/100 for convenient storage and inventory management.

Advantages

The six-point geometry of the 12 mm socket provides secure contact with hex fasteners, reducing the risk of rounding. Compatibility with 1/4" drive tools makes it suitable for light to medium torque operations while its compact length helps access tight locations. Durable construction ensures reliable repeated use in workshop environments.

Suitable for

• Automotive light maintenance and small repairs
• Household and DIY assembly tasks
• Electronics and appliance servicing where small drives are required
• Workshop tool kits and professional maintenance sets

Key specifications

• Drive size: 1/4" (square drive)
• Socket size: 12 mm (hex, 6-point)
• Geometry: six-point for improved fastener grip

• Packaging quantities: sold in packs indicated as 10/100

How to use

Select the 12 mm GEKO socket and attach it to a compatible 1/4" drive ratchet or handle. Position the socket squarely onto the hex fastener and apply steady torque in the required direction to tighten or loosen. For confined spaces use a short extension or a low-profile ratchet to improve access. Inspect the tool and fastener seating before applying higher torque to avoid slipping or rounding.

Usage recommendations

Use within the torque range appropriate for a 1/4" drive system and avoid excessive force beyond the drive or fastener rating. Keep the socket clean and dry after use and store in the original packaging or a tool organizer to prevent damage and loss.
