Socket Hazet 8821-1 — 3/8" drive, 36 mm length, metric/imperial

Hazet 8821-1 is a 3/8" drive socket designed for use with both metric and imperial fasteners. The socket has a 36 mm overall length and is manufactured by Hazet in Germany. It is compatible with standard 3/8" ratchets and extensions and is intended for general mechanical and automotive work where moderate reach and accurate fit are required. The compact design and precise machining provide reliable engagement with nuts and bolts while allowing access in confined spaces.

Advantages

The socket offers a universal fit for metric and imperial fasteners, reducing the need to switch tools during mixed-system jobs. Its 36 mm length balances reach and access, making it suitable for use in typical engine bays and machinery. Being produced by a German toolmaker, the socket benefits from consistent dimensional accuracy and durable finishing that resists corrosion and wear under normal workshop conditions.

Suitable for

• Automotive maintenance and repair tasks
• General mechanical assembly and disassembly
• Work in confined or moderately recessed fastening points
• Use with standard 3/8" ratchets and drive extensions

Key specifications

• Drive size: 3/8 inch (square drive)
• Length: 36 mm overall
• Compatibility: fits both metric and imperial fastener heads
• Construction: solid socket geometry suitable for standard torque applications
• Weight: approximately 39 g

How to use

Select the Hazet 8821-1 socket when the fastener head matches its internal profile and when a 3/8" drive tool is required. Attach the socket securely to a 3/8" ratchet, breaker bar, or extension before applying torque. Ensure proper seating on the fastener to avoid rounding, and apply steady, controlled force. When working in restricted spaces, use appropriate extensions or universal joints while observing safe torque limits for the drive size.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the socket before use for cracks, wear, or deformation. Use with compatible 3/8" drive tools and avoid exceeding recommended torque for the drive size. Store in a dry place to limit corrosion and keep the socket clean from dirt and grease to maintain accurate fit and long service life.
