Socket 6-point 3/4" 24 mm Honiton H1624

Honiton Socket 6-point 3/4" 24 mm (model H1624) is a solid hand and power-tool socket designed for reliable engagement with 24 mm hex fasteners. Built to fit a 3/4-inch square drive, this six-point socket provides full-face contact on hex heads to reduce rounding and deliver consistent torque transfer during automotive, industrial maintenance, and mechanical repair tasks.

Advantages

The six-point geometry ensures maximum contact with hex fasteners, reducing the risk of slippage and fastener damage. Machined from durable tool-grade steel and finished for corrosion resistance, the socket is suitable for repeated use in workshop environments. Its standard 3/4" drive compatibility allows use with common torque wrenches, impact tools, and breaker bars, making it a versatile addition to professional and home toolkits.

Suitable for

• Automotive repair: wheel fasteners, suspension and engine maintenance
• Industrial maintenance: machinery assembly and servicing
• Mechanical repair and general workshop tasks requiring 24 mm hex engagement

When it may not be suitable

This socket is intended for 24 mm six-sided fasteners and a 3/4" square drive; it will not fit other drive sizes or non-hex fasteners such as square or spline heads. For highly corrosion-sensitive environments or specialized fastener types, alternative coatings or socket styles (e.g., deep, impact-rated, or thin-wall) may be more appropriate.

Key specifications

• Hex size: 24 mm
• Drive size: 3/4 inch (square drive)
• Point configuration: 6-point (hex)
• Material: tool-grade steel with protective finish
• Typical use: hand and powered torque tools, breaker bars

How to use

Select the 24 mm six-point socket for the corresponding hex fastener and attach it securely to a compatible 3/4" drive tool. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque. When using with power or impact tools, verify the socket is rated for such use; apply steady, controlled force when using manual torque wrenches to avoid over-tightening. Inspect the socket and fastener surfaces for wear or damage before each use.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm the fastener size is 24 mm and hex-shaped.
• Verify compatibility with your tool drive size (3/4").
• Decide if you need a deep socket, impact-rated socket, or special coating for your application.

Usage recommendations

Use the socket with properly rated torque tools and observe manufacturer torque specifications for fasteners. Store the socket in a dry toolbox and inspect regularly for wear to ensure long service life.
