Socket 3/8" 14 mm long, 6-point, NEO tools 08-189

Long 6-point socket for 3/8" drive, 14 mm size from NEO tools (model 08-189). Designed to reach recessed or hard-to-access hex fasteners, this 14 mm long socket provides extended reach compared with a standard socket while maintaining a compact external profile. The 6-point internal profile offers secure contact with hex heads to reduce the risk of rounding and to transfer torque efficiently for fastening and loosening tasks.

Advantages

The extended shank allows access to nuts and bolts located in deep or recessed positions without requiring additional extensions. A 6-point geometry improves grip on hex fasteners and helps prevent slipping under high torque. Compatible with 3/8" drive ratchets and accessories, the socket is suitable for use with common hand tools. The chrome-finish surface resists corrosion and simplifies cleaning after use.

Suitable for

• Automotive repair and maintenance where recessed nuts or brake components are present
• Mechanical assembly and disassembly in confined spaces
• General workshop and maintenance tasks requiring a 14 mm socket with extra reach

Key specifications

• Drive size: 3/8"
• Socket size: 14 mm
• Internal profile: 6-point (hex)
• Design: long shank for extended reach
• Finish: chrome or chrome-plated surface for corrosion resistance

How to use

Select a compatible 3/8" drive ratchet, breaker bar or extension and attach the long 14 mm socket to the square drive. Place the socket over the hex fastener ensuring full seating on the 6-point profile, then apply steady torque to loosen or tighten the fastener. For deeply recessed fasteners, use the socket alone or combined with additional extensions as needed to achieve the required reach. After use, wipe clean and store in a socket rail or tool organizer to maintain condition.

Usage recommendations

Use the socket only with hand-operated tools designed for 3/8" drive and avoid applying impact tools unless the socket is explicitly rated for impact use. Inspect the socket and fastener for damage before applying high torque, and use correct torque settings to avoid fastener rounding or tool damage.
