Socket 1/4" NEO tools 10-310 — single imperial socket, weight 14 g

NEO tools 1/4" socket model 10-310 is a compact imperial socket designed for fastening and loosening small hex fasteners. The socket is 37 mm in overall length, configured as a short H3 hexagonal bit on a 1/4" drive, and weighs approximately 14 g. Manufactured from chrome vanadium steel, it offers corrosion resistance and mechanical strength for repeated use. It serves as a replacement part for tool kits and as a standalone accessory for ratchets, extensions and driver handles compatible with a 1/4" drive.

Advantages

The chrome vanadium construction provides durability and wear resistance while maintaining a compact and lightweight design suited to precision tasks. Its 37 mm short length allows access in confined spaces while reducing leverage that could damage small fasteners. The single-piece design simplifies storage and replacement of lost or damaged kit components, and compatibility with standard 1/4" ratchets and adapters makes it versatile for many maintenance jobs.

Suitable for

• Automotive interior and small-component assembly and disassembly
• Household appliance and furniture repairs
• Equipment maintenance where a 1/4" drive size is required
• Replacement of missing or damaged socket pieces in tool sets

Key specifications

• Drive type: 1/4" (imperial)
• Bit profile: H3 hexagonal
• Overall length: 37 mm (short)
• Material: chrome vanadium steel
• Weight: approx. 14 g

How to use

Select a compatible 1/4" ratchet, extension or driver handle and securely attach the socket to the drive. Position the H3 hexagonal end over the fastener head, ensure correct fit to avoid rounding, and apply steady turning force to fasten or loosen the fastener. For tight spaces, use the socket in combination with a short extension or a flex-handle to improve access. After use, clean off debris and store the socket in a designated case or rack to prevent loss.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the socket and fastener for wear before use. Use hand tools within their rated torque range and avoid excessive impact or high-torque impact drivers unless the socket is specifically rated for such use. Keep the socket dry and lightly oiled for corrosion protection when stored for long periods.
