Adapter NEO tools 3/8" female to 1/4" male, 26 mm (T N08-562)

NEO tools adapter converts a 3/8" female drive to a 1/4" male connection with an overall length of 26 mm. Designed for mechanical compatibility between workshop sockets and accessories, this compact adapter enables use of 1/4" fittings with 3/8" tools. The adapter is intended for general workshop, automotive and maintenance tasks where different drive sizes need to be combined without changing the primary tool.

Advantages

The adapter provides a secure mechanical connection that preserves torque transfer and minimizes play between drives. Its compact 26 mm length keeps access in tight spaces while maintaining tool balance. Made to match common square drive standards, it simplifies workflow by allowing one set of sockets or accessories to be used across tools with differing drive sizes.

Suitable for

• Adapting 1/4" sockets or bits for use with 3/8" ratchets and handles
• Automotive repair and maintenance where mixed drive sizes are present
• General workshop and assembly tasks requiring quick interchange of fittings

Key specifications

• Drive conversion: 3/8" female to 1/4" male
• Overall length: 26 mm
• Material: metal construction suitable for hand tool use
• Connection type: square drive interface for standard sockets and accessories

How to use

Insert the adapter's 3/8" female end onto the 3/8" male drive of a ratchet, handle or extension bar until it seats firmly. Attach the desired 1/4" socket or bit to the 1/4" male end, ensuring the accessory engages the square drive and any detent or locking mechanism if present. Use the adapted combination under hand-applied torque or within the rated limits of the tool system, avoiding impact tool use unless specifically rated for it.

Usage recommendations

Verify fit before use and avoid exceeding the torque capacity of smaller 1/4" accessories when driven from a 3/8" tool. For repetitive high-torque or impact applications, choose matched drive-size tools to prevent accelerated wear or damage.
