Socket STANLEY STMT86104-0 — 1/4" drive, metric socket, length 80 mm, width 45 mm

STANLEY STMT86104-0 is a metric socket with a 1/4" drive designed for use with standard 1/4" ratchets and extension bars. The socket is 80 mm long and 45 mm wide, with a compact and lightweight design (16 g) intended for tightening and loosening metric fasteners in automotive, mechanical and domestic applications where access is limited.

Advantages

This 1/4" drive metric socket provides a narrow profile for access in confined spaces. Its compact dimensions and low weight make it easy to assemble into tool sets and to manoeuvre during repetitive tasks. The socket's fit to standard 1/4" drives ensures compatibility with common ratchets and extensions, enabling precise control when working on small fasteners.

Suitable for

• Tightening and loosening metric bolts and nuts in automotive maintenance
• Mechanical and equipment assembly where a 1/4" drive is required
• Domestic repairs and DIY tasks with limited access
• Use with extension bars and 1/4" ratchets for precision work in confined spaces

Key specifications

• Drive type: 1/4"
• Measurement system: Metric
• Overall length: 80 mm
• Width: 45 mm
• Weight: 16 g

How to use

Select a compatible 1/4" ratchet or extension bar and attach the socket securely to the drive. Place the socket over the fastener head, ensuring full seating before applying torque. Turn the ratchet or extension bar in the required direction to tighten or loosen the fastener. For confined locations, use an appropriate extension or universal joint to achieve the required angle while maintaining a stable connection to the drive.

Usage recommendations

Inspect the socket and drive tools for wear or damage before use. Use the socket with the correct size fastener to avoid rounding; avoid excessive impact loads unless the tool is specified for impact use. Store the socket in a clean, dry place to reduce corrosion risk and maintain fit accuracy.
