Socket 3/8" drive YATO YT-3822, 63 mm length, single piece

YATO YT-3822 is a single 3/8" drive socket with a 63 mm length designed for fastening and loosening nuts and bolts. The socket provides a standard square drive interface compatible with most 3/8" ratchets and extensions, delivering additional reach for applications where access is limited. The durable construction and precise internal profiling enable reliable engagement with hex fasteners while reducing the risk of rounding.

Advantages

The 63 mm length offers extended reach compared with standard short sockets, making it easier to access recessed or hard-to-reach fasteners. Manufactured to industry dimensions, the socket fits common ratchet handles and extensions without adapters. Its single-piece design simplifies selection and storage when a specific length and drive size are required. The precise internal machining helps ensure a snug fit on hex heads to improve torque transfer and reduce slippage.

Suitable for

• Automotive repair and maintenance where deeper fasteners are present
• Mechanical and assembly work requiring extra reach
• General maintenance and DIY projects with recessed bolts

Key specifications

• Drive size: 3/8" (square drive)
• Overall length: 63 mm
• Type: single socket (one-piece)
• Intended fastener shape: hexagonal nuts and bolts
• Compatibility: designed for use with 3/8" ratchets and extensions

How to use

Select the socket that matches the fastener size, attach it securely to a compatible 3/8" ratchet or extension, and place the socket over the nut or bolt head. Apply steady turning force through the ratchet in the required direction to loosen or tighten the fastener. For improved access in confined spaces, pair the socket with a suitable extension bar or universal joint. Inspect the socket before use for visible damage and ensure the drive detent or retaining mechanism on the ratchet engages securely.

Usage recommendations

Use the socket within the rated torque limits of your ratchet and avoid applying impact force unless the socket is specifically rated for impact use. Keep the socket clean and store in a dry place to prevent corrosion. For repeat high-torque applications, verify fastener and tool compatibility to reduce wear on both the socket and the fastener.
