1/2 Inch Drive 38 mm Socket

This TEKTON socket is a 1/2 inch drive 6-point tool sized at 38 mm. It fits standard ratchets and breaker bars for automotive and heavy equipment work. The socket is sold new and ships directly from the manufacturer.

Mechanics needing a single 38 mm socket

It suits technicians who need one 38 mm 6-point socket for a specific fastener. It is not for buyers looking for a full socket set or a storage case. It is not for users who need a different drive size or a different socket profile.

38 mm 6-point opening

The critical specification is the 38 mm 6-point opening matched to a 1/2 inch drive. This exact size determines whether the socket fits the fastener and the turning tool you own.

Questions about this item

What drive-size ratchet or breaker bar do I need to turn this 1/2 inch drive socket?

A 1/2 inch drive ratchet, breaker bar or impact wrench fits the square drive on this 38 mm 6-point socket.

Can I use this 38 mm socket on the same bolts as my older 1/2 inch drive sockets?

Yes — any fastener that takes a 38 mm 6-point socket will work with this tool alongside your existing 1/2 inch drive set.

How do I confirm the 6-point profile is engaging the fastener correctly after I seat the socket?

The socket should sit flat on the bolt head with no rocking; when turned, the flats grip evenly and the corners stay intact.
