45-34-9078 3/8 In. Drive 8mm 6-point Shallow Metric Socket

The Milwaukee 45-34-9078 is a 3/8 inch drive shallow metric socket designed for fastening work in confined spaces and general mechanical applications. Its 8mm, 6-point design grips fasteners securely while the shallow depth allows access where standard sockets cannot fit. This socket is built to withstand the demands of both automotive work and home improvement projects.

The socket's four flat sides distinguish it from round designs by preventing rolling on work surfaces and improving compatibility with wrenches and other tools. Size markings are stamped directly into the flat sides for quick identification during use. The optimized geometry minimizes bolt rounding and stripping, preserving the integrity of fasteners and extending the working life of both socket and bolt alike.

Features and Benefits

• Four Flat Sides: Prevents rolling and improves wrench compatibility for stable, controlled fastening work.
