About Socket Sets

Start with the drive size. 1/4 inch drive suits small fasteners in electronics and panel work, 3/8 inch is the all-round size for motor workshops, 1/2 inch handles most automotive and machinery bolts, and 3/4 inch or 1 inch drive is for heavy vehicles, earthmovers and plant maintenance. Check that the sizes in a set match your fasteners, metric (mm) or AF (inch), and whether you need standard or deep sockets for long studs.

Six-point (hexagon) sockets grip a nut on its flats and are less likely to round a tight bolt; twelve-point or UD-profile sockets give more angles in tight spaces. Use impact sockets, not chrome hand sockets, on impact wrenches. This page also lists single sockets, ratchets, extensions, cardan joints, adapters, cross handles and crowfoot wrenches, so you can extend a set you already own. VDE insulated sockets are made for live electrical work up to their marked voltage. Match each accessory to the drive size of your ratchet.

We list GEDORE, Taparia, Groz, Stanley, Makita and other brands at prices that include GST, with a GST invoice on every order and delivery across India. Workshops, fleet operators and maintenance teams buying several units can ask for a bulk quotation.

Questions buyers ask

Which socket drive size should I buy for car and bike repair?

3/8 inch drive covers most car and bike work. Add 1/2 inch drive for wheel nuts and suspension bolts, and 1/4 inch for small screws.

Can I use normal sockets on an impact wrench?

No. Use impact sockets made for impact tools. Chrome hand sockets are not designed for impact loads and can crack.

Can I buy single sockets or extensions to complete my set?

Yes. Single sockets, extensions, adapters and ratchets are listed separately. Match the drive size, the fastener size and metric or AF type.

Do prices include GST?

Yes. Prices include GST and every order gets a GST invoice.
