Six Point Standard Sockets (3/8, 7/16, 1/2, 9/16, 5/8, 11/16, 3/4, 13/16, 7/8, 15/16, 1)

What are the most common SAE socket sizes?

Socket sizes are measured based on imperial system inches and fractions. Some of the commonly used SAE sizes are 3/8 in., 5/8 in., and 11/16 in. sockets.

Are 3/4 and 19mm the same?

19mm = 3/4 inch. 20mm = 25/32 inch. 21mm = just over 13/16 inch. 22mm = almost 7/8 inch.

What is the next size up from 7 8?

Bolt Diameter	Metric	Standard
1/2"	19mm	3/4"
9/16"	21mm	13/16"

How do you guess the size of a socket?

How to Determine the Right Size Socket for a Nut

Turn on the digital caliper and set it to read in inches, not millimeters.
Close the caliper jaws until each jaw rests on one flat side of the nut on opposite sides.
Check the caliper display. ...
Turn on the digital caliper and set it to read in millimeters, not inches.

How do I know my socket size?

The size of the drive hole is determined by usage and torque demand. Common measurements are as follows: 1/4”(6.3mm), 3/8”(9.5mm), 1/2”(12.7mm), 3/4”(19.0mm) and 1”(25.4mm)。

What does SAE on sockets stand for?

SAE stands for Society of Automotive Engineers. This form of measurement was used primarily on cars made in the USA. This is why more often than not if you're in the United States, you're most likely finding wrenches and sockets in SAE sizings. AE sockets are sized in inches and fractions of inches.

What sizes are in a SAE socket set?

Metric and Standard (SAE) sockets come in three available drive sizes: 1/4 inch, 3/8 inch, and 1/2 inch. The measurement refers to the size of the square used to attach the to socket to a wrench or a ratchet.

Does SAE mean standard?

SAE, or standard, is used on most domestic models, while metric applies to foreign or non-domestic vehicles. Socket sets and wrench sets are among the most used tools in cases where size measuring differences are important. Notably, SAE tools are measured in fractions of inches, from 5/32 to 2 ½ inches.

Can I use a 3/4 socket instead of a 19mm?

No, there's no need to get a 19mm socket, and it will present no difference in performance just because the number on the side is different.

What's the same as 3 4 in metric?

BOLT DIAMETER	STANDARD	METRIC
1/2"	3/4"	19mm
9/16"	13/16"	21mm
-	7/8"	22mm
5/8"	15/16"	24mm

Whats bigger 3 4 or 20mm?

MM	Approximate Size In Inches	Exact Size In Inches
18mm	Just short of 3/4 Inch	0.70866 Inches
19mm	Little under 3/4 Inch	0.74803 Inches
20mm	Just short of 13/16 Inch	0.78740 Inches
21mm	Little over 13/16 Inch	0.82677 Inches

What size is 7/8 equivalent to?

SAE	Metric	Inch
	21mm	0.827
27/32"		0.844
	22mm	0.866
7/8"		0.875

What size is a 7/8 equal to?

That's the formula that our calculator uses to find that 7/8 inch to millimeters is 22.225 mm.

Can I use a 3/8 instead of 10mm?

So what is a 10mm socket equivalent? The equivalent imperial size of a 10mm socket is a 3/8 socket. Imperial sizes are known as SAE (Society of Automotive Engineers) or Standard.

What are the 3 types of sockets?

Three types of sockets are supported:

Stream sockets allow processes to communicate using TCP. A stream socket provides bidirectional, reliable, sequenced, and unduplicated flow of data with no record boundaries.
Datagram sockets allow processes to use UDP to communicate. ...
Raw sockets provide access to ICMP.

How do you measure a socket set?

Socket head sizes are measured with one of two systems: metric (millimetres) or imperial (inches). The drive socket size is always given in imperial measurements, regardless of whether it is an imperial or metric socket. This is because it is an international standard.

What are the three sizes of sockets?

There are four common socket sizes: 1/4 inch (0.6 centimeters), 3/8 inch (0.9 centimeters), 1/2 inch (1.3 centimeters) and 3/4 inch (1.9 centimeters). In-between sizes are available too, starting with 1/4 inch (0.6 centimeters) and increasing every sixteenth of an inch (0.16 centimeters).

Whats bigger 3/8 or 1/4 socket?

3/8 is expressed as 0.375 as a decimal and 1/4 is expressed as 0.25 in its decimal form. It is clear that the value of 3/8 is more than 1/4. Hence, it is bigger.

What are the 3 common sizes of ratchets?

Available with different drive sizes — 1/4 inch, 1/2 inch and 3/8 inch — to operate different size sockets. Most operate with a geared drive; those with a higher tooth count let you operate the tool with a smaller swinging motion, which is useful when there's little room to move the handle.
