36026-47/ -48 Hex Bit Socket Set | ⅜” Drive | 7 & 8-Piece

Technical Architecture & Set Configurations

• Internal Hex (Hexagon) Drive Geometry: These bit socket sets utilize a standard 6-sided hexagonal profile. The bits are precision-ground to ensure a zero-tolerance fit within internal hex fasteners, maximizing surface contact and torque transfer.
• Strategic Set Logic:
  • 36026-47 (7-Piece Set): Metric range including: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 10mm.
  • 36026-48 (8-Piece Set): Expanded metric range including: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10, and 12mm.
• Hybrid Metallurgy Architecture:
  • Bits: Forged from S2 Tool Steel, heat-treated to an optimal Rockwell hardness (HRC 58–62). This provides the essential elasticity to absorb rotational shock.
  • Sockets: Manufactured from Chrome Vanadium (Cr-V), ensuring structural rigidity and high resistance to bursting under load.
• 3/8″ Square Drive Interface: The mid-sized drive platform offers the perfect balance of accessibility and torque capacity, bridging the gap between precision 1/4″ sets and heavy-duty 1/2″ sets.
• Professional Blow Mold Storage Case: Both configurations are housed in a heavy-duty Plastic Blow Mold Case. This mechanical logic ensures secure tool retention, rapid inventory identification, and protection against the harsh chemical environments of industrial workshops.

B2B Procurement & Workshop ROI

• Standardized Torque Performance: These sets meet and exceed international torque standards, ensuring safe operation in safety-critical automotive (braking/chassis) and industrial assembly.
• Reduced Total Cost of Ownership (TCO): The use of S2 steel significantly outlasts standard Chrome Vanadium bits, reducing the frequency of tool replacements and preventing costly fastener extraction rework.
• Anti-Corrosion Industrial Finish: Sockets feature a high-polish mirror chrome finish, while bits are treated with a manganese phosphate coating to resist oxidation and chemical wear.

FAQ Section

• What sizes are included in the 36026-48 set? This 8-piece set includes 3mm, 4mm, 5mm, 6mm, 7mm, 8mm, 10mm, and 12mm.
• What is the difference between 36026-47 and 36026-48? The 36026-47 contains 7 pieces (up to 10mm), while the 36026-48 adds the larger 12mm bit socket.
• Is the case metal or plastic? According to the technical data for the 36026 series, these sets are supplied in a durable Plastic Blow Mold Case.
• Can these be used with impact wrenches? No. These are chrome-plated hand-tool bit sockets. For power tool use, Hans Chrome Molybdenum (Cr-Mo) impact bits are required.
