Frequently Asked Questions

What is the PROTO J4706TM socket used for?

The PROTO J4706TM is a 1/4" drive hand socket used for tightening or loosening 6 mm fasteners in automotive, industrial, and mechanical applications. Its 12-point design provides better grip on hex fasteners, and the chrome construction resists corrosion in workshop environments.

What are the specifications of the PROTO J4706TM socket?

Where to buy the PROTO J4706TM socket worldwide?

How to select the correct PROTO socket for a 6 mm fastener?

For a 6 mm fastener, select a 6 mm metric socket like the PROTO J4706TM. Ensure the drive size matches your ratchet (1/4" drive). A 12-point socket offers more engagement points than a 6-point, reducing the risk of rounding the fastener. Chrome sockets are suitable for general hand-tool use.
