Buy STANLEY 1-88-738 in Amritsar — Pack, Price and Ordering
The seller's listed unit is one pack containing six 16 mm sockets of the same model. The manufacturer's single-socket product specification describes what each tool is; it does not mean Indus Mega Mart's six-piece pack contains an assortment of sizes or a full ratchet set. The ratchet handle and other drive accessories are not listed as contents of this offer.
The current selling price and its GST-inclusive basis can be checked on the product listing. For a meaningful comparison with another retailer, first confirm whether that offer is for one socket or six and whether the displayed amount includes GST.

Pack of six matching 16 mm sockets |
The 16 mm measurement refers to the nut or bolt-head opening, while 1/2 inch describes the square drive on the tool side. The dimensions are not interchangeable. If you have a 3/8-inch ratchet or an incompatible drive interface, this socket will not attach directly without a suitable, correctly rated adapter.
What the Six-Point Design Changes in Practice
The six-point opening makes contact with the flats of a compatible hexagonal fastener, providing a straightforward fit for manual tightening and loosening. STANLEY's Maxi-Drive design is intended to reduce the risk of rounding fastener heads; it is not a promise that damaged or severely corroded hardware will never round off.
This 16 mm tool is a standard socket, not a deep socket. It makes sense when the fastener head is reachable without the extra depth required for a long projecting stud. Before ordering for a recessed fastener or obstructed assembly, inspect working clearance and whether a deep or differently shaped socket would be needed.
A six-point 16 mm socket is also distinct from a 16 mm impact socket. STANLEY specifies this model for manual use. Do not attach it to a powered or pneumatic impact wrench on the assumption that its 1/2-inch drive makes it impact-ready. Select a designated impact-rated socket for those applications.
Fit, Tool Compatibility and Suitable Work
Use STANLEY 1-88-738 when the fastener has an actual 16 mm hexagonal head, the job calls for a six-point socket, and a suitable manual 1/2-inch square-drive handle or torque wrench is available. It can be considered for machine-tool service, equipment assembly, mechanical maintenance and workshop jobs where this fastener dimension is present. Suitability depends on the real fastener, clearance and the tightening procedure—not the industry label alone.
Check the fastener before selecting the socket
Measure across the flats of the nut or bolt head. A 16 mm hex opening does not automatically mean that the threaded bolt is 16 mm in diameter, and it does not determine the required tightening torque. Use the machine or fastener manufacturer's tightening specification rather than a guessed torque value.
Check the drive handle and work area
Confirm that the handle has a compatible 1/2-inch square drive, that the socket is fully seated and that the work area allows straight, controlled manual engagement. For recessed nuts, protruding studs or restricted access, review whether this standard-depth shape will reach the fastener before choosing the tool.
For maintenance and procurement teams
A six-piece pack can be practical where several toolboxes, benches or maintenance kits require the same 16 mm socket. Each item in this listing is the same 1-88-738 model, not six mixed metric sizes. Teams ordering replacement sockets should match the engraved/model specification in their existing inventory and check the current order multiple on the product page.
Amritsar Ordering, GST Invoices and Delivery
For Amritsar deliveries, the key practical checks are the delivery PIN code, order quantity, available stock and current price. Indus Mega Mart accepts orders and payments even if displayed available stock is zero. Under its ordering policy, a quantity that can be fulfilled from available stock has a delivery window of within seven days; when the order exceeds available stock—including zero available stock—the stated window is 7–14 days. Confirm serviceability and the applicable order status before completing a purchase.
The Indus Mega Mart purchase invoice includes the company's GST number. Buyers who require purchase-order references, a particular invoice format or supporting procurement documents should confirm those details with the seller before placing a large institutional order. The STANLEY brand range and Socket & Socket Sets category can also help buyers review other tools, but this listing is for the specific 16 mm socket only.
Questions About STANLEY 1-88-738
1. Is this a 16 mm socket or a 1/2-inch socket?
Both: the socket fits compatible 16 mm hexagonal fastener heads, and its tool-side connector is a 1/2-inch square drive. These measurements describe different parts of the socket.
2. How many sockets are supplied in one Indus Mega Mart pack?
The listed selling pack contains six matching STANLEY 1-88-738 16 mm sockets. It is not a six-size socket set, and a ratchet handle is not listed as included.
3. Is STANLEY 1-88-738 suitable for an impact wrench?
No impact rating is established for this model. STANLEY specifically states manual use; choose a manufacturer-designated impact socket for powered impact fastening.
4. Can I use it with a manual torque wrench?
It has a 1/2-inch square drive, so it may connect to a compatible manual 1/2-inch-drive torque wrench. Verify the wrench's drive fit, the application's tightening instructions and any tool limitations. The socket model alone does not establish an allowable torque figure.
5. Does a 16 mm socket fit an M16 bolt?
Not automatically. Socket size identifies the head width across flats. Metric bolt thread diameter and head width are different measurements, so choose the socket by the actual hex-head dimensions.
6. What is the difference between a standard and deep 16 mm socket?
A standard-depth socket is intended for reachable heads without unusually long stud clearance. A deep socket provides additional access for recessed fasteners or protruding studs; assess the assembly before selecting either.
7. Can I place an order if the stock display shows zero?
Yes. Indus Mega Mart's stated policy allows ordering and payment even when stock is zero, with the 7–14-day delivery window applying to zero-stock orders, subject to the delivery check.
8. Is the displayed price per socket or per six-piece pack?
Indus Mega Mart lists this item as a six-piece pack. Compare the complete pack price including GST, not a separate unit breakdown, against offers for single sockets.
9. Can I get a GST invoice when ordering for my Amritsar workshop?
Purchase invoices include the company's GST number. Check your billing details and any additional procurement documentation requirements with the seller before checkout.
