STANLEY STMT73330-8B 16mm Deep Socket in Kolhapur

What Is the STANLEY STMT73330-8B 16 mm Deep Socket?

The STMT73330-8B is a 16 mm, 6-point, 1/2-inch-drive deep hex socket made for manual ratchet and compatible hand-tool operations. The six-sided profile is designed for matching hexagonal fasteners, while the deep pattern gives useful clearance around an extended stud. STANLEY's catalogue identifies the socket as chrome vanadium steel and describes its Maxi-Drive profile as helping reduce fastener-corner rounding. It is not designated as an impact socket: use an appropriately rated impact socket for power-impact equipment.

Verified STMT73330-8B Technical Specifications

Fitment note: 16 mm refers to the across-flats fastener size, while 1/2 inch refers to the square drive used to attach the socket to a compatible hand tool. These are different measurements. Before ordering, check the fastener size, drive size, socket clearance and usable insertion depth.

Why Choose a 6-Point Deep Socket?

1. Recessed access: The 79 mm catalogue length provides a deeper body than a standard shallow socket, useful where a hex nut sits below surrounding components.
2. Stud clearance: A deep barrel can accommodate projecting threads, subject to the actual socket cavity depth and fastener geometry.
3. Six-point engagement: The hexagonal contact profile helps engage properly sized six-sided fasteners rather than relying on 12-point corner engagement.
4. Chrome vanadium construction: Suitable for the hand-operated tool category defined in the STANLEY catalogue, with care and correct tool selection.
5. Single-size maintenance replacement: Purchase the exact 16 mm model to replace a missing size in a 1/2-inch drive socket kit rather than replacing an entire set.

Kolhapur Workshop, Automotive and Industrial Uses

For service teams and industrial buyers in Kolhapur, common matching tasks include manual loosening or tightening of 16 mm hex nuts on service assemblies, equipment frames, vehicle components and maintenance fixtures where those exact fastener dimensions are present. The deep pattern is particularly helpful when a threaded stud projects beyond the nut or surrounding parts limit standard socket reach. It is not a guarantee of fit for every car model, wheel nut or anchor bolt: inspect the fastener size and access geometry first.
For procurement, check whether an individual replacement socket or a full socket set is more economical. Kolhapur workshops ordering several sockets can use the merchant's pack-of-6 listing and confirm unit/pack prices before payment. Indus MegaMart's hand-tools page describes its Kolhapur NCR business focus and broader project-based supply, but no separate Kolhapur-only warehouse or instant-delivery promise is established here.

Deep vs Standard vs Impact Socket: Select the Right Tool

Safety and torque selection: Do not use the STMT73330-8B on powered impact tools. Select a correctly fitted 1/2-inch hand driver, observe the equipment manufacturer's torque specification, and use a suitable calibrated torque wrench for controlled tightening. Inspect damaged or worn fasteners and socket faces before applying force. A 6-point geometry can help limit corner damage, but cannot prevent every rounding or failure event.

Check live order details and pincode support before payment, since dispatch and serviceability may vary.
For institutional orders, specify model STMT73330-8B, 16 mm, 1/2-inch drive, 6-point deep, required number of sockets/packs and the Kolhapur delivery pincode. Do not confuse the historic catalogue's box quantity with the merchant's current minimum purchasable quantity.

FAQs About STANLEY STMT73330-8B

1. What size fastener does STMT73330-8B fit?

It is designed for a 16 mm hexagonal fastener. Confirm that the nut or bolt head measures 16 mm across the flats before use.

2. Is its drive size 16 mm or 1/2 inch?

Both numbers describe different features: 16 mm is the fastener opening; 1/2 inch (12.7 mm) is the square-drive connection for the ratchet or torque wrench.

3. What is the benefit of its deep profile?

The deeper socket body can reach nuts on longer studs or inside recessed areas where a shorter socket does not have adequate access, subject to actual cavity clearance.

4. Can I use this STANLEY socket with an impact wrench?

No impact rating is established for this model. STANLEY lists the relevant 6-point deep socket series for manual use. Choose a designated impact-rated socket for a power-impact wrench.

5. What material is the socket made from?

The STANLEY catalogue specifies chrome vanadium steel and the 6-point Maxi-Drive profile for the deep-socket series.

6. What is its published length?

The STANLEY catalogue lists the STMT73330-8B at 79 mm overall length, with D1 23.3 mm and D2 22.5 mm in its dimension table. Verify actual fit in the target assembly.

7. Is the item sold individually or in packs of six?

The product is a single-socket model, but Indus MegaMart's national listing displayed a pack of six at the research check. Review the live sale unit and quantity selector; other retailers may use different pack conventions.

8. Can I order in Kolhapur if the displayed stock is zero?

Under Indus MegaMart's stated policy, orders and payments can still be accepted when stock is zero. The stated timeline in that case is 7–14 days, subject to the live order and delivery pincode process.

9. Is the 16 mm deep socket the same as a 16 mm spark-plug socket?

No. This is a general 16 mm deep hex socket. A dedicated spark-plug socket has application-specific design considerations, so choose the specified tool for spark-plug servicing.

10. Where can I check the latest price and buy STMT73330-8B?

Use Indus MegaMart's exact STMT73330-8B national product page to review the current pack price, GST, order quantity, delivery terms and payment process.
