Metric sockets in order

Metric sockets: Ideal for working on imported vehicles, metric sockets' sizes are measured in millimeters. The most commonly used types are 8 mm, 10 mm and 14 mm sockets.

What are the 4 socket sizes?

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).

What is the largest metric socket?

A: The largest socket is 1-1/4.

What is the next size up from 15 16?

Bolt Diameter	Metric	Standard
1/2"	19mm	3/4"
9/16"	21mm	13/16"
	22mm	7/8"
5/8"	24mm	15/16"

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.

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 does SAE stand for in tools?

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 is 7mm in standard?

SAE	Metric	Inch
	7mm	0.276
9/32"		0.281
5/16"		0.313
	8mm	0.315

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.

Why is there no 16mm wrench?

16mm and 18mm nuts / bolts are most commonly found on American vehicles that converted to metric hardware, and not import vehicles designed with metric hardware. So, you don't find them in most basic wrench / socket sets.

What is a 18mm socket in standard?

That size socket would fall between a 11/16 in and 3/4 in.

What is a 17 mm in standard?

MM	Approximate Size In Inches	Exact Size In Inches
15mm	Just short of 5/8 Inch	0.59055 Inches
16mm	5/8 Inch	0.62992 Inches
17mm	Just short of 11/16 Inch	0.66929 Inches
18mm	Just short of 3/4 Inch	0.70866 Inches

Are M10 and 3/8 the same?

That said, they are very close, the 3/8" bolt is about 0.019" smaller and the pitch's are very close so the 3/8 -16 bolt will thread in the 10mm x 1.5 but the 10 x 1.5 bolt will not fit the 3/8 but..

Is M10 same as 10mm?

If the size is M10 x 25, that would mean that the diameter is 10 mm. Since there is no thread pitch listed, the fastener is assumed to have a coarse thread.
