This is a 7/32" AF 12‑point Hi‑Torq socket with a 1/4in square drive, designed to engage small imperial fasteners where space is limited and repeatable torque application is required. The socket provides a compact, bi‑hex (12‑point) head form that allows quicker alignment on fasteners and improved access in confined or recessed positions compared with larger head types.

The socket is manufactured from chrome‑vanadium (Cr‑V) steel, heat treated and tempered for long service life and resistance to deformation under load. It is finished with a bright chrome plating to resist corrosion and to make cleaning simple after use. The tool conforms to common dimensional standards for 1/4in square‑drive sockets (manufactured to DIN/ISO socket profiles where applicable) and is compatible with standard 1/4in drive ratchets, extensions and torque tools. As a socket tool it has no thread form; the drive interface is the industry standard 1/4in male square, and the working end is a 12‑point / bi‑hex internal profile sized at 7/32" across flats.

Typical applications include light‑duty mechanical assembly, instrumentation, bicycle and motorcycle maintenance, electrical enclosure work and general workshop repair where small imperial fasteners are used. The 12‑point Hi‑Torq profile is particularly useful for fast tightening and for use on fasteners that are accessed at shallow angles; it can also be used on 6‑point hex heads in many situations where higher engagement points are helpful.

Key benefits include the corrosion resistance of the chrome finish, the strength and fatigue resistance of heat‑treated Cr‑V material, and broad compatibility with standard 1/4in drive toolsets. The Hi‑Torq 12‑point geometry helps reduce cam‑out and improves repeatability when working in restricted spaces, while the small 7/32" size addresses fine‑thread imperial fasteners often found in specialist equipment.
