Manufacturing defect???

Post by RMCK »

Hello everyone.

I came across a vintage snap on socket that is a 1/4 drive deep 11/16 12 point. I don't recall ever seeing one like this before. Is it a defect when it was produced?

Thank you for the information.

Never thought to google the part number. Boy do I feel dumb. The number is SF-221, that number indicates it is a 3/8 drive. The date code looks to be 1952. So I guess it is a defect.
