    A lot of times, Craftsman sockets (and probably the Chinese Tool Store ones) will not be up to this task and will round out. Snap On has a 3/8" drive, 5/16" socket, 12 point, that is very durable. You have to grind the wall a bit more thin, though. Here is a used one on eBay:

    Another better one. I think this is the same as the one I have owned for years.

    Long live American manufacturing!
