The four socket handles are available in which drive socket sizes?

• A. 1/4 inch, 3/8 inch, or 1/2 inch drive sockets.
• B. 1/8 inch, 1/4 inch, or 3/8 inch drive sockets.
• C. 1/2 inch, 3/4 inch, or 1 inch drive sockets.
• D. 1/16 inch, 1/8 inch, or 3/16 inch drive sockets.

Answer: (A)

Drive size is about the square recess that fits into a ratchet. The four socket handles in a typical set are built to fit three common drive sizes: 1/4 inch, 3/8 inch, and 1/2 inch. These cover a broad range of fasteners—from light, precision work to larger bolts that require more torque. The smaller 1/4-inch drive is handy for cramped spaces and small fasteners, the 3/8-inch drive handles most general-purpose sockets, and the 1/2-inch drive tackles larger fasteners with higher torque. Other options mix sizes that aren’t part of the standard three-drive set, so they don’t fit the typical configuration for four handles.
