A socket bit is a tool designed for use with power drills and impact drivers. These bits come in various shapes and sizes to fit different types of power tools and are attached to the end of the rotating shaft of the tool for versatile applications.
Socket bits are utilized in a wide range of power tools, including power drills, impact drivers, socket wrenches, and manual screwdrivers. Their applications extend from DIY projects to small-scale store renovations and large-scale construction work on commercial buildings.
Socket bits are joined to the power tool by inserting them into the rotating shaft. Most socket bits are hexagonal, and there are several sizes for different tools. For instance, 5 mm, 6.35 mm, and 8 mm are common sizes for electric and air screwdrivers, while smaller electric screwdrivers may use 4 or 5 mm diagonals.

Socket bits are classified into five hardness levels based on their intended use. The categories range from S and E (lowest hardness) to X (highest hardness), each suited for specific applications like high-impact tools, tapping screws, wood screws, self-drilling screws, and precision small screws.
Hexagon socket bits, used for fastening hexagonal bolts, come in various types:
