ABSTRACT:
A socket holder for a set of wrench sockets can be magnetically attached to any metal surface while firmly securing the sockets therein. The socket holder has individual sleeves, each capable of receiving a socket, and a radial contracting member secured to each sleeve within the holder for the purpose of gripping the socket as it is placed within the sleeve. In one embodiment of the invention, the radial contracting member is in the form of a resilient gasket attached to the inner walls of each sleeve. In another embodiment of the invention, the radial contracting member is a foam pad secured between the outer shell and a spacer plate, wherein the foam pad has pre-cut holes to align with the socket holder sleeves.
