A socket device with an off-center slot for loosening and tightening connectors positioned in confined locations. The socket includes a socket body, a slot to allow a tube or pipe to pass there through and a nut retaining region. The nut retaining region positioned adjacent to a first face of the socket has a centerline that is offset from the centerline of the socket body. A socket driver port located in the opposing second face of the socket has a centerline that is offset from the centerline of the socket body but remains within the dimensions of the socket body. That arrangement allows socket rotation within a confined area with maximum possible mechanical advantage. The socket may have different receiving region configurations to accommodate different nut connector designs.
