SKU CH-WM3S-BE18A

A 1/2 inch drive deep impact socket with 6-point precision fit and radiused corners to prevent fastener round-off

  • High-visibility laser and permanent stamped size markings won't wear off
  • 6-point opening grips hex fastener flats for exact fit
  • Radiused corners apply force to flat sides to prevent round-off
  • Deep interior well allows better fastener engagement in more situations
  • Meets 1.3 times ANSI/ASME proof torque standard for strength

What it is

The TEKTON 23025 is a 1/2 inch drive impact socket with a 1 inch deep 6-point opening. It is built for mechanics and technicians who need reliable engagement on hex fasteners during high-torque applications.

Deciding specification

The socket meets a minimum of 1.3 times the ANSI/ASME standard for proof torque, confirming its strength for heavy-duty impact work. This rating is the single figure that verifies the tool can handle repeated high-stress use without failure.

What the markings change

High-visibility laser etching and a permanent stamped marking both identify the size, so the socket remains readable after years of shop wear. Radiused corners direct force onto fastener flats instead of corners, reducing round-off, while the deep interior well allows better engagement on longer bolt threads.

Questions about this item

How does meeting 1.3 times the ANSI/ASME proof torque standard translate to real-world use?

It means the socket is tested well beyond the minimum torque required for a 1-inch fastener, so it handles high-torque impact work without cracking or rounding.

What does the 1/2 inch drive interface cap in terms of tool compatibility?

The 1/2 inch square drive fits standard 1/2 inch impact wrenches and ratchets, working with both friction ring and detent pin anvil types for secure retention.

What clearance does the deep socket design need to fit over a fastener?

The extended interior well reaches further onto long bolts or studs, allowing full engagement where a standard socket would bottom out.
