  • Product typeBent Nose Pliers
  • Color and finishBlack Oxide
  • Deep socket clears long bolts with 25 mm clearance

1/2-Inch Drive Deep Impact Socket

This 1/2-inch drive deep impact socket is built for mechanics and technicians who need reliable fastener engagement on heavy-duty equipment. The 6-point design grips flats securely to reduce rounding under high torque. Black oxide finish resists corrosion in shop environments.

Upgrade from Standard Chrome Sockets

Standard chrome sockets can crack or shatter under impact loads, creating a safety hazard. This chrome molybdenum alloy steel socket meets DIN 3121 for impact use, so the jump is worth it whenever you pair it with an impact gun or breaker bar on stubborn hardware.

1-3/8 Inch SAE Size with 25 mm Bolt Clearance

The deep well provides 25 mm of bolt clearance, comfortably handling long studs and recessed nuts on trucks, agricultural machinery and industrial assemblies. It runs out when the fastener exceeds 1-3/8 inch SAE or when a 12-point profile is required for damaged heads.

Questions about this item

What drive size does the 1/2 in Drive Impact Socket require for mounting?

The socket fits a 1/2 in drive, matching the DIN 3121 standard for impact-rated tools.

How do you install the deep impact socket, and what step is often missed?

Press the socket onto the 1/2 in drive anvil until the detent pin locks; the missed step is confirming the pin is fully seated before applying torque.

When should the black oxide impact socket be replaced?

Replace it if the 6-point opening shows rounding, cracks appear in the chrome molybdenum alloy steel, or the manganese phosphate coating wears through.
