Product Description
Brief Overview
This 1/2″ drive, 6-point short impact socket is engineered for pneumatic impact wrench applications where compact length and rapid fastener engagement are essential. The short profile reduces tool reach into tight spaces, while the matte black finish and reinforced construction indicate impact-rated durability. The six-point recess design minimizes cam-out and distributes load more evenly than 12-point alternatives, making it ideal for stubborn or heavily corroded fasteners in automotive service, industrial maintenance, and equipment repair. Pair this with heavy-duty 3/4-inch drive impact sockets for a complete workshop solution across multiple drive sizes.
Key Features
- 1/2″ Square Drive: Standard pneumatic tool compatibility
