Description

1/2-Inch Drive 6-Point Long Impact Socket

Overview

This 1/2-inch drive 6-point long impact socket is engineered for professional mechanics and fleet operators who demand reliability under high-torque pneumatic and cordless impact applications. Available in 18 sizes from 10mm to 36mm, this socket delivers the durability needed for heavy fastening and disassembly work. The 78mm length provides extended reach for recessed fasteners, making it ideal for engine work, suspension assembly, and industrial maintenance tasks. For distributors stocking multiple sizes, consider pairing this with deep-reach impact sockets to maximize customer coverage across job sites.

Key Features

  • 6-Point Hex Design: Grips fastener flats securely, minimizing cam-out and fastener damage during impact operation
  • Impact-Grade Chrome-Moly Construction: Forged steel with hardened surface resists shock loads and extends socket life in demanding conditions
  • Extended Length (78mm): Long-style design reaches recessed fasteners on modern engines and assemblies
  • 1/2-Inch Square Drive: Compatible with all 1/2-inch pneumatic and cordless impact wrenches
  • Retaining Pin Slot: Built-in detent hole prevents accidental socket separation during use
  • Black Impact Finish: Durable matte coating identifies these as impact-rated tools and resists corrosion
  • Size Range 10-36mm: Comprehensive coverage for metric fasteners across automotive and industrial applications

Business Advantages for Resellers

  • Bulk Stock Opportunity: 18 distinct sizes allow you to build a complete socket line and capture multiple sale points per customer order
  • Essential Mechanics' Tool: Every professional shop requires impact sockets—consistent, repeat demand from your customer base
  • Margin-Friendly: Impact sockets carry stable wholesale margins with predictable sell-through rates
  • Cross-Sell Ready: Pair with chrome-molybdenum long impact socket sets or individual socket SKUs to increase average transaction value
  • Durability Reduces Returns: Chrome-moly construction means fewer warranty claims compared to lower-grade alternatives

Application Notes

These long impact sockets excel in scenarios where standard-length sockets fall short:

  • Engine Disassembly: Spark plug wells, engine block fasteners, and transmission pan bolts benefit from the extended reach
  • Suspension Work: Steering knuckle fasteners and suspension arm bolts on modern vehicles
  • Industrial Machinery: Heavy equipment fastening where depth and accessibility are critical
  • Fleet Maintenance: High-volume shops running multiple impact guns can stock all sizes to minimize tool-change downtime

Stock Recommendation

For professional mechanics and fleet operations, offering complete size runs (10-36mm) captures the full market opportunity. Smaller shops may prioritize the most common sizes (13, 17, 19, 21, 24, 27, 32mm), while larger operations justify the full 18-piece assortment for maximum tool availability and reduced crew frustration.
