Description

1/2-Inch Drive 6-Point Short Impact Socket, 19mm, Cr-Mo Steel

Brief Overview

This 19mm short impact socket is purpose-built for the jobs where standard sockets simply won't fit. The exceptionally compact 28mm height makes it the ideal solution for restricted access areas—engine bays, tight suspension work, and confined machinery spaces where conventional tools create dead spots. Crafted from chrome-molybdenum steel with a matte black impact-grade finish, it delivers the durability and shock resistance your shop demands. If you work across multiple sizes, explore our full range of compact impact sockets from 8mm to 36mm to round out your kit.

Key Features

  • 6-point hex profile – Reduced surface contact minimizes fastener damage and cam-out risk
  • Cr-Mo steel construction – Superior toughness under impact loading; resists brittleness and premature fracture
  • Ultra-compact design – 28mm height engineered for tight, hard-to-reach locations
  • Retaining pin/ball socket – Factory-designed safety feature prevents accidental socket separation during rapid impact work
  • Matte black impact finish – Professional appearance and corrosion resistance typical of impact-grade tools
  • 1/2-inch drive compatibility – Pairs seamlessly with pneumatic impact wrenches and mechanical impact tools

Business Advantages for Resellers

  • High-margin accessory: Impact sockets command strong margins; customers view them as essential—not luxury items
  • Repeat purchase driver: Once a shop discovers the value of short sockets, they stock full size ranges. This is your entry point
  • Professional credibility: Stocking true impact-grade Cr-Mo tools signals expertise to your customer base
  • Bulk order potential: Mechanics and fleet operations purchase by the dozen once they experience the fit advantage
  • Complements impact wrench sales: Position alongside pneumatic tools for bundled deals

Value Proposition

This socket solves a real problem: access. A standard socket in the 19mm size typically runs 40–50mm in height. This compact version cuts that in half, opening up work areas that previously required expensive specialty tools or creative workarounds. For shops billing by the hour, access speed translates directly to profitability.

The Cr-Mo material ensures this tool handles the shock loads of pneumatic impact wrenches without chipping or cracking—a critical advantage over hardened steel alternatives that can fail catastrophically under sudden load reversals.

The integrated retaining pin/ball system is a professional-grade safety feature often overlooked on budget sockets. It prevents the socket from flying off during rapid-fire fastener removal, reducing tool loss and workplace incidents.

Ready to stock impact-grade sockets that move quickly and build customer loyalty? This 19mm short socket is the foundation—order in bulk to maximize both shelf turns and margin.
