Description

1/2-Inch Drive Deep Impact Socket, 13mm (Model 544613P)

Brief Overview

This is a professional-grade deep impact socket engineered for 1/2-inch drive impact wrenches and pneumatic tools. The 13mm size addresses a critical fastener in automotive assembly, engine work, and industrial maintenance. Built with thick-walled, impact-rated construction, it delivers the durability your customers expect in high-torque applications. Stock this alongside larger metric sockets and 3/4-inch drive variants to round out a complete socket system for your resale operation.

Key Features

  • 6-Point Hexagonal Profile: Reduces rounding and cam-out on metric fasteners, critical for reusable socket longevity
  • Deep Socket Design: Extended reach (78mm length) for fasteners recessed in engine blocks, transmission housings, and frame applications
  • Impact-Rated Construction: Thick-walled body withstands shock loads from pneumatic impact wrenches without fracturing or deforming
  • 1/2-Inch Square Drive: Standard industrial coupling; compatible with all 1/2" drive impact tools and extension bars
  • Matte Black Oxide Finish: Corrosion-resistant surface; protects against rust and extends tool life in damp or salt-spray environments
  • Retaining Pin Slot: Secure fitment on impact tool drives; prevents accidental socket ejection during operation

Business Advantages for Your Operation

High-Velocity Inventory Turnover The 13mm metric size is one of the most-called fasteners in automotive teardown and reassembly. Mechanics reach for this size constantly—every engine swap, transmission job, or suspension overhaul uses 13mm bolts.

Durability = Repeat Orders Impact sockets fail only under extreme abuse (cross-threading, wrong drive size, over-torque). This socket's thick-wall construction means your customers buy it once per toolkit, then refer friends when they need reliability.

Professional Positioning Resellers stocking impact-rated sockets position themselves as suppliers who understand the difference between hand-tool sockets and impact-grade equipment. This builds trust and commands better margins than "universal" socket sets.

Complementary Sales Pair this 13mm socket with 26mm deep sockets, 34mm variants, and 3/4-inch drive deep sockets to create complete metric impact socket sets. Customers buying one size typically purchase 3–5 additional sizes within the same order.

Application Context

Automotive Repair & Heavy Equipment Engine bolt removal, transmission pan bolts, suspension component fastening, and brake caliper mounting all rely on 13mm sockets. Deep sockets are non-negotiable for recessed fasteners in cylinder head work and transmission teardown.

Industrial Maintenance Pneumatic impact tools are standard in factories, assembly lines, and shipyards. A 13mm deep socket is essential inventory for any facility running metric fastener systems.

Professional Tool Kits Technicians building or upgrading impact socket sets view deep sockets as mandatory. This 78mm length covers fasteners standard tools cannot reach.

Why This Socket Matters for Your Resale Strategy

Impact sockets are not impulse purchases—they are wear items born from hard use. When a socket fails under impact load, the technician needs an immediate replacement. Stocking this 13mm deep variant means you capture emergency orders and build customer loyalty through reliability.

The 6-point design prevents the rounding damage that frustrates mechanics and forces them to buy replacement fasteners they shouldn't need. This translates to customer satisfaction and repeat business.
