1/2" Drive Impact Torx Socket

Overview

These 1/2" drive impact Torx sockets deliver the durability and precision your shop needs for high-torque fastening work. Built from CR-MO (chromium-molybdenum) steel with a dark impact-grade finish, they're engineered to withstand the shock loads of pneumatic impact tools without fracturing or deforming. Whether you're tackling engine assembly, transmission work, or industrial equipment maintenance, these sockets provide reliable bit engagement and consistent torque delivery. For shops looking to expand their socket inventory, consider pairing these with complementary hex bit sockets or a complete six-piece Torx impact socket set for faster job turnover.

Key Features

• CR-MO Construction: Chromium-molybdenum alloy provides superior impact resistance and durability compared to standard steel
• Impact-Grade Finish: Dark, hardened surface coating resists corrosion and extends tool life in demanding shop environments
• Precision Torx Profiles: Six-lobed star design ensures positive bit engagement and prevents cam-out on fasteners
• Detent Pin Hole: Cross-hole retention system keeps the bit securely seated in the 1/2" drive socket body
• Full Size Range: T30 through T80 coverage spans small electronics fasteners to heavy industrial bolts
• Standardized Length: 78 mm overall length across most sizes for consistent tool handling and storage

Business Advantages for Resellers

• Rapid Margin Opportunity: Impact sockets command strong wholesale-to-retail markups, with multiple size points driving repeat purchases
• High Turnover Potential: Shops performing engine work, transmission service, and industrial maintenance demand these regularly—stock depth equals sales volume
• Durability = Customer Loyalty: CR-MO construction minimizes premature failures, reducing warranty claims and building customer trust
• Bulk Order Flexibility: Individual sizes or full range purchases allow you to match customer demand and shelf space exactly
• Professional Positioning: Offering complete Torx coverage positions your shop as a full-service fastening solution provider

Why These Sockets Matter

Torx fasteners are now standard across automotive, industrial equipment, and electronics assembly. Unlike Phillips or slotted drives, Torx profiles distribute load across six contact points, reducing fastener damage and operator fatigue. The impact-grade CR-MO construction is essential—standard sockets can shatter under pneumatic tool shock loads, creating safety risks and unexpected downtime. These sockets are built to handle that punishment without compromise.

The torque ratings scale logically with size: larger profiles (T70, T80) handle the heavy work, while smaller sizes (T30, T35) address precision assembly. This makes the full range commercially attractive—you're not selling niche sizes; you're covering real shop demand across multiple service categories.

Call to Action
