12-Point 3/4-Inch Drive Impact Socket, 34mm, Chrome-Molybdenum
Brief Overview
This is a professional-grade impact socket engineered for high-torque pneumatic impact wrenches. The 34mm size positions it squarely in the mid-range for automotive fasteners—ideal for suspension, wheel, and drivetrain work. The 12-point internal profile provides superior engagement on hexagonal fasteners while minimizing the risk of rounding. Chrome-molybdenum construction delivers the toughness required for repeated impact cycles without chipping or cracking.
If you stock this size, consider pairing it with smaller 27-32mm impact sockets and larger 35-36mm variants to offer your customers a complete mid-range fastener solution.
Key Features
- 12-Point Double-Hex Profile: Enhanced fastener grip with reduced cam-out. Minimizes damage to bolt heads on repeated use.
- 3/4-Inch Square Drive: Compatibility with standard heavy-duty pneumatic impact wrenches and air-powered tooling.
- Chrome-Molybdenum Construction: Superior impact resistance and durability compared to standard chrome sockets. Handles sustained high-torque applications without fatigue failure.
- Thick-Walled Design: Reinforced geometry absorbs shock loads from pneumatic impacts, extending tool life and reducing operational breakage.
- Retaining Pin Groove: External annular groove secures the socket to the drive with a snap ring, preventing accidental separation during fast tool changes.
- Matte Black Finish: Corrosion-resistant coating protects against moisture and rust in workshop and field environments.
- Clear Size Markings: Laser-etched or printed identification for quick tool identification in high-volume shops.
Business Advantages for Resellers
- High Turnover Item: 34mm is a core fastener size in automotive work—fleet shops, dealerships, and independent technicians all keep this size in inventory.
- Margin-Friendly: Impact sockets command stronger margins than standard hand-tool sockets due to specialized materials and manufacturing.
- Bulk-Order Opportunity: Shops typically purchase in sets or by the dozen. Offer tiered pricing for 12+ unit orders.
- Complement Existing Stock: Pairs seamlessly with impact wrenches, ratchets, and breaker bars already in your catalog. Bundle recommendations increase basket value.
- Replacement Demand: Even with proper care, impact sockets wear out. This creates recurring revenue as customers return for replacements.

Why This Socket Matters
Impact sockets are not interchangeable with standard hand-tool sockets. The thicker walls and specialized materials absorb the rapid, directional shock from pneumatic impacts without micro-fractures. A standard socket will crack under sustained impact use. This 34mm socket is built to withstand thousands of cycles in a professional shop environment, making it a critical wear item that keeps technicians productive.
The 12-point profile is the sweet spot for fastener security—it grips better than 6-point sockets (reducing slip and bolt head damage) while remaining versatile across common metric fastener sizes in automotive work.
