Description

23mm Deep Impact Socket, 3/4" Drive, 6-Point, 90mm Length

Overview

This 23mm deep impact socket is purpose-built for demanding automotive and industrial applications where standard sockets fall short. The 6-point design distributes impact force across the fastener, reducing cam-out and extending tool life on rounded or damaged bolts. The extended 90mm depth reaches fasteners in recessed or hard-to-access locations—critical for engine work, suspension assembly, and heavy equipment maintenance.

Part of a comprehensive 3/4" drive impact socket range that includes 22mm and 24mm variants for adjacent fastener sizes, ensuring your inventory covers the most common metric requirements.

Key Features

  • 6-Point Internal Profile: Optimized for impact work; reduces corner rounding on fasteners compared to 12-point designs
  • Deep Socket Design: 90mm length reaches fasteners in recessed bosses, behind flanges, and in confined engine bays
  • Impact-Grade Construction: Phosphate-coated heavy-duty steel withstands repeated pneumatic and manual hammer strikes without fracturing
  • 3/4" Square Drive: Compatible with all standard 3/4" drive impact wrenches, breaker bars, and ratchet extensions
  • Retaining Groove: Integral detent pin slot prevents accidental socket ejection during high-speed impact work
  • Matte Black Finish: Dark phosphate or oxide coating provides corrosion resistance and professional appearance

Why This Socket Matters for Your Resale Business

Rapid Turnover in High-Volume Shops: Mechanics working on heavy diesel engines, agricultural equipment, and commercial vehicles need deep sockets regularly. The 23mm size is a daily-use fastener in modern engine assembly and suspension systems, making it a repeat-order item.

Durability = Customer Retention: Impact sockets that fail mid-job damage customer relationships. This tool's 6-point design and impact-grade steel minimize breakage, meaning fewer warranty claims and more satisfied return customers who buy from you again.

Perfect Complement to Existing Inventory: Stock this alongside 30mm and 32mm deep sockets to offer mechanics a complete deep socket set for metric engine work—increasing average transaction value.

Application Reality

This socket targets real-world scenarios: removing and installing 23mm lug nuts on heavy trucks, accessing deep engine fasteners on modern inline-6 and V8 assemblies, and working on agricultural or construction equipment where deep reach is non-negotiable. Not suited for light precision work—this is a specialist tool for impact-rated applications only.

Bottom Line for Distributors

Stock depth: This is a high-velocity item. The 23mm size bridges a critical gap in the metric fastener world, appearing on OEM assemblies from multiple manufacturers. Pair it with complementary sizes to create margin-friendly socket kits that move fast and build customer loyalty.
