3/4-Inch Drive 12-Point Thin-Walled Impact Socket, 36mm
Brief Overview
This 36mm deep impact socket is purpose-built for heavy-duty fastening work with 3/4-inch drive pneumatic impact wrenches. The thin-walled construction reduces overall socket mass while maintaining the structural integrity required for high-torque shock loads. The 12-point geometry distributes force across twelve engagement points, reducing the risk of corner rounding on larger hexagonal fasteners common in industrial assembly, automotive transmission work, and equipment maintenance. If your shop runs mixed-drive operations, consider stocking complementary 6-point sockets for applications where maximum grip strength is non-negotiable.
Key Features
- 12-Point Internal Geometry: Twelve contact points provide faster engagement than 6-point sockets and reduce fastener damage on softer materials or worn fasteners.
- Deep Thin-Walled Design: Extended reach into recessed fastener locations; reduced weight for easier handling during overhead or confined-space work.
- Chrome-Molybdenum Construction: Impact-rated material with matte black finish resists corrosion and absorbs shock loads without cracking.
- 3/4-Inch Square Drive: Direct compatibility with 3/4" pneumatic impact wrenches, breaker bars, and extension bars.
- Retaining Ring Groove: Equipped with locking groove and detent pin hole to prevent accidental socket ejection during high-speed operation.
- Chamfered Socket Mouth: Slightly beveled leading edge eases fastener engagement and extends socket life.
Business Advantages for Resellers
- High-Margin Consumable Category: Impact sockets are regularly replaced due to wear, fatigue, and loss—ensuring repeat orders from shops and fleets.
- Essential Inventory Depth: 36mm is a common size in heavy truck, heavy equipment, and industrial machinery fastening; stocking this size addresses recurring demand.
- Cross-Sell Opportunity: Pair with deep-reach impact socket sets to increase average transaction value and establish your shop as a one-stop supplier.
- Professional Positioning: Offering impact-rated sockets signals that your inventory meets the durability demands of professional technicians, building trust and loyalty.

Why This Socket Matters to Your Customers
A 36mm fastener appears frequently in heavy truck suspension, industrial gearbox assembly, and equipment maintenance. The 12-point design accelerates bit engagement and reduces the hammering effect that strips corners on larger fasteners. The thin-walled construction keeps operator fatigue down during extended use while maintaining full impact rating for 3/4" pneumatic tools rated up to typical industrial torque output (500+ ft-lbs).
Stock this socket to meet recurring demand from shops that rely on pneumatic impact tools. It's a high-velocity, low-margin-per-unit item that drives customer loyalty through reliability and availability.
