Description

3/4-Inch Drive 6-Point Short Impact Socket, 60mm, CR-MO Construction

Brief Overview

This 60mm 6-point short impact socket is engineered for professional mechanics and technicians working with 3/4-inch drive pneumatic impact tools. The compact 75mm length and reinforced chrome-molybdenum construction deliver reliable performance in confined work areas where standard-length sockets cannot fit. Built to withstand the shock loads of impact machinery, this socket is a practical addition to any full-service shop's tool inventory. If you're stocking multiple socket sizes, consider pairing this with complementary 6-point impact sockets or specialized Torx impact solutions to round out your impact tool lineup.

Key Features

  • 6-Point Internal Hex Geometry – Reduces fastener cam-out and rounding, extending tool and fastener life
  • Short Cylinder Design (75mm Length) – Accesses fasteners in tight engine bays, suspension assemblies, and confined mechanical spaces
  • Chrome-Molybdenum Steel Construction – Absorbs impact shock without cracking; rated for high-torque pneumatic impact wrench applications
  • Black Oxide Protective Finish – Resists corrosion and provides visual durability under shop floor conditions
  • Precision-Machined 3/4" Square Drive – Direct compatibility with 3/4-inch impact tools; clean engagement with no slippage
  • Chamfered Entry Face – Guides fastener engagement and prevents edge damage

Business Advantages for Resellers

  • High Inventory Turnover: Impact sockets are consumed steadily in professional shops; mechanics buy them repeatedly as they wear or are lost
  • Margin Opportunity: Industrial-grade impact sockets command solid margins on bulk orders
  • Essential Upgrade Sell: Mechanics upgrading from standard to impact-rated tools represent a natural upsell from basic socket sets
  • Professional Credibility: Stocking genuine CR-MO impact-rated products establishes your shop as a serious tool supplier, not a discount retailer
  • Fleet & Commercial Appeal: Body shops, transmission specialists, and industrial maintenance teams buy in volume

Why Choose This Socket

The 60mm size bridges the gap between mid-range fasteners (50mm) and large industrial bolts, making it ideal for transmission work, heavy engine assembly, and machinery maintenance. The short length is a critical advantage—standard-length sockets often cannot physically reach fasteners in engine block recesses or suspension components. The 6-point geometry prevents the frustration of rounded fastener heads, which is the leading cause of comebacks in professional shops.

Applications

  • Transmission Overhaul – Engine-to-transmission bell housing bolts
  • Suspension Assembly – Control arm and strut fasteners in tight clearances
  • Heavy Equipment Maintenance – Industrial machinery and agricultural equipment bolts
  • Industrial Fastening – Factory assembly lines and production environments

Stock this socket in bulk for maximum turnover. Professional shops that use impact tools regularly will require multiple copies as tools are damaged, lost, or assigned permanently to specific workstations. This is not a one-time purchase—it's an ongoing supply opportunity.
