1/2-Inch Drive 6-Point Long Impact Socket, 10-36mm Range

Brief Overview

This is a professional-grade 1/2-inch drive long impact socket series designed for high-torque pneumatic and electric impact tools. The collection spans sizes from 10mm to 36mm, making it essential for automotive repair, heavy equipment maintenance, and industrial fastener removal. Each socket features a hardened black-oxide finish and six-point design for secure engagement without rounding. If you need broader coverage, consider pairing these with complementary impact socket sets to maximize your shop's fastener removal capability.

Key Features

• 6-Point Design: Precise hex contact minimizes fastener rounding and cam-out during removal
• Long Profile: Extended reach allows access to fasteners in recessed or tight spaces
• Black-Oxide Finish: Impact-hardened coating resists corrosion and provides professional durability
• Chamfered Entry: Slightly beveled socket opening ensures smooth fastener engagement
• Retaining Ring Slot: Lateral groove accommodates standard 1/2-inch drive locking pins for secure tool control
• Full Size Range: 10mm through 36mm sizes cover standard metric fastener applications

Why Distributors Choose This Series

Turnover & Margin: Impact sockets move faster than standard sockets. The 10-36mm range means your technician customers won't need multiple specialty brands—they buy the full set from you, increasing order size and repeat purchases.

Shop Efficiency: Long sockets reduce the need for extensions and wobble sockets, cutting downtime and accessory costs for your customers. This translates to customer loyalty and higher order frequency.

Bulk Order Economics: With 17 individual sizes available, this series works as both a complete set offering and a modular restocking system. Customers often purchase complete ranges, then reorder high-wear sizes (16mm, 19mm, 24mm) individually.

Professional Grade: The black-oxide finish and precision 6-point design eliminate cheap appearance. Your customers see professional-quality tools, justifying your pricing and reducing price-shopping behavior.

Real-World Application

The long profile (78mm) is ideal for wheel lug nuts, suspension fasteners, and engine work where standard-depth sockets don't reach. The 6-point geometry prevents the frustrating fastener rounding that costs shops time and reputation. Wall thickness scales appropriately with size—smaller sockets (10-14mm) use thinner walls for flexibility with lighter fastener torques, while larger sockets (28-36mm) employ reinforced construction to handle the full impact torque load.

Build Quality & Durability

Black-oxide finish is proven in professional shops. Unlike chrome plating (which chips and peels under impact stress), black-oxide provides consistent impact absorption without cosmetic degradation. The retaining ring groove is precision-drilled to accept standard locking pins, preventing accidental socket ejection during high-speed work.

For Your Resale Strategy

Order the full 10-36mm range as a master set, then segment for your customer base: smaller shops get essential sizes (10-24mm), larger operations buy the complete range. This flexibility drives volume without forcing customers into oversized orders. The consistent 78mm length across the series also means you can market them as a unified product family, simplifying your technical support and warranty claims.
