Description

Impact Socket 1" Drive High-Profile 32mm

Brief Overview

This is a purpose-built impact socket engineered for pneumatic impact wrenches in the 32mm fastener category. The high-profile (deep) design provides extended fastener engagement, critical for heavy-duty industrial work where fastener accessibility or alignment tolerances demand additional grip length. The 6-point internal geometry delivers focused load distribution, reducing fastener rounding and cam-out failures—especially valuable when working with damaged or corroded bolt heads. This socket is an essential addition to any professional shop's impact tool kit, and it pairs well with larger hex sockets for complete fastener coverage across multiple size ranges.

Key Features

  • 1" Square Drive: Direct compatibility with standard pneumatic impact wrenches and torque limiters
  • High-Profile Design: Extended socket depth (90mm) for accessible fasteners in recessed or confined mounting locations
  • 6-Point Internal Geometry: Provides superior load distribution and resists fastener rounding compared to 12-point alternatives
  • Impact-Grade Construction: Heavy wall thickness and matte black finish indicate specialized hardening for pneumatic duty—not suitable for hand tools
  • Retaining Ring Groove: Built-in retention feature for secure socket mounting on drive extensions
  • Chamfered Entry: Reduces fastener misalignment and eases socket engagement

Business Advantages for Resellers

  • High-Turn Inventory: The 32mm socket fills a critical gap in standard metric fastener ranges. Mechanics working on European vehicles, industrial equipment, and OEM assembly routinely need this exact size
  • Durability = Repeat Sales: Impact-grade sockets withstand pneumatic abuse that hand sockets cannot. Professional shops replace worn sockets regularly, creating predictable reorder demand
  • Margin Opportunity: Sold as part of a complete socket set or as individual replacements. Bulk orders for fleet maintenance programs are common
  • Complementary Sales: Stock alongside other high-profile impact sockets (30mm, 33mm, 34mm variants) to capture complete tool kits and multi-socket orders
