Impact Socket 12-Point 13mm 1/2-Inch Drive, Chrome-Moly Construction

Brief Overview

This 13mm impact socket is purpose-built for professional mechanics and technicians who demand reliability under extreme rotational stress. Constructed from chrome-molybdenum steel, it withstands the shock loads generated by pneumatic impact wrenches without fracturing or deforming. The 12-point (double-hex) internal profile provides multiple engagement angles, reducing the risk of rounding fastener heads—a critical advantage when working with stubborn or seized bolts. Whether you're servicing automotive engines, heavy equipment, or industrial machinery, this socket delivers consistent performance across thousands of impact cycles. For shops requiring a complete 1/2-inch impact socket kit, consider pairing this with smaller 10mm and 12mm sockets and larger 23mm and 30mm options to cover the full fastening spectrum.

Key Features

• 12-Point Drive Profile: Multiple contact points reduce fastener cam-out and head rounding, especially critical for damaged or tight fasteners
• Chrome-Molybdenum Construction: Superior impact resistance compared to standard steel; maintains structural integrity under repeated shock loads
• 1/2-Inch Square Drive: Universal compatibility with standard 1/2" pneumatic impact wrenches and manual breaker bars
• Compact 38mm Length: Short profile for access in tight engine bays and confined spaces
• Retaining Pin Hole: Integrated pin recess ensures socket remains secured to the wrench drive during high-speed operation
• Matte Black Finish: Corrosion-resistant finish that resists rust and moisture buildup in humid workshop environments
• Clearly Stamped Markings: Permanent size and material identification for quick tool identification and inventory management

Business Advantages for Resellers

• High Demand Professional Tool: 13mm is one of the most-used metric sizes in automotive service; consistent turn-over in shop environments
• Bulk Order Scalability: Part number 525613P allows for easy reordering and integration into tool kits and socket sets
• Durability Justifies Pricing: Chrome-moly construction commands premium pricing while reducing warranty claims and customer dissatisfaction
• Cross-Sell Opportunity: Pairs naturally with larger and smaller impact sockets—customers buying one size typically purchase multiple sizes to complete their kit
• Professional Grade Appeal: Meets the expectations of independent shops, dealerships, and industrial maintenance crews who specify quality tools
