Impact Socket 12-Point 15mm 1/2-Inch Drive, Chrome-Molybdenum Construction

Brief Overview

This 15mm impact socket is engineered for professional mechanics and technicians who demand durability under demanding pneumatic impact conditions. Constructed from chrome-molybdenum steel with a deep-well design, it delivers consistent performance across automotive, heavy equipment, and industrial assembly applications. The 12-point internal geometry provides reliable engagement with hex fasteners while minimizing the risk of rounding. This socket integrates seamlessly into any 1/2-inch drive impact tool system and works effectively alongside 12-point impact sockets in smaller sizes and larger diameter variants to complete a comprehensive fastener toolkit.

Key Features

• 12-Point Internal Profile: Reduces fastener damage and provides positive engagement across a broad range of bolt configurations
• Chrome-Molybdenum Steel Construction: Superior impact resistance and durability compared to standard chrome steel
• Deep-Well Design: Extended reach for fasteners on recessed or hard-to-access applications
• 1/2-Inch Square Drive: Compatible with all standard 1/2-inch pneumatic impact wrenches and ratchets
• Detent Hole: Ball-lock or pin retention system prevents accidental socket separation during high-speed operation
• Black Oxide Finish: Corrosion-resistant surface treatment suitable for shop and field environments

Why This Socket Drives Reseller Value

Turnover & Margin: Impact sockets experience consistent demand across automotive service centers, heavy equipment shops, and industrial maintenance operations. The 15mm size sits in a high-frequency fastener range, ensuring steady inventory movement and healthy profit margins on bulk orders.

Complete Toolkit Building: Stock this alongside complementary sizes—12mm, 18mm, 21mm, and 30mm variants—to position your shop as a one-stop source for impact socket solutions.

Durability = Customer Loyalty: Chrome-molybdenum construction means longer tool lifespan, fewer warranty returns, and higher customer satisfaction. Mechanics will return to your inventory when they know the sockets won't fail mid-job.

Professional Credibility: Offering industrial-grade impact sockets establishes your business as a serious professional supplier, not a discount commodity distributor.
