Description

Impact Socket 12-Point 17mm 1/2-Inch Drive, CR-MO Steel

Brief Overview

This 17mm impact socket is engineered for demanding pneumatic impact wrench applications. Built from chromium-molybdenum (CR-MO) steel with a phosphate finish, it delivers the durability and impact resistance required in high-torque fastening environments. The 12-point double-hex profile reduces rounding and cam-out on fasteners, while the 1/2-inch square drive ensures secure connection to standard impact wrenches. Part of a comprehensive range of impact sockets in complementary sizes, this socket is ideal for professional shops looking to stock essential metric fastening tools.

Key Features

  • 12-Point Double-Hex Design: Minimizes fastener rounding and improves grip on worn or damaged bolt heads
  • CR-MO Steel Construction: Superior impact resistance compared to standard carbon steel; withstands repeated pneumatic hammer blows
  • Phosphate Finish: Corrosion-resistant coating extends socket lifespan in workshop and field environments
  • 1/2-Inch Square Drive: Compatible with all standard 1/2-inch pneumatic and manual impact wrenches
  • Deep Profile: 78mm length accommodates fasteners on recessed or hard-to-reach locations
  • Precision Engineering: Exact dimensional tolerances ensure consistent fit and performance across your tool inventory
