Description

Impact Socket 12-Point 24mm 1/2-Inch Drive, Chrome-Moly Construction

Overview

This 24mm deep impact socket is engineered for demanding automotive, industrial, and heavy equipment maintenance applications. Built from chrome-molybdenum steel with a phosphate or black-oxide finish, it delivers reliable performance under high-torque impact conditions. The 12-point design provides dual-angle engagement for versatility, while the 1/2-inch square drive (D2: 30mm) ensures compatibility with standard impact wrenches and pneumatic tools. Whether you're servicing automotive fasteners or industrial machinery, this socket bridges the gap between mid-range and larger bolt applications—complementing smaller 12-point sockets and 30mm alternatives for complete shop coverage.

Key Features

  • 12-Point Socket Design: Dual-angle engagement reduces the risk of rounding hex fasteners and improves contact on damaged or worn bolts
  • Chrome-Moly Construction: Specifically formulated for impact applications; withstands repeated shock loads without chipping or cracking
  • Deep Profile: 78mm length accommodates recessed fasteners and studs in tight engine bays and industrial compartments
  • Detent Pin Groove: Cross-drilled hole and circumferential groove secure the socket to the drive with a retaining ring or pin—prevents accidental disconnection under high torque
  • Black-Oxide Finish: Corrosion-resistant coating protects against rust and extends tool life in damp workshop environments
  • 1/2-Inch Square Drive: Standard compatibility with pneumatic impact wrenches, electric impact drivers, and hand-torque breaker bars

Business Advantages for Resellers

  • High-Demand Core Size: 24mm fasteners are ubiquitous in automotive and industrial sectors; strong turnover potential
  • Bulk-Order Margin: Chrome-moly impact sockets command stable wholesale pricing with consistent markup potential
  • Durability = Repeat Orders: Chrome-moly construction reduces breakage compared to cheaper hardened-steel alternatives; customers return for reliability, not replacement
  • Complementary Bundle Opportunity: Pair with neighboring sizes (21mm, 22mm, 30mm, 32mm) to build complete socket sets and increase average transaction value
  • Professional Credibility: Stocking industrial-grade impact tools positions your business as a serious supplier to professional mechanics and shops

Why This Socket Matters

The 24mm size sits in the critical "sweet spot" of fastener applications—large enough for heavy industrial work, yet common enough to justify stock for any professional shop. Chrome-moly impact sockets are not commodities; they are engineered consumables that justify premium pricing when positioned correctly. The 12-point design and deep 78mm profile make this socket indispensable for engine work, suspension service, and machinery maintenance where bolt access is restricted.

Stock this size with confidence. It will drive consistent demand and establish your business as a trusted source for premium impact tools.
