Impact Socket Set, 8-Piece 3/4-Inch Drive, 26-38mm Deep Hex, Chromium-Molybdenum Steel

Brief Overview

This 8-piece impact socket set represents the foundational tool requirement for any shop running 3/4-inch drive impact wrenches. Manufactured from chromium-molybdenum steel—not the standard chrome-vanadium used in standard sockets—these are engineered specifically to absorb and withstand the shock loads of pneumatic impact tools without fracturing or deforming. Unlike chrome-vanadium sockets that will cam-out and fail under impact stress, these Cr-Mo units maintain their hex geometry and drive engagement through years of heavy use. The set includes a safety pin and retaining ring system to keep the socket firmly seated on the wrench drive during operation, reducing the risk of unexpected separation on the job. If you're stocking larger drive impact sockets or comprehensive impact socket assortments for your customer base, this mid-range set fills a critical gap in your 3/4-inch offering.

Key Features

• Chromium-Molybdenum Construction: Material specifically selected for impact tool compatibility; superior to standard chrome-vanadium for pneumatic use
• Deep/Long Socket Design: Extended depth for access on recessed fasteners and studs
• Six-Point Hex Profile: Reduces the risk of rounding on bolt heads compared to 12-point designs
• Safety Pin & Retaining Ring System: Keeps socket seated during impact operation; pins and rings available separately for replacement
• Solid Metal Storage Box: Heavy-duty blue metal case with two latches protects tools and presents professionally to end customers
• Clear Metric Markings: Size identification printed on each socket for quick selection (26, 27, 29, 30, 32, 35, 36, 38mm)

Business Advantages for Resellers

• High Margin Potential: Impact-rated tools command premium pricing vs. standard socket sets; customers understand the necessity and are willing to pay for durability
• Professional Presentation: Comes packaged in a branded metal toolbox—ready to sell as a complete unit or display in your showroom
• Replacement Part Sales: Safety pins and retaining rings are sold separately; create recurring revenue when customers lose or damage these components
• Essential Upsell: Every shop with pneumatic impact wrenches needs multiple impact socket sets; position this as the backbone of 3/4-inch drive inventory
• B2B Confidence: Cr-Mo material is the industry standard for impact tools; mechanics trust this specification and will request it by name

Why Cr-Mo Matters

The distinction between impact-rated and standard sockets is critical for your customer retention. Chromium-molybdenum steel offers better shock absorption and lower brittleness than chrome-vanadium. When an impact wrench delivers rapid rotational force, a standard socket can develop micro-fractures or permanently deform the hex opening (cam-out). A Cr-Mo socket absorbs these loads and returns to its original geometry, maintaining precision engagement for years. This is not a marketing claim—it is metallurgical fact that separates professional-grade from consumer-grade tools.
