Spline Impact Socket – 1/2" Drive, M18
Overview
This 1/2-inch drive spline impact socket is purpose-built for high-torque pneumatic impact applications where traditional hex sockets may slip or cam-out. The 12-point spline profile distributes load across a greater contact surface, reducing fastener damage and improving engagement on both spline-drive fasteners and rounded hardware. Pair this with complementary long-reach impact sockets or upgrade to a tamper-resistant variant for specialized shop requirements.
Key Features
- 12-Point Spline Design: Multi-tooth profile prevents cam-out and provides superior grip on compromised or spline-drive fasteners
- CR-MO Steel Construction: Chromium-molybdenum alloy delivers maximum impact resistance and durability under pneumatic tool stress
- Impact-Grade Reinforcement: Thick-walled, matte-black finished body absorbs shock loads without cracking or deforming
- M18 Size Specification: Optimized for M18 fastening applications, matching common industrial bolt patterns
- Detent Pin Hole: Built-in retention mechanism prevents accidental socket separation during operation
- Long-Shaft Design: Extended reach enables access to recessed or deeply-seated fasteners
Business Advantages for Resellers
- High Demand Category: Spline impact sockets are essential inventory for shops handling industrial assembly, equipment maintenance, and automotive specialty work
- Durability Profile: CR-MO construction means fewer callbacks and warranty claims—your customers' tools stay on the job longer
- Margin-Friendly: Impact sockets command consistent markup due to their specialized function and regular replacement cycles in heavy-use environments
- Bulk Order Ready: Stock this alongside standard impact socket sets to meet one-call purchasing from your distributor base
