1/2 in Drive Impact Socket

This deep impact socket fits a 1/2 inch drive and engages a 3/8 inch hex fastener. The six-point opening distributes torque across the flats to reduce rounding. It is built for use with impact tools in automotive and industrial maintenance.

Nickel Aluminum Bronze Construction

The socket is made from nickel aluminum bronze that meets ASTM A342 and carries FM approval. This non-ferrous alloy resists sparking and corrosion, so the tool retains its dimensions and strength through repeated high-torque cycles without degrading.

Deep Profile for Recessed Fasteners

The deep body reaches nuts and bolts set below the surface, while the unfinished surface provides a secure grip. The 1/2 inch drive square ensures compatibility with standard impact wrenches and extensions for everyday shop use.

Questions about this item

Does the deep nickel-aluminium-bronze construction of the 3/8 in hex socket stay cool during continuous impact use?

The ASTM A342 rated nickel-aluminium-bronze material resists heat build-up during prolonged impact operation, keeping the 1/2 in drive socket cool enough for all-day use.

What drive tool must I already own to use this 1/2 in drive impact socket?

You need a 1/2 in square-drive impact wrench or breaker bar to engage the 1/2 in drive on this 3/8 in hex deep socket.

Will this FM-approved 3/8 in hex socket fit the same 1/2 in drive tools I already use with older SAE sockets?

Yes, the 1/2 in drive size matches standard SAE impact tools, so it works with your existing 1/2 in drive wrenches and extensions.
