Ampco 1/2 in Drive Impact Socket
The Ampco I-1/2D7/8 is a 1/2 inch drive impact socket with a 7/8 inch hex opening. It is forged from nickel aluminum bronze and meets ASTM A342 and FM approval standards. The six-point design engages fastener flats to reduce rounding. This non-sparking tool is built for professional use in hazardous environments.
Suited for non-sparking industrial maintenance
Mechanics and maintenance crews in oil, gas, chemical or mining operations will value the non-sparking alloy. The impact rating handles high-torque power tools on heavy fasteners. Buyers who need more socket sizes or different drive configurations must look elsewhere. This listing covers a single 7/8 inch socket only.
Nickel aluminum bronze construction
The copper-based alloy prevents ignition sparks in flammable atmospheres where steel tools are unsafe. It carries FM approval for use in classified locations. The material also resists corrosion and wear in harsh conditions. This specification is the deciding factor for safety-critical applications.
