Impact socket for non-sparking environments
This 1/2-inch drive impact socket measures 1 5/16 inches across the hex and has an overall length of 3 3/16 inches. It is made from nickel aluminum bronze rather than steel, giving it non-sparking and non-magnetic properties. The tool follows SAE sizing and suits maintenance crews who must avoid ignition sources in hazardous areas.
Nickel aluminum bronze construction resists
The bronze alloy withstands moisture and chemical exposure without rusting, so the socket remains serviceable in marine, chemical or offshore settings. A natural finish avoids plating that could chip and contaminate sensitive workpieces. Deep-well geometry provides reach for recessed fasteners while the 1/2-inch square drive fits standard impact wrenches and extensions.
Verify drive size and hex dimension before ordering
Ensure your impact wrench or breaker bar uses a 1/2-inch square drive and that the fastener you intend to turn is exactly 1 5/16 inches across the flats. The socket is not suited for metric fasteners or smaller SAE sizes, and its non-steel material means it cannot be used where maximum steel hardness is specified.
