SKU CH-C1QK-2VVX1

Urethane-covered 3/8 in drive shallow impact socket protects fasteners and meets ANSI and DIN standards

  • U-Guard urethane cover protects fastener finishes
  • Shallow profile reaches tight clearances
  • Impact rated for powered tool use
  • Exceeds ANSI and DIN standards

Socket Size and Drive

The Apex UG-M-8MM13 is a 13 mm shallow impact socket with a 3/8 inch square drive. It is built for mechanics and technicians who need a durable socket for high-torque fastening tasks on impact wrenches.

Compatibility Check

Verify that your impact wrench or ratchet accepts a 3/8 inch square drive before ordering. The socket is designed to exceed ANSI and DIN standards for impact-rated use on compatible tools.

Upgrade Considerations

This urethane-covered socket replaces standard steel sockets where surface protection and impact durability are required. The upgrade is worth it when working on finished fasteners or when a non-marring cover prevents damage to surrounding components.

Questions about this item

Does the Apex UG-M-8MM13 socket arrive ready to use or must a 3/8 in drive ratchet be purchased separately?

The socket is sold individually; a compatible 3/8 in drive ratchet or impact gun is required and is not included.

Is the 13 mm shallow U-Guard socket the only size offered for this 3/8 in drive series?

The product data lists only the 13 mm shallow version; other sizes would be separate part numbers.

What does the ANSI and DIN impact rating mean when the socket is on a 3/8 in impact gun?

It certifies the tool-steel body and urethane cover meet recognised impact standards for powered fastening.
