Professional Deep Impact Socket
The STEELMAN PRO 79271 is a 3/4-inch drive 6-point deep impact socket sized at 1-7/16-inch for heavy-duty fastening tasks. It is built for mechanics maintaining large trucks, tractors, construction equipment and mass transit vehicles. The drop forged chromoly steel construction handles high torque from air wrenches and impact drivers. This tool suits professional garages and industrial maintenance crews needing durable, high-reach sockets.
Simple Drive-End Attachment
The socket slides onto any 3/4-inch drive ratchet, air wrench, adapter or extension and locks via a ball detent recess that resists vibration. No special tools or adapters are required beyond the standard drive size. The black phosphate coating reduces corrosion but can hide wear if not inspected regularly. The most common issue is using the wrong drive size or applying torque beyond the fastener rating, which rounds the 6-point profile.
6-Point Deep Well Gripping
The 6-point geometry contacts fastener flats instead of corners, reducing rounding risk on stubborn or corroded bolts. The deep well design reaches nuts on long studs and recessed bolts where shallow sockets cannot engage. This specification decides fitment: the socket only works with 1-7/16-inch fasteners and 3/4-inch drive tools. Buyers needing other sizes or smaller drive formats must select different sockets.

Questions about this item
How do I confirm the socket stays locked on my 3/4-inch drive ratchet after installation?
The ball detent recess on the drive end engages with the ratchet's retention ball; you should feel a positive click and the socket should not pull off without depressing the release.
Does the package include any extensions or adapters, or only the socket itself?
The listing describes a single 3/4-inch drive deep impact socket; extensions, adapters and ratchets are sold separately.
Should I choose the 79271 model or a different size for 1-7/16-inch fasteners?
Model 79271 is the 1-7/16-inch size; select a different model number when you need a different hex opening.
