1" Drive 6-Point Deep Impact Socket
The STEELMAN 79335 is a 1-inch drive, 6-point deep impact socket built for heavy-duty fastening. It is made from drop-forged, heat-treated chromoly steel with a black phosphate coating for corrosion resistance. A ball detent recess secures the socket to ratchets, air wrenches, adapters, and extensions during high-torque applications. Laser-etched size callouts provide clear identification in the workshop.
Mechanics servicing large trucks, tractors.
This socket suits professionals maintaining heavy-duty vehicles, farming machinery, oilfield gear, and mass transit fleets where 1-inch drive tools are standard. The deep well reaches nuts on extended threads and recessed bolts, while the 6-point profile grips fastener flats to reduce rounding. Shops without 1-inch drive ratchets or impact wrenches cannot use this socket directly and would need a different drive size.
1-1/2 inch hex opening with deep well access
The 6-point, 1-1/2 inch hex opening handles large fasteners found on commercial wheel ends, suspension components, and structural bolts. The deep well design provides the reach needed for nuts on long studs or bolts seated in counterbores. Chromoly construction withstands repeated impact cycles, though the single fixed size means a full range of bolt diameters requires additional sockets.

Questions about this item
What drive size impact wrench or ratchet do I need for the 1" drive on this socket?
You need a 1-inch drive ratchet, air wrench, adapter or extension; the ball detent recess on the drive end locks the socket onto any standard 1-inch square drive.
Will the 6-point opening grip the flats of my existing 1-1/2" heavy-duty fasteners without rounding them?
Yes, the 6-point geometry contacts the fastener flats instead of the corners, reducing wear and the chance of rounding off stubborn nuts on trucks, tractors or construction equipment.
How can I confirm the socket is the right size once it is on the fastener?
The size is laser etched on the black phosphate coating, so you can read the marking while the socket is engaged on the bolt or nut.
