VEGA 317163 Impact Socket 1-1/16
The VEGA 317163 is a 1/2 inch square drive impact socket with a 1-1/16 inch opening and long length. It is designed for professional mechanics and serious DIY users who need extended reach on stubborn fasteners. The tool is supplied new and ships directly from the manufacturer.
Installation and common issues
The socket fits standard 1/2 inch drive impact wrenches or breaker bars without adapters. Ensure the retaining pin or ring engages fully to prevent the socket from separating under torque. A common mistake is using a short socket where the long length is required to clear obstructions, or exceeding the tool's rated torque capacity.
Compatibility checks before ordering
Verify that your impact wrench or breaker bar uses a 1/2 inch square drive. Confirm the fastener size is exactly 1-1/16 inch and that the surrounding clearance accommodates the socket's long profile. Check that your tool's maximum torque output does not exceed the socket's design limits.

Questions about this item
How do I verify the 317163 impact socket is engaging correctly after setup?
The socket should seat fully on the fastener with no visible gap, and the 1/2 inch square drive must lock securely into the ratchet or impact gun without wobble during use.
What comes with the 317163 impact socket and what must I supply?
The package contains the long-length impact socket only; you must provide a compatible 1/2 inch drive ratchet, breaker bar, or impact wrench to operate it.
Which version of the 317163 socket should I select for my application?
The 317163 is a single long-length impact socket with a 1-1/16 inch opening and 1/2 inch square drive; choose it when that exact size and drive combination matches your fastener.
