SATA GL34210 3/8" Drive 6 Point Impact Socket 15mm

Drive size: 3/8"; Socket size: 15mm; Internal design: 6-point (double hex) to grip fasteners; Material: Chrome molybdenum steel (Cr-Mo); Finish: Black phosphate coating for corrosion resistance; Intended use: Impact wrench applications; Markings: Large size markings for quick identification.

The socket is made from chrome molybdenum steel (Cr-Mo), which provides high strength, durability, and resistance to deformation under heavy impact. This makes it suitable for repeated use in demanding, high-torque tasks.

A 6-point design grips the flats of hex fasteners more securely than a 12-point or thin-wlex design, reducing rounding and wear during high-torque applications and helping you apply torque more efficiently.

Off-corner loading reduces rounding and wear on fasteners by distributing contact away from a single edge. This helps extend both the fastener and socket life, especially under impact loading.

Ideal for automotive repair, machinery maintenance, and general mechanical work where 15mm fasteners are used and high torque is required with an impact wrench.

Ensure the socket fully seats onto the fastener, use the correct 3/8" drive impact wrench, apply torque steadily, avoid hammering the socket, and inspect for cracks or wear after heavy use. Store in a dry place to maintain the finish.

The socket features large markings indicating the size (15mm) for easy, on-the-spot identification during a job, minimizing mis-selection and saving time.

6-point sockets generally provide a larger contact area with hex-fasteners, offering better torque transfer and reducing rounding under high torque. 12-point sockets can engage faster but may slip more under heavy impact; for high-torque tasks, a 6-point design like this one is typically preferred.

Keep it clean and dry after use, wipe away any dirt or debris from the drive and hex area, and avoid exposing it to harsh chemicals. The black phosphate finish offers corrosion resistance, but prolonged exposure to moisture should be minimized.
