SATA GL34214 3/8" Drive 6 Point Impact Socket 19mm

A 6‑point socket grips the flats of a nut or bolt flatly, providing a larger contact area than a 12‑point design. This reduces rounding and slippage under high torque, improving grip and extending the life of both the fastener and the socket.

The socket is built from chrome molybdenum (Cr‑Mo) steel for strength and durability, and it features a black oxide finish that provides corrosion resistance and helps with longevity in tough work environments.

Key specs: 3/8" drive, 19mm size, 6‑point design, off‑corner loading for reduced fastener rounding, chrome molybdenum steel construction, black oxide finish, and clearly marked size for quick identification.

Off‑corner loading shifts contact away from the sharp edges of the fastener, distributing torque more evenly. This minimizes rounding and damage to fasteners and reduces wear on the socket during high‑torque operations.

Yes. It’s specifically engineered for impact use, offering high torque tolerance and resistance to cracking or breaking when used with impact tools.

It's well suited for automotive repairs (lug nuts and fasteners around engines and suspension), machinery maintenance, and workshop tasks where high torque is needed and fastener integrity matters.

This socket features large, visible size markings to help you identify 19mm at a glance, saving time when you’re sorting wrenches and sockets on the job.

Keep it clean and dry after use, avoid exposing it to corrosive environments for extended periods, and store it in a dry organizer. Periodically inspect for any visible cracks or wear and avoid using damaged sockets with high‑torque applications.

The GL342 series includes other 3/8" drive 6‑point sockets in different sizes. For example, you can compare with a 17mm model here: https://fepy.com/product/sata-gl34212-3-8-drive-6-point-impact-socket-17mm and a 21mm model here: https://fepy.com/product/sata-gl34215-3-8-drive-6-point-impact-socket-21mm to choose the right size for your fasteners.

The Cr‑Mo construction combined with an impact‑rated design provides superior toughness under high torque and repeated impact, outperforming standard chrome sockets that are not built for impact service. This leads to longer life in demanding tasks and less risk of cracking or warping.

SATA sockets are designed to balance strength, precision fit, and durability for professional use. The GL34214 offers a robust Cr‑Mo alloy, an impact‑specific design, clear size markings, and off‑corner loading to protect fasteners, making it a reliable choice for high‑demand tasks.
