SATA GL34316 1/2" Drive 6 Point Impact Socket 23mm

A 6-point socket grips the nut faces more securely during high-torque applications, improving grip and torque transfer while reducing the risk of rounding compared to some other socket designs.

Yes. It is intended for use with standard 1/2\" drive tools, including impact wrenches and drivers, providing broad compatibility with common workshop equipment.

Off-corner loading means the contact is on the flat surfaces rather than the sharp corners. This distributes torque more evenly, reduces the likelihood of rounding fasteners, and extends socket life under heavy use.

Key specs: 1/2\" drive, 23mm hex size, 6-point design, impact-rated durability, and high-strength steel. It also features large markings for easy size identification.

Attach the 23mm, 1/2\" drive socket to an appropriate impact tool, ensure it fully engages the fastener, and apply controlled, short bursts of torque. Avoid using damaged sockets or applying excessive lateral force.

Common uses include automotive work (lug nuts and fasteners around the 23mm range), machinery maintenance, and construction tasks where heavy-duty, high-torque fastening is required with an impact tool.

Inspect for cracks or wear before use, clean after job to remove debris, keep it dry and free from moisture, store away from heavy impacts when not in use, and avoid using with damaged or misfit fasteners.

The 23mm (GL34316) and 22mm (GL34315) are both 1/2\" drive, 6-point, impact-rated sockets with off-corner loading. The main difference is size: 23mm vs 22mm. Choose 22mm when your fasteners are 22mm, or 23mm for 23mm fasteners. See variant: https://fepy.com/product/sata-gl34315-12-drive-6-point-impact-socket-22mm

The 23mm (GL34316) and 24mm (GL34317) share the same design and durability, but suit different fastener sizes. Use 23mm for 23mm fasteners and 24mm for 24mm fasteners. See variant: https://fepy.com/product/sata-gl34317-12-drive-6-point-impact-socket-24mm

Yes. It is designed for impact-grade durability and professional use, with features like off-corner loading and clearly marked sizes to withstand demanding tasks and frequent use in harsh environments.

Always wear eye protection, ensure the tool is powered off before changing sockets, use the correct 1/2\" drive and size, inspect the socket for cracks or damage before use, and avoid using damaged or misfit fasteners that could cause slippage or breakage.
