Question 1

What is the SATA GL34320T 1/2" Drive 6 Point Thin Wall Impact Socket 27mm used for?

Accepted Answer

It’s a heavy‑duty 1/2" drive socket with a 6‑point 27mm hex opening designed for impact drivers. The thin‑wall construction helps you reach fasteners in tight spaces while delivering solid torque and reducing fastener rounding.

Question 2

What does 'thin wall' mean and why is it important?

Accepted Answer

Thin‑wall means the socket walls are slimmer than standard sockets. This allows access in confined areas where regular sockets won’t fit, helping you engage fasteners without removing surrounding components.

Question 3

What does the 6-point design do for me?

Accepted Answer

The 6‑point design provides greater contact with the flats of the fastener, improving torque transfer and reducing the chance of rounding on stubborn or seized fasteners.

Question 4

Is this socket compatible with 1/2" drive tools and impact drivers?

Accepted Answer

Yes. It’s specifically made for 1/2" drive tools and is built to withstand impact use. Use with an impact driver or shock‑free ratchet designed for heavy duty tasks.

Question 5

What are the key specifications of this socket?

Accepted Answer

Key specs: 27mm hex opening, 6‑point design, thin‑wall construction, 1/2" drive, made for impact use, off‑corner loading design to reduce fastener rounding and help with tight clearance work.

Question 6

What are common use cases for this thin‑wall 27mm socket?

Accepted Answer

Ideal for automotive and industrial tasks where space is tight, such as brake work, suspension fasteners, exhaust systems, or any application where standard sockets won’t reach and high torque is needed.

Question 7

How do I install and use this socket effectively?

Accepted Answer

Attach the socket to a compatible 1/2" drive tool, ensure the fastener is aligned with the 27mm opening, apply steady torque with an impact driver or high‑torque tool, and avoid using it on fasteners that aren’t properly seated or are damaged.

Question 8

What materials and safety considerations apply to this socket?

Accepted Answer

It’s built from impact‑grade alloy steel for durability under heavy use. Safety tips: wear eye protection, verify the fastener size before engagement, avoid striking the socket with a hammer, and inspect for cracks or wear after use.

Question 10

Can I use this 27mm socket for other fastener sizes?

Accepted Answer

Only use it with fasteners that match the 27mm hex size. Using a different size can damage both the fastener and the socket, so select the correct size for each fastener.

Question 11

How should I clean and store this socket when not in use?
