SATA GL34524 3/4" Drive 6 Point Impact Socket 36mm

The 6‑point (double hex) design grips the flat sides of nuts and bolts more effectively than a 12‑point socket. This reduces rounding under high torque, provides a more secure fit, and minimizes slippage during impact or heavy tightening.

It’s made from chrome molybdenum steel (Cr‑Mo), a high‑strength alloy that handles heavy torque and impact. It also features a black oxide finish that helps resist rust and corrosion, preserving performance and appearance.

The 36mm refers to the socket opening that fits fasteners with a 36mm head or recess. It’s suitable for large automotive and industrial fasteners where a 3/4" drive socket is needed for high torque.

Off-corner loading shifts contact away from the corners of a fastener, reducing rounding and wear. This design helps distribute forces more evenly during use, extending both the socket and fastener life in tough, high‑torque scenarios.

Ideal use cases include heavy automotive work (ring gear, transmissions, axle assemblies), industrial maintenance, and any job requiring high torque with impact tools where a secure, durable socket is essential.

Attach the socket to a compatible 3/4" drive impact wrench or breaker bar, ensure a snug fit on the fastener, and apply steady, controlled torque. Keep hands and clothing clear of moving parts, wear eye protection, and avoid using damaged sockets.

Clean off dirt and contaminants after use, inspect for cracks or wear, apply a light rust‑prevention wipe if stored in a damp area, and store in a protected toolbox. Avoid hammering on damaged sockets and replace any that show signs of excessive wear.

Use with compatible 3/4" drive impact tools, ensure proper PPE, and avoid using the socket on fasteners beyond its rated size or on damaged fasteners. The design emphasizes safety features to minimize slippage and breakage under heavy use.

These options provide comparable build quality for different fastener sizes.

Consider the target fastener size and your torque needs. The 36mm socket is tailored for large fasteners, while around‑the‑size variants (e.g., 38mm or 32mm) suit slightly different fastener heads. For frequent high‑torque work, choose the size that best matches your typical fasteners to maximize grip and minimize rounding.

This socket offers high‑torsion resilience, off‑corner loading protection, clear size markings, and a robust Cr‑Mo alloy with a corrosion‑resistant finish. It’s designed for long service life in professional environments, reducing the need for frequent replacements when used as intended.
