Question 1

What is the SATA GL34843 1" Drive 6 Point Impact Socket 55mm designed to do?

Accepted Answer

It's a heavy‑duty 1" drive impact socket with a 6‑point design, built to grip large hex fasteners securely when used with an impact driver. The off‑corner loading helps prevent rounding and allows efficient torque transfer on tough bolts.

Question 2

What are the key specifications and attributes of this socket?

Accepted Answer

Construction: high‑tensile steel for durability; Drive size: 1"; Fastener size: 55mm; 6‑point grip; off‑corner loading design to reduce rounding; durable protective finish that resists rust and corrosion.

Question 3

What are common use cases for the 55mm 1" drive 6‑point socket?

Accepted Answer

Ideal for large fasteners in heavy machinery, industrial equipment, construction gear, and automotive maintenance where high torque is required and fasteners are large (55mm).

Question 4

How do I install and use this socket with an impact driver?

Accepted Answer

Attach the socket to a compatible 1" drive impact driver, ensure it sits fully seated on the fastener, apply steady torque, and avoid hammering or misalignment. Remove the fastener in the reverse direction after loosening.

Question 5

Why choose a 6‑point socket over a 12‑point for large fasteners?

Accepted Answer

A 6‑point design provides a tighter, more secure grip on hex bolts, reduces rounding risk, and improves torque transfer, which is especially important for large fasteners like 55mm in heavy equipment.

Question 6

What safety precautions should I follow when using this socket?

Accepted Answer

Wear eye protection and gloves, inspect the socket for cracks or damage before use, ensure the fastener and socket are properly aligned, use the correct drive size, and avoid exposing the tool to impacts that could cause injury or injury to the socket.

Question 7

How does this socket compare to other similar sockets available on Fepy.com?

Accepted Answer

For larger fasteners, you might consider the 60mm variant (SATA GL34844) at https://fepy.com/products/sata-gl34844-1-drive-6-point-impact-socket-60mm which handles bigger bolts with similar build quality. For slightly smaller needs, the 50mm variant (SATA GL34842) at https://fepy.com/products/sata-gl34842-1-drive-6-point-impact-socket-50mm offers a comparable 6‑point grip in a smaller size. Both options maintain the same heavy‑duty construction and off‑corner design.

Question 8

Are there other 1" drive 6‑point options on Fepy.com if I need a different size?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can explore related sizes such as the 60mm variant at https://fepy.com/products/sata-gl34844-1-drive-6-point-impact-socket-60mm or the 50mm variant at https://fepy.com/products/sata-gl34842-1-drive-6-point-impact-socket-50mm to find the best fit for your fasteners.

Question 9

Can this socket be used with other drive sizes or adapters?

Accepted Answer

This is a dedicated 1" drive socket. To use it with other drive sizes, you would typically need an appropriate adapter, but adapters can introduce play, torque loss, or misfit risks, so it’s best to match the socket to a 1" drive tool.

Question 10

What maintenance or care does this socket require to maximize life?

Accepted Answer

Wipe after use to remove debris, inspect for cracks or wear before each use, store in a protective case to prevent rust or impact damage, and keep away from moisture to maintain the finish and corrosion resistance.

What should I know about value and return options for this socket?

Accepted Answer

The 55mm 1" drive 6‑point socket offers durability and reliability for high‑torque tasks. If you’re not satisfied, you can refer to Fepy’s standard return options for unopened or eligible items, ensuring you have a path to a suitable replacement or refund if it doesn’t meet your needs.

Question 12

Are there any size markings or identification features on this socket?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The socket features large markings for easy size identification and an off‑corner loading design to help prevent rounding, making it straightforward to select the correct tool quickly on the job.
