Industrial Impact Sockets

POWER DRIVES impact sockets are designed for professional tool users. They are engineered specifically for use with impact tools using the most up to date industrial specifications. Impact sockets are made with thicker walls and tempered to a lower hardness so as not to shatter under the impacts. They are typically finished in black oxide rather than the chrome plating typical of the hand-tool variety.  Since impact sockets are used in demanding applications, impact sockets are designed to sustain the impacts. Look inside the square drive hole for a mark in the metal that looks like it’s been gouged with a fingernail. This indicates that the drive has been formed by pushing a rod through the metal during the forging process, Impact sockets are available in different sizes and types. A few common types that are used are as under:
