The Proto 1/2-Inch Drive 12 Point Impact Socket features the patented TorquePlus drive configuration, designed for quick and easy engagement to fastener flats rather than corners. The radius-corner design shifts contact area and stress away from fastener corners, distributing load over a larger surface area to minimize slippage and reduce fastener damage.
Ideal for use on stubborn or damaged fasteners as well as fasteners made from soft materials, this impact socket delivers high-performance torque transfer in demanding MRO and industrial applications. The 12-point configuration provides versatile fastener access in tight spaces.
