Proto, J6512MH, Impact Socket, 1/4 in Drive; 12 mm, 6 Point, 2.000 in Length

This impact socket from Proto is engineered with a focus on performance and durability, making it an essential tool for any mechanic or DIY enthusiast. Measuring 12 mm and featuring a 1/4 inch drive, its 6-point configuration ensures a secure fit, preventing rounding of fasteners, especially those that are stubborn or damaged. The innovative TorquePlus design enhances engagement with the fastener flats rather than the corners, which minimizes slippage and distributes stress over a larger area, ultimately extending the life of both socket and fastener. For added convenience, the socket size is clearly stamped on the tool for quick identification, and its side locking hole allows for secure attachment to the drive. With a length of 2 inches, this socket is compact enough to access tight spaces while providing reliable performance in demanding conditions. Whether you're tackling a tough repair or routine maintenance, this impact socket is built to meet the challenges of your projects head-on.
