Proto, J7216M, Impact Socket, 3/8 in Drive; 16 mm, 6 Point, TorquePlus Design

Engineered for high performance and durability, the Proto 3/8 inch drive impact socket features a 16 mm size and a unique TorquePlus design, ensuring quick engagement with fasteners at their flats rather than corners. This thoughtful configuration minimizes fastener rounding and helps extend their life, making it easier to work with worn, rounded, or rusted fasteners. Stamped for easy identification, this socket is particularly effective on stubborn or damaged fasteners and those made from softer materials. With a radius-corner design, it redistributes contact stresses over a larger area, substantially reducing the risk of slippage during use. This tool is an essential addition for any mechanic or technician looking for reliable and effective solutions in challenging fastening situations.
