Proto, J7218M, Impact Socket, 3/8 in Drive, 18 mm, 6 Point

Crafted by Proto, this 18 mm impact socket features a 3/8 inch drive and a six-point design, tailored for exceptional performance on stubborn, worn, or damaged fasteners. The innovative TorquePlus internal configuration enhances engagement by focusing stress away from fastener corners, allowing for efficient torque transfer without the risk of slippage. Additionally, the size is conveniently stamped on the socket for easy identification, and it includes a side locking hole for secure attachment. Ideal for those dealing with fasteners made from softer materials, this socket not only extends the life of both the fasteners and the tool itself but also facilitates the handling of rusted or rounded components with ease.
