Proto, J7422S, Impact Socket, 1/2 in Drive; 11/16 in Size; 8 Point Design

Crafted for durability and superior performance, this impact socket from Proto features an 8-point design that ensures a snug fit on fasteners, making it ideal for use in both standard and demanding applications. Engineered from high-strength steel, it offers reduced wall thickness while providing easy access to fasteners in tight spaces. Its innovative TorquePlus design enhances socket engagement by focusing contact on the flats of fasteners rather than the corners, significantly minimizing slippage and damage to worn or rusted fasteners. This socket is specifically designed to withstand the rigors of high torque and repetitive use, making it a reliable choice for tackling stubborn or damaged fasteners with ease.

Features

• Impact sockets are used wherever powered drive tools are used to install or remove fasteners
• Drive end chamfer and four detents help provide quick positive engagement with drive tool on any of the socket drive walls
• Tight tolerances for snug fit on fastener
• Large clearance holes, concentric opening and nut end chamfer make it easy to position socket on fasteners
• Made from high-strength steel to help minimize wall thickness and provide access to fasteners in recesses and where nuts and bolts protrude
• The TorquePlus design is a high performance drive configuration which allows for quick and easy socket engagement to the fastener flats, not the corners
• The TorquePlus configuration employs a radius-corner design, shifting contact area and stress away from the fastener corners and distributing contact stresses over a large area of the socket, minimizing slippage
• Proto 8 Point Impact Sockets are ideal for use on stubborn or damaged fasteners, and also on fasteners made from soft materials
• Impact sockets are designed to withstand higher torque and force associated with impact tools in repetitive application
• The TorquePlus internal design minimizes fastener rounding, helps to extend fastener life, and allows the user to more easily turn worn, rounded, or rusted fasteners
