Proto, J7426S, Impact Socket, 1/2 in Drive; 13/16 in; 8 Point; SAE

Crafted by Proto, this impact socket is designed to tackle stubborn or damaged fasteners with ease, making it an invaluable tool for professionals and DIY enthusiasts alike. With a robust construction in high-strength steel, it minimizes wall thickness, allowing access to recessed fasteners and protruding nuts and bolts. The innovative Torqueplus internal design not only reduces the risk of rounding fasteners but also extends their lifespan, enabling easier handling of worn or rusted components. Engineered to withstand the high torque and force associated with impact tools, this socket features tight tolerances for a snug fit on fasteners and improved distinctive characteristics like large clearance holes and a nut end chamfer for efficient positioning. The sockets are suitable for repetitive applications, with a design that shifts stress away from fastener corners, promoting durability and minimizing slippage. This combination of performance and practical features makes it an essential addition to any tool collection.

Features

• Proto 8 point impact sockets are ideal for use on stubborn or damaged fasteners, and also on fasteners made from soft materials
• 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 internal design minimizes fastener rounding, helps to extend fastener life, and allows the user to more easily turn worn, rounded, or rusted fasteners
• Impact sockets are designed to withstand higher torque and force associated with impact tools in repetitive application
• Large clearance holes, concentric opening and nut end chamfer make it easy to position socket on fasteners
• Impact sockets are used wherever powered drive tools are used to install or remove fasteners
• Tight tolerances for snug fit on fastener
• 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
• Drive end chamfer and four detents help provide quick positive engagement with drive tool on any of the socket drive walls
• The torqueplus design is a high performance drive configuration which allows for quick and easy socket engagement to the fastener flats, not the corners
