Milwaukee Tool has released its Shockwave Impact Duty six-point socket lineup, available in 1/4-, 3/8-, 1/2-, 3/4-, and 1-in. drives.
Engineered for use with impact wrenches, drivers, and ratchets, the company says the Shockwave Impact Duty line of sockets provide maximum wear resistance with stamped and ink-filled size markings. Constructed with high-strength forged steel, these sockets deliver optimized performance in heavy-duty applications, and a non-slip hex geometry prevents socket and fastener rounding, the company says. The sockets come with a dual-hole design and ring groove.
Milwaukee also offers impact socket accessories including socket extensions, universal joints, adapters and reducers. The impact socket extensions allow access in hard-to-reach places, while universal joints feature a 15- or 25-degree swivel, the company says.
Impact socket adapters and reducers allow users to convert their tool for usage with different drive size sockets. The Shockwave Impact Duty accessories are available in 1/4-, 3/8-, 1/2-, 3/4-, and 1-in. drive sizes. Retaining Rings feature a one-piece design and are made of a flexible rubber material.
Milwaukee Socket Rails use removeable end caps with interchangeable socket rail clips compatible with all 1/4-, 3/8-, 1/2-in. drive chrome and impact sockets.
All new Shockwave Impact Duty Sockets and socket accessories meet ASME industry standards to ensure proper fit to the fastener and both the impact sockets and impact socket extensions are backed by Milwaukee’s Lifetime Guarantee, the company says.
