It is machined from Chrome Molybdenum Alloy Steel (Cr-Mo), a material selected for high-cycle impact use where standard chrome vanadium sockets would crack or deform under repeated stress. The deep profile accommodates extended fasteners, studs, and recessed bolt heads that standard-depth sockets cannot reach. An off-corner loading design transfers drive force away from fastener corners, significantly reducing the chance of rounding hardware during high-torque removal. A manganese phosphate coating provides corrosion resistance in wet or chemically exposed environments. High-visibility laser-etched size markings and secondary hard stamping ensure the socket size remains legible throughout its service life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis socket is suited for professional use in automotive, heavy equipment, fleet maintenance, and industrial fastener applications where a 1\/2 inch drive impact tool is the primary driver. The deep well depth makes it especially practical for lug nut removal, suspension work, and engine bay fasteners where bolt length or stud protrusion prevents a standard-depth socket from seating fully. Licensed mechanics, fleet technicians, and industrial maintenance professionals typically reach for this socket when working with air or electric impact wrenches in high-torque applications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChrome Molybdenum Alloy Steel (Cr-Mo) construction for impact-rated strength and durability\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6-point drive geometry for maximum torque transfer on hex fasteners\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOff-corner loading design reduces fastener rounding during removal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManganese phosphate coating resists corrosion in wet and chemically exposed environments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeep well profile fits extended fasteners, studs, and recessed bolt heads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh-visibility laser-etched markings with secondary hard stamping for lasting size identification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eDesigned for use with 1\/2 inch drive impact wrenches, ratchets, and breaker bars in SAE fastener applications requiring a 3\/8 inch deep socket.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis socket is intended for use by professional mechanics and industrial technicians using 1\/2 inch drive impact or hand tools. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque to avoid slippage or fastener damage. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use, and do not use impact-rated sockets with hand-only ratchets beyond their rated capacity. Disengage all power to pneumatic or electric impact tools before changing sockets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDrive Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/2 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSocket Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 3\/8 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoint Count\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6 point\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProfile\u003c\/strong\u003e: Deep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurement System\u003c\/strong\u003e: SAE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Chrome Molybdenum Alloy Steel (Cr-Mo)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoating\u003c\/strong\u003e: Manganese Phosphate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: APEX\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 84546n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"APEX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51233801208114,"sku":"84546N","price":22.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/307626510.jpg?v=1780109347","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/apex-84546n-1-2-in-drive-deep-impact-socket-3-8-in","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
