Apex 84575n 1/2 in Drive Deep Impact Socket 17mm

Product Description

The APEX 84575n is a 1/2 inch drive, 6-point deep impact metric socket sized at 17mm. Built from Chrome Molybdenum alloy steel (Cr-Mo), this socket delivers the toughness required for high-torque impact work in demanding shop and field conditions. The off-corner loading design shifts force away from fastener corners, reducing the risk of rounding damaged or corroded hardware. A manganese phosphate coating provides corrosion resistance in wet and grime-heavy environments. High-visibility laser-etched markings and secondary hard stamping ensure the size reads clearly throughout the life of the socket, even with heavy use.

This deep socket is suited for automotive, fleet, and industrial mechanical work where additional clearance is needed to reach recessed fasteners on wheel assemblies, suspension components, engine hardware, and chassis applications. The 17mm size is commonly used on metric fasteners found across a wide range of passenger vehicles, light trucks, and equipment. The 1/2 inch drive connection fits standard 1/2 inch impact wrenches, ratchets, and extensions used by professional mechanics and trade technicians.

Key Features

• Chrome Molybdenum alloy steel (Cr-Mo) construction for high-torque impact durability
• 6-point deep profile for secure engagement on metric fasteners
• Off-corner loading design reduces fastener rounding under load
• Manganese phosphate coating resists corrosion in harsh environments
• Laser-etched markings with secondary hard stamping for long-term size legibility
• 1/2 inch drive connection for use with standard impact wrenches and ratchets

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit deep impact socket for use with 1/2 inch drive impact wrenches, ratchets, and extensions in professional and trade service applications.

Installation Notes

This socket is intended for installation and removal of metric fasteners by professional mechanics and trade technicians. Always ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener and on the drive tool before applying torque. Inspect the socket for cracks or deformation before each use and remove from service if damage is found. Follow applicable shop safety procedures and wear appropriate PPE when operating impact tools.
