Apex MX-1108 Impact Socket 1/4 in Drive 1/4 in Hex

Product Description

The APEX MX-1108 is a 1/4 inch drive, 1/4 inch hex impact socket designed for use with pneumatic and electric impact wrenches in professional trade environments. Manufactured from proprietary alloy steel with a specialized heat treat process, this 6-point socket delivers greater strength, tighter tolerances, and more consistent torque transfer than standard sockets. The standard-length design measures 7/8 inches overall, keeping it compact for use in confined fastener locations. It is suited for electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and general mechanical trades who require reliable fastener engagement under repeated impact loads.

This socket is intended for use in residential and commercial maintenance, equipment installation, and service applications where 1/4 inch hex fasteners are encountered. The magnetic retention style aids in single-handed fastener placement, reducing dropped hardware in tight spaces. The SAE sizing and compliance with ANSI and DIN standards make it appropriate for a wide range of trade-standard fastening tasks. Sold as a single unit with no minimum order beyond one piece.

Key Features

• Proprietary alloy steel construction with specialized heat treat for extended bit life
• 6-point socket geometry for superior torque transfer and reduced fastener rounding
• Tighter manufacturing tolerances for consistent fit across fastener runs
• Magnetic style aids fastener retention during placement
• Meets ANSI and DIN standards for dimensional and performance compliance
• Standard length at 7/8 inches OAL suits confined-space applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style impact socket for use with 1/4 inch drive impact wrenches and ratchets in standard trade and industrial service applications.

Installation Notes

Install and remove using a 1/4 inch drive impact wrench or hand ratchet. Ensure the drive tool is powered down or the air supply is disconnected before changing sockets. Inspect the socket for cracks or deformation before each use and replace if wear is evident. This socket is not insulated and is not rated for live electrical work.
