Gearwrench 84301N 3/8 in Drive 3/8 in Impact Socket 6-pt

Product Description

The GEARWRENCH 84301N is a 6-point hex drive impact socket designed for use with 3/8 inch drive impact wrenches and rattle guns. Constructed from chromium-molybdenum steel with a black oxide finish, this standard-length socket measures 1.102 inches overall and weighs 0.08 pounds. The off-corner loading design reduces fastener rounding during high-torque impact applications, making it a reliable choice for HVAC techs, plumbers, electricians, and general mechanical tradespeople working in confined or high-cycle environments. High-visibility laser-etched size markings and secondary hard-stamped markings allow for fast identification in the field.

The 84301N is suited for residential and commercial service work where a 3/8 inch fastener and a compact standard-length socket profile are required. Its 3/8 inch drive accepts standard 3/8 inch impact drivers and ratchets. The 6-point geometry provides full-face contact with fastener flats, which is especially useful when working with worn or recessed hardware. This socket is intended for use by licensed trades professionals and experienced installers who require impact-rated tooling built to ASME B107.2 standards.

Installation Notes

This socket is intended for installation and removal tasks performed by qualified trade professionals using impact-rated drive tools. Always verify the drive tool torque range is appropriate for the fastener and joint material before use. Do not use impact sockets with non-impact hand ratchets beyond their rated capacity. Inspect the socket for cracks or deformation before each use and replace if any damage is found.
