Gearwrench 84306N Impact Socket 3/8 in Drive 11/16 in 6-point

Product Description

The GEARWRENCH 84306N is a 3/8 inch drive, 11/16 inch SAE impact socket built for professional-grade fastener work in demanding shop and field conditions. Constructed from chromium-molybdenum steel with a black oxide finish, it delivers the toughness required for use with impact wrenches and drivers. The 6-point hex drive profile and off-corner loading design reduce fastener rounding and improve torque transfer. High-visibility laser-etched size markings, backed by secondary hard-stamped markings, allow quick socket identification during busy service work. Overall length is 1.181 inches, keeping the profile compact for standard-depth fastener applications. Meets ASME B107.2 standards and carries a lifetime warranty.

This socket is suited for automotive, fleet, HVAC, plumbing, and general mechanical service applications where 3/8 inch drive impact tools are standard. The 11/16 inch SAE sizing covers common fastener sizes found on residential and light commercial equipment, vehicle chassis hardware, and mechanical assemblies. Licensed mechanics, HVAC technicians, and service plumbers will find this socket a reliable addition to a standard 3/8 inch drive impact set. It is sold individually, making it a direct replacement for a worn or missing socket without requiring a full set purchase.

Key Features

• Chromium-molybdenum steel construction rated for impact tool use

Compatibility

Designed as a standard OEM-style 3/8 inch drive impact socket compatible with 3/8 inch drive impact wrenches and ratchets accepting standard hex drive sockets.

Installation Notes

This socket is installed by mechanics, HVAC technicians, and service tradespeople using 3/8 inch drive impact wrenches or ratchets. Always verify the fastener size matches the socket before applying torque. Inspect the socket for cracks or deformation before each use and replace if damaged. Do not use impact sockets on non-impact hand ratchets in applications that exceed the tool rating.
