Gearwrench 84518N 1/2 in Drive 1-1/2 in Impact Socket 6-pt

Product Description

The GEARWRENCH 84518N is a 1/2 inch drive, 1-1/2 inch 6-point impact socket built for professional fastener work in demanding trade environments. Constructed from chromium-molybdenum steel with a black oxide finish, this standard-length socket measures 1.909 inches overall and weighs 1.15 pounds. The 6-point hex drive geometry and off-corner loading design reduce the risk of rounding fastener heads under high-torque impact conditions. High-visibility laser-etched markings paired with secondary hard-stamped size markings allow fast size identification in low-light or dirty job site conditions. Licensed HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and general trade mechanics will find this socket well-suited for high-cycle impact driver use.

This socket is intended for use with 1/2 inch drive impact wrenches and rattle guns in residential and commercial service applications. Its standard-length profile fits typical fastener access situations without requiring an extension in most cases. The SAE sizing and ASME B107.2 compliance make it appropriate for structural, mechanical, and equipment fastening tasks across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general mechanical trades. It is not insulated and is not rated non-sparking, so appropriate jobsite precautions apply.

Key Features

• 6-point off-corner loading design reduces fastener rounding under impact torque
• Chromium-molybdenum steel construction handles high-torque impact driver output
• Black oxide finish resists corrosion in field and shop environments
• High-visibility laser-etched markings for fast size identification
• Secondary hard-stamped size markings provide a backup ID method when laser markings wear
• Meets ASME B107.2 standards for impact socket performance
• Lifetime warranty coverage from GEARWRENCH

Compatibility

Designed for use with standard 1/2 inch drive impact wrenches and rattle guns. SAE sizing in 1-1/2 inch fits common structural and mechanical fasteners encountered in HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trade work.

Installation Notes

Install and remove with a 1/2 inch drive impact wrench or breaker bar. Power down or de-energize any equipment being serviced before applying torque to fasteners. This socket is not insulated and must not be used near energized conductors. Inspect the socket for cracks or deformation before each use and remove from service if damage is found.
