Gearwrench 84527N 1/2 in Drive 15mm Impact Socket 6-pt

Product Description

The GEARWRENCH 84527N is a 15mm, 6-point impact socket designed for use with 1/2 inch drive impact wrenches and ratchets. Built from chromium-molybdenum steel with a black oxide finish, it is engineered to handle the high-torque demands of impact tools in professional shop and field environments. The standard-length design measures 1.496 inches overall length. High-visibility laser-etched markings provide fast size identification, and secondary hard-stamped size markings serve as a backup when the laser etching wears. Licensed mechanics, automotive technicians, and industrial maintenance trades are the primary users of this socket.

This socket is suited for automotive, heavy equipment, and general industrial fastener work where a 15mm metric hex fastener is common. Standard-length geometry makes it appropriate for most exposed fastener applications without the clearance requirements of a deep socket. The 1/2 inch drive size positions it for mid-range to heavy-duty torque applications. It carries no insulation rating and is not rated non-sparking, so it is intended for standard mechanical service environments rather than electrical or hazardous-atmosphere work.

Key Features

• Chromium-molybdenum steel construction handles high-torque impact tool use
• 6-point drive geometry with off-corner loading design reduces fastener rounding
• High-visibility laser-etched markings for quick size identification in the field
• Secondary hard-stamped size markings provide a durable backup identification method
• Black oxide finish for corrosion resistance and reduced glare
• Meets ASME B107.33M standards

Compatibility

Designed as a standard OEM-style 1/2 inch drive metric impact socket compatible with 1/2 inch drive impact wrenches, air ratchets, and hand ratchets used in automotive and industrial service.

Installation Notes

Install and remove using standard 1/2 inch drive impact wrenches or hand ratchets. Inspect the socket for cracks or deformation before each use and remove from service if damage is found. Do not use impact sockets on powered fastening tools that exceed the rated torque range for the socket size. This socket carries no insulation rating and must not be used on energized fasteners.
