Gearwrench 84534N 1/2 in Drive 22mm Impact Socket 6-point

Product Description

The GEARWRENCH 84534N is a 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 delivers the toughness required for high-torque fastener removal and installation. The standard-length design measures 1.614 inches overall. High-visibility laser-etched markings and secondary hard-stamped size markings make size identification fast in the field. This socket meets ASME B107.33M standards and carries a lifetime warranty, making it a reliable addition to any professional tool set.

This socket is suited for automotive, heavy equipment, and general mechanical applications where a 22mm hex fastener needs to be driven with impact force. The 1/2 inch drive size is the standard choice for mid-range torque applications common in both shop and field environments. Licensed mechanics, fleet technicians, and service professionals working in automotive and industrial settings will find this a straightforward, durable replacement or addition to their impact socket inventory. It is a metric-sized socket appropriate for vehicles and equipment using metric fasteners.

Key Features

• Chromium-molybdenum steel construction handles repeated impact loads without cracking or deforming
• Black oxide finish provides corrosion resistance in typical shop environments
• 6-point contact geometry reduces fastener rounding compared to 12-point designs
• Off-corner loading design helps protect fastener hex surfaces during high-torque applications
• High-visibility laser-etched markings and secondary hard-stamped size markings for quick identification
• Meets ASME B107.33M standards for impact socket performance and dimensional accuracy
• Lifetime warranty backed by GEARWRENCH

Compatibility

Designed as a standard OEM-style metric impact socket for use with 1/2 inch drive impact wrenches, air tools, and ratchets requiring a 22mm hex drive socket.

Installation Notes

This socket is intended for use by qualified mechanics and service technicians. Always ensure the drive tool is powered down or the air supply is disconnected before changing sockets. Do not use impact sockets with standard hand-tool ratchets not rated for impact service, as this can cause socket or tool failure. Inspect the socket for cracks or deformation before each use and replace if any damage is found.
