Milwaukee Tool 49-16-1612 12mm Impact Socket 6-point

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE TOOL 49-16-1612 is a 12mm, 6-point deep impact socket with a 9/16 inch hex drive, designed for use with impact wrenches and drivers in demanding trade applications. Constructed from steel with a black oxide finish, this socket resists corrosion and wear under repeated high-torque use. The non-sparking designation makes it suitable for environments where ignition risk is a concern. At 0.69 inches overall length, it is a compact deep socket appropriate for fastener access in tight or recessed positions. Electricians, mechanical contractors, and industrial maintenance technicians regularly reach for this socket when working with impact tooling.

This socket is suited for residential and commercial service work, manufacturing environments, and maintenance applications where impact-rated tooling is required. The deep 6-point profile seats firmly on hex fasteners, reducing the risk of rounding under load. The non-sparking characteristic makes it appropriate for use in facilities with flammable materials or regulated environments where standard steel tools are restricted.

Installation Notes

Installation and removal of this socket should be performed with the tool powered down and the fastener accessible. Impact sockets are not interchangeable with hand-tool sockets under sustained impact use — confirm the drive tool is rated for impact service before use. In regulated or hazardous environments, verify compliance with applicable safety standards before substituting tooling. Inspect the socket for cracks or deformation before each use and replace if damage is found.
