Milwaukee Tool 49-16-1615 Impact Socket 15mm 9/16 Drive

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE TOOL 49-16-1615 is a 15mm deep impact socket designed for use with 9/16-inch hex drive impact wrenches and drivers. Built from steel with a black oxide finish, this 6-point socket delivers reliable torque transfer on fasteners in demanding trade applications. The deep profile accommodates extended or recessed fasteners that shallow sockets cannot reach. At 0.87 inches overall length and 0.11 pounds, it is compact enough for tight spaces while still providing full coverage on the fastener flat. Licensed electricians, HVAC technicians, plumbers, and mechanical contractors reach for this socket when working with impact tools on equipment installation and service work.

This socket is suited for residential and light commercial mechanical work where impact-rated tooling is required. The non-sparking designation makes it appropriate for environments where ignition risk is a concern, such as gas appliance installation, refrigeration work, or service near fuel lines. The 6-point geometry reduces rounding on hex fasteners compared to 12-point designs, making it a preferred choice when working on worn or corroded hardware in HVAC, plumbing, and electrical panel installation scenarios.

Key Features

• 15mm socket size with 9/16-inch hex drive for compatibility with common impact tools
• 6-point drive geometry minimizes fastener rounding on hex hardware
• Deep profile reaches recessed and extended fasteners
• Non-sparking construction appropriate for use near gas lines and flammable materials
• Black oxide finish provides corrosion resistance in field conditions
• Steel construction rated for impact driver and impact wrench use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style impact-rated socket for use with 9/16-inch hex drive impact wrenches and drivers in trade and mechanical service applications.

Installation Notes

This socket is installed and removed by hand onto a 9/16-inch hex drive impact tool — no special tools are required for attachment. Always ensure the drive tool is powered down or the air supply is disconnected before changing sockets. When working near gas lines or in potentially flammable environments, verify that non-sparking tooling is required by your site safety plan and applicable codes. Inspect the socket for cracks or deformation before each use and replace if wear is evident.
