Milwaukee Tool 49-16-1618 Impact Socket 18mm 9/16 Drive

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE TOOL 49-16-1618 is a 6-point deep impact socket designed for professional-grade fastening and removal applications. Built with a 9/16 inch hex drive and an 18mm socket size, it delivers reliable torque transfer in high-demand impact wrench applications. The steel construction features a black oxide finish that resists corrosion and reduces glare in the field. At 0.96 inches overall length, this deep socket reaches recessed fasteners that standard-depth sockets cannot access. It is rated as non-sparking, making it appropriate for use in environments where ignition risk is a concern. Licensed tradespeople across mechanical, industrial, and construction trades rely on this type of socket for daily production work.

This socket is suited for use with 9/16 inch drive impact wrenches and drive tools in both residential and commercial service environments. The deep hex profile accommodates 18mm fasteners in recessed or hard-to-reach positions. Non-sparking construction makes it appropriate for controlled or hazardous work environments where standard steel tooling may not be permitted. The black oxide finish is standard for impact-rated sockets, providing a non-reflective surface and basic corrosion resistance for field and shop use.

Installation Notes

Impact sockets should be installed and removed by qualified tradespeople familiar with drive tool torque ratings and fastener specifications. Always verify the drive tool and socket drive size match before applying torque. Inspect the socket for cracks or deformation before each use and remove from service if damage is found. Do not use impact sockets with hand ratchets not rated for impact loads.
