Milwaukee Tool 49-66-6290 Impact Socket 1/2 in 29mm 6-pt

Product Description

The MILWAUKEE TOOL 49-66-6290 is a 1/2 inch drive, 29mm impact socket designed for use with impact wrenches and high-torque drive tools. Built to standard length with a 6-point hex drive geometry, this socket is manufactured from steel with a black phosphate finish that resists corrosion and reduces glare in the work area. The non-sparking construction makes it suitable for use in environments where ignition risk is a concern. At 0.79 pounds, it delivers a solid feel without adding unnecessary bulk to a tool bag or socket set. This is a purpose-built impact-rated socket, not a chrome hand-tool socket, and is intended for powered drive applications.

This socket is suited for mechanical, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical trade work where 29mm fasteners appear on equipment mounting hardware, flanges, pipe fittings, access panels, and structural connections. Standard-length geometry fits most impact gun anvils without clearance issues in typical service and installation scenarios. The 1/2 inch drive sizing is the most common impact drive standard across cordless and pneumatic tools used by trade professionals in both residential and commercial settings.

Key Features

• 1/2 inch drive fits standard impact wrenches and drive extensions
• 29mm socket size for metric fastener applications
• 6-point hex drive reduces fastener rounding under high torque
• Non-sparking construction approved for use in ignition-sensitive environments
• Black phosphate finish resists rust and corrosion
• Standard length profile clears most fastener recesses without extensions

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style impact socket for use with 1/2 inch drive impact wrenches, ratchets, and torque tools accepting standard 1/2 inch square drive accessories.

Installation Notes

Impact sockets must be used only with impact-rated drive tools. Do not use this socket with standard chrome hand-tool ratchets, as impact forces can cause hand-tool drive components to fail. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying drive force. Technicians should follow applicable safety codes and manufacturer guidelines when working near electrical components or in potentially flammable environments where the non-sparking rating is relied upon.
