Proto J07517MT Impact Socket 3/4 in Drive 17mm 12-pt

Product Description

The PROTO J07517MT is a 12-point impact socket designed for 3/4 inch drive impact wrenches and torque tools used in professional mechanical and industrial service work. Built from alloy steel, this socket measures 17mm across the drive opening and has an overall length of 1-29/32 inches, making it compact enough for tight access while maintaining the wall thickness required to handle high-torque impact loading. The 12-point geometry allows engagement at 30-degree increments, giving technicians more positioning flexibility in confined spaces. This socket is suited for licensed mechanics, maintenance trades, and industrial service professionals working with heavy-duty fastener applications.

The J07517MT fits standard 3/4 inch drive impact guns and manual torque wrenches. It is appropriate for automotive, heavy equipment, and industrial maintenance environments where 17mm fasteners are common. The 12-point profile works on both standard hex fasteners and double-hex fasteners, expanding its utility across a range of equipment types. Typical applications include suspension and drivetrain work, structural bolting, and general mechanical assembly requiring controlled or impact-driven torque.

Key Features

• 3/4 inch drive size compatible with standard impact and torque drive tools
• 17mm socket size for metric fastener applications
• 12-point design allows 30-degree engagement increments for tighter working angles
• Alloy steel construction provides impact-rated strength and durability
• Compact 1-29/32 inch overall length suits confined installation environments

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-service socket for 3/4 inch drive impact and torque tools used in professional mechanical and industrial applications.

Installation Notes

Install and remove using a 3/4 inch drive impact wrench or torque wrench rated for the fastener application. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the drive anvil and fastener before applying torque to prevent rounding or slippage. Inspect the socket for cracks or deformation before each use, as impact loading can cause fatigue over time. Discard any socket showing visible damage rather than continuing service.
