Proto J10046M Impact Socket 1 in Drive 46mm 6-point

Product Description

The PROTO J10046M is a 1-inch drive impact socket designed for heavy-duty fastening and removal applications where high torque is required. Built with a 6-point hex drive geometry, the socket delivers solid contact on fastener flats, reducing rounding and slippage under load. The 46mm socket size and 2-51/64-inch overall length make it well suited for large fasteners found in industrial, fleet, and heavy equipment work. At 2.63 pounds, it carries the mass expected of a full-size impact-rated socket. This socket is installed and used by mechanics, millwrights, and heavy equipment technicians working with pneumatic or hydraulic impact wrenches.

This socket is appropriate for industrial maintenance, fleet repair, agricultural equipment service, and construction equipment work where 46mm fasteners are common. The 1-inch drive size matches heavy-duty impact wrenches used in high-torque applications such as wheel end service on commercial trucks, large bolted assemblies, and structural fastener work. It is not intended for hand-ratchet use and should be paired with an impact-rated drive tool only.

Key Features

• 1-inch drive size for use with heavy-duty pneumatic and hydraulic impact wrenches
• 46mm socket size for large-format fasteners found in industrial and fleet applications
• 6-point hex drive geometry maximizes contact on fastener flats and reduces rounding under torque
• 2-51/64-inch overall length provides clearance in typical heavy equipment fastener access points
• Impact-rated construction designed to absorb the shock loads generated by impact tools

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and service socket compatible with 1-inch drive impact wrenches and 46mm hex fasteners in heavy-duty industrial and fleet service applications.

Installation Notes

This socket is intended for use by qualified mechanics and technicians using impact-rated drive tools only. Always verify the drive tool and socket are rated for the torque output being applied before use. Inspect the socket for cracks, chips, or deformation before each use and remove from service if damage is found. Never use impact sockets with hand ratchets or torque wrenches, as impact-rated sockets are not designed for that application.
