Proto J10047L Impact Socket 1 in Drive 2-15/16 in 6-point

Product Description

The PROTO J10047L is a heavy-duty impact socket designed for use with 1 inch drive impact wrenches and ratchets. It features a 2-15/16 inch socket size with a 6-point hex drive geometry, providing full contact on fastener flats to reduce rounding under high-torque conditions. Constructed from alloy steel, this socket is built to handle the shock loads generated by pneumatic and hydraulic impact tools. The overall length measures 5 inches, making it suitable for standard access applications in industrial, heavy equipment, and fleet maintenance environments. Licensed tradespeople and heavy-equipment mechanics are the primary installers and users of this tool.

This impact socket is suited for torquing and removal of large fasteners found on heavy trucks, construction equipment, agricultural machinery, and structural assemblies. The 1 inch drive size places it in the heavy-duty tier, typically paired with 1 inch drive impact wrenches in fleet shops, mine sites, and industrial maintenance facilities. The 6-point configuration is the preferred choice when working with intact hex fasteners where maximizing surface contact is critical to preventing fastener damage.

Key Features

• 1 inch drive size for use with heavy-duty impact wrenches and ratchets
• 2-15/16 inch socket size for large hex fasteners
• 6-point hex drive design maximizes contact area and reduces fastener rounding
• Alloy steel construction rated for impact tool shock loads
• 5 inch overall length suits standard-reach applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style impact socket for use with 1 inch drive impact wrenches, ratchets, and torque multipliers in heavy-duty industrial and fleet service applications.

Installation Notes

This socket is intended for use by qualified mechanics and tradespeople using proper 1 inch drive impact equipment. Always confirm the drive tool and socket are rated for the torque output being applied. Inspect the socket for cracks, chips, or deformation before each use, and remove from service if damage is present. Never use impact sockets with hand-drive ratchets or vice versa, as the metallurgical properties differ between impact and hand-tool sockets.
