It features a 1\/4 inch male drive end and a 1\/4 inch female drive end, with an overall length of 1-13\/32 inches. Built to handle the high-torque, high-vibration output of pneumatic and cordless impact drivers, this joint allows angular movement between a drive tool and socket in tight or awkward access points. It meets ASME B107.2 specification, confirming it is manufactured to recognized hand tool performance standards. Technicians in HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and general mechanical trades rely on impact-rated universal joints for repetitive fastening tasks where a direct-drive approach is not possible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis universal joint is suited for residential and light commercial service work where 1\/4 inch drive impact tools are standard. Common applications include equipment panel fastener removal, sheet metal screw driving in HVAC installations, electrical box work, and any confined-space fastening scenario requiring an angled drive path. The compact 1-13\/32 inch overall length keeps the tool profile short, making it practical in tight mechanical spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eImpact-rated construction handles high-torque and high-vibration drive tools\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e1\/4 inch male to 1\/4 inch female drive configuration for standard 1\/4 inch drive impact sockets and bits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eOverall length of 1-13\/32 inches keeps tool stack short in confined spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMeets ASME B107.2 specification for hand tool performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAllows angular drive path between impact tool and socket in restricted access areas\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement and aftermarket option for 1\/4 inch drive impact tool sets requiring a universal joint adapter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis joint is intended for use by trade professionals working with 1\/4 inch drive impact drivers, ratchets, or extension sets. Ensure the drive tool is fully powered down or depressurized before connecting or disconnecting the universal joint. Inspect the joint for wear or play before each use, as impact service accelerates wear compared to hand-ratchet use. Replace immediately if looseness or cracking is detected, as a failed universal joint under impact load can cause injury or fastener damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJoint Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Impact Universal\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMale Drive Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFemale Drive Size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\/4 inch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverall Length\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1-13\/32 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.7 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWidth\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.7 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 0.07 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eASME Specification\u003c\/strong\u003e: B107.2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUNSPSC Code\u003c\/strong\u003e: 27110000\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: PROTO\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: J66170P\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"PROTO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51542143664434,"sku":"J66170P","price":47.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/db4ea74c0c3cbdd7d40eeff064a0de6f.jpg?v=1785893491","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/proto-j66170p-impact-universal-joint-1-4-in-male-female","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
