Proto J7214M Impact Socket 3/8 in Drive 14mm 6-point

Product Description

The PROTO J7214M is a 14mm 6-point impact socket with a 3/8 inch drive, built for use with impact wrenches and drivers in demanding trade and industrial applications. The hex drive profile and 6-point socket geometry maximize contact with fastener flats, reducing rounding under high-torque conditions. At 1-3/32 inches overall length, this socket fits in tighter spaces where longer impact sockets cannot reach. It is suited for automotive technicians, industrial mechanics, and maintenance professionals who require reliable fastener engagement on metric hardware.

This socket is designed for use with 3/8 inch drive impact tools including pneumatic and electric impact wrenches. The 14mm socket size covers a broad range of metric fasteners common in automotive, light truck, and equipment maintenance work. The compact overall length of 1-3/32 inches makes it a practical choice for underhood and panel work where clearance is limited. Typical install scenarios include suspension work, engine accessory service, and general equipment assembly.

Installation Notes

Install and remove with the impact tool powered down or air supply disconnected before attaching or swapping sockets. Confirm the socket is fully seated on the drive anvil and the retaining pin or ring is engaged before applying torque. Impact sockets are rated for impact tool use only and should not be substituted with chrome hand-tool sockets under impact loads. Inspect the socket for cracks or deformation before each use and remove from service if damage is found.
