Proto J7329M Impact Socket 1/2 in Drive 29mm 6-point

Product Description

The PROTO J7329M is a 6-point impact socket designed for heavy-duty fastening and removal tasks in professional trade and industrial environments. Built for use with 1/2 inch drive impact wrenches, this socket fits 29mm hex fasteners and measures 3.5 inches in overall length. The 6-point contact geometry distributes torque evenly across fastener flats, reducing the risk of rounding under high-output impact conditions. At 1.16 pounds, the J7329M is sized for demanding applications where durability and precise fit matter. It is suited for mechanics, millwrights, fleet technicians, and other trades working with metric fasteners in high-torque situations.

This socket is used wherever 1/2 inch drive impact tools are employed on 29mm metric fasteners. Typical applications include automotive service, heavy equipment maintenance, structural assembly, and industrial machinery work. The 3.5 inch overall length provides clearance for recessed fasteners while keeping the socket manageable in tight spaces. It is sold as a single unit, making it a practical replacement or addition to an existing impact socket set.

Key Features

• 1/2 inch drive fits standard 1/2 inch impact wrenches and ratchets
• 29mm socket size for metric hex fasteners
• 6-point drive style reduces fastener rounding under impact torque
• 3.5 inch overall length provides reach for recessed fastener applications
• Rated for impact use, not just hand-tool torque

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct addition for 1/2 inch drive impact socket sets requiring 29mm metric hex coverage.

Installation Notes

Install and remove this socket using a 1/2 inch drive impact wrench or ratchet rated for the fastener torque required. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque to prevent slippage or fastener damage. Always de-energize or lock out equipment before accessing fasteners on powered machinery. Impact sockets are not interchangeable with chrome hand-tool sockets under sustained impact loads.
