Proto J7450H Impact Socket 1/2 in Drive 1-9/16 in 6-pt

Product Description

The PROTO J7450H is a 6-point impact socket designed for heavy-duty fastener work in trade and industrial settings. Built from alloy steel and conforming to ASME B107.2 standards, it accepts a 1/2 inch square drive and fits a 1-9/16 inch hex fastener. The 6-point contact geometry concentrates force on the flats of the fastener rather than the corners, reducing rounding risk on stubborn or corroded hardware. At 2-1/4 inches overall length and 1.16 pounds, it is compact and well-balanced for use in tight service bays or mechanical rooms. This socket is covered by a limited lifetime warranty from PROTO.

This socket is suited for mechanical contractors, HVAC technicians, plumbers, electricians, and general maintenance professionals who need a reliable impact-rated socket for flanged connections, large hex bolts, and structural fasteners. It is appropriate for use in both residential and commercial service environments wherever a 1/2 inch impact driver or impact wrench is the tool of choice.

Installation Notes

This socket is intended for use with impact wrenches and impact drivers rated for 1/2 inch drive tooling. Always ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque. Power down or de-energize any associated equipment before performing fastener work on live systems. Inspect the socket for cracks or wear before each use and remove from service if damage is found.
