Sk 33314 Impact Socket 3/8 in Drive 6-point

Product Description

The SK 33314 is a 6-point impact socket designed for 3/8 inch drive impact wrenches and ratchets. With an overall length of 2-1/8 inches, it fits standard and tight-clearance fastener applications common in mechanical, automotive, and industrial service work. The 6-point geometry concentrates drive force on the flats of a fastener rather than the corners, reducing rounding and improving grip under high-torque impact conditions. At 0.22 pounds, it is a compact, lightweight tool suited for frequent use on production lines, service bays, or job-site utility work. Mechanics, millwrights, and industrial technicians are the primary users of this socket.

This socket is built for use with 3/8 inch drive impact tools in automotive repair, equipment maintenance, and general mechanical service environments. The universal style and 6-point configuration make it appropriate for both standard and metric fastener applications where a secure, high-torque fit is required. It is well-suited for residential and light commercial mechanical work where a mid-size drive socket is a routine part of the toolkit.

Key Features

• 6-point design drives on fastener flats, reducing corner rounding under impact loads
• 3/8 inch drive compatibility works with common impact wrenches and ratchets
• 2-1/8 inch overall length suits standard and moderate-clearance fastener access
• Lightweight at 0.22 pounds for reduced hand fatigue during repetitive use
• Universal style fits a broad range of fastener applications

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit socket for 3/8 inch drive impact wrenches, air ratchets, and hand ratchets used in automotive, industrial, and general mechanical service applications.

Installation Notes

Install and remove this socket with the drive tool powered down or the air supply disconnected before changing attachments. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the drive anvil and the retaining ring or pin is engaged before applying torque. Do not use impact sockets as substitutes for hand-tool sockets on torque wrenches, as impact-rated sockets are engineered for dynamic loads, not calibrated torque applications. Inspect for cracks or deformation before each use and replace any socket showing visible wear or damage.
