Williams Comfort Products JHW17-6172 Deep Impact Socket

Product Description

The WILLIAMS COMFORT PRODUCTS JHW17-6172 is a deep impact socket built for heavy-duty fastener work in trade and industrial applications. It features a 1-inch drive and measures 8 inches overall length with a 5 3/8-inch socket size in SAE specification. The lobular opening geometry is engineered to maximize torque transfer on 6-point fasteners while reducing the risk of rounding or deforming the fastener head. Specially heat-treated steel construction is designed to withstand the repeated shock loads generated by pneumatic and electric impact wrenches, delivering consistent performance over a long service life.

This socket is suited for applications where standard sockets would fail under high-torque impact use. Typical scenarios include heavy equipment maintenance, structural assembly, fleet service, and industrial machinery repair. The 1-inch drive size targets professional-grade impact wrenches used in commercial and industrial settings. Licensed mechanics, millwrights, pipefitters, and other skilled tradespeople working with large-diameter fasteners will find this socket appropriate for demanding production and maintenance environments.

Key Features

• SUPERTORQUE lobular openings increase turning power without deforming fastener heads
• Designed for maximum engagement on 6-point fasteners
• Compatible with pneumatic and electric impact wrenches
• Specially heat-treated for impact use, providing long service life and safety
• Deep socket profile accommodates extended fasteners and recessed bolt applications
• SAE specification for standard imperial fastener sizing

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement and standard-fit deep impact socket for 1-inch drive pneumatic and electric impact wrenches requiring SAE sizing.

Installation Notes

This socket is intended for use by qualified tradespeople and mechanics familiar with impact wrench operation and proper fastener torque procedures. Always confirm the drive size and fastener size match before applying torque. Inspect the socket for cracks or deformation before each use, and remove from service if damage is found. Do not use impact sockets with standard ratchets or torque wrenches, as the socket metallurgy is optimized for impact loads only.
