    Attach these extensions to your socket for a longer reach. Use with hand-drive tools only.
    Chrome-Plated Steel—Chrome-plated extensions have a smooth, shiny surface that resists corrosion and is easy to clean.
    Black-Oxide Steel—Black-oxide extensions aren’t as smooth as chrome-plated extensions, so they’re easier to grip when dirty or wet. Oil them periodically to maintain their corrosion resistance.

    The short bit on these sockets fits in spaces where height clearance is limited. These sockets are sturdier and have more give than manual-drive sockets, so they'll withstand the high torque and force of impact tools.
    Compatible Retaining Ring ID—Sockets that list a compatible retaining ring ID require a locking retainer. Use it with an impact wrench that has a pin-style socket retainer, or use a socket retaining ring with tools that have a hole- or hole-and-ring style socket retainer.
