Socket Extensions

Attach these extensions to your socket for a longer reach. Use with hand-drive tools only.
Chrome-plated extensions have a smooth, shiny surface that resists corrosion and is easy to clean.
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.

Nonsparking Socket Extensions

Safely lengthen the reach of your socket while working near flammable vapors and combustible residue. These extensions are aluminum-bronze, so they meet OSHA standards for nonsparking tools. Use them with hand-drive tools only.
Warning: Do not use these extensions in direct contact with acetylene.

Secure-Hold Socket Extension Sets

Reach a variety of spots with the confidence that your extension won’t disengage. Also known as positive-locking extensions, these extensions hold sockets in place with a ball that only retracts when you pull the collar down. They lock to your socket more securely than other extensions. Use them only with hand-drive tools.
For technical drawings and 3-D models, click on a part number.
Flexible Socket Extension Sets

Bend these extensions to reach inconveniently located fasteners. These sets include multiple extension lengths, so you can find the right length to reach around obstructions. They’re best for light duty adjustments because they can’t apply as much torque as standard socket extensions. Use them with hand-drive tools only.

Wobble Socket Extensions


The male ends of these extensions are rounded, so they can pivot to use your tool at an angle. Use with hand-driven tools only.

Secure-Hold Socket Extensions

Lock your socket into these extensions to prevent accidental disengagement. Also known as positive-locking extensions, they have a ball that secures your socket and only retracts when you pull the collar back. This creates a stronger hold than standard extensions. Use them with hand-drive tools only.

Impact Socket Extensions

Attach to your socket for a longer reach. These extensions are made to withstand the high torque and force of impact tools.
3/4", 1", and 1 1/2" square drive size extensions require a locking retainer. Use 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.

Secure-Hold Impact Socket Extensions

Lock your socket into the extension to prevent accidental disengagement. Locked in place by a ball that retracts when the collar is pulled (also called positive locking), these sockets hold more securely than our standard extensions. These extensions are thicker than standard extensions, and also have enough give to flex under high force without breaking. This makes them a good choice for use with impact tools.

Impact Socket Extension Sets

Reach a variety of spots by keeping common extension lengths on hand. To withstand the high torque and force of impact tools without fracturing, these extensions are thicker and flex more than extensions for manual drivers.
3/4" and 1" square drive extensions require a retaining ring when used with impact tools that have a hole- or ring-and-hole style socket retainer. They work without a retaining ring when used with impact wrenches that have a pin-style socket retainer.

Secure-Hold Impact Socket Extension Sets

Also known as positive-locking extensions, these extensions hold sockets in place with a ball that only retracts when you pull the collar down. Designed to prevent accidental detachment, they lock to your socket more securely than other extensions. They’re thicker and less brittle than manual extensions, so they withstand the high torque and force of impact tools. They flex slightly when force is applied, so they’re less likely to break. Each set includes three common extension lengths to tackle a variety of jobs.

Continuous-Duty Socket Extensions

First developed for aerospace and automotive assembly processes, these extensions will stand up to your high-volume production and assembly lines. They're hardened to resist wear yet have enough flex to withstand the high torque and force of impact tools without cracking. Use them to lengthen the reach of your impact socket.
3/4" square drive extensions require a retaining ring when used with impact tools that have a hole- or ring-and-hole style socket retainer. They work without a retaining ring when used with impact wrenches that have a pin-style socket retainer.
