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.
Socket Extension Sets
Keep common extension lengths on hand to reach a variety of spots—just attach them to your socket. Use with hand-drive tools only.
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.

Flexible Socket Extensions
Bend these socket extensions around obstructions to turn hard-to-reach fasteners. 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.

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.
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.
