    Continuous-Duty Fastener-Holding 6-Point Sockets

    A magnet holds the fastener securely enough to drive self-tapping screws. These sockets are designed to tolerate continuous use with power tools and impact tools in high-volume production and assembly. They’re hardened to resist cracking and wear from repeated use, so they’ll last longer than standard impact sockets. The hex shape achieves the best possible grip on hex fasteners to prevent rounding their points.

    Impact Magnetic Square Drive Size Adapters

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Socket Adapters. Impact Magnetic Square Drive Size Adapters.
    A magnet holds the socket, making changes quicker. These adapters convert from one square-drive size to another. They’re sturdier and have more give than manual-drive adapters, so they'll withstand the high torque and force of impact tools.
    3/4" Square Drive—Adapter with 3/4" square drive requires a retaining ring on the female end for attachment to tools that have a hole- or hole-and-ring style socket retainer.
