Product details about the PROTO – J7176P Impact Socket Extension.
Impact socket extensions are essential tools in mechanical and automotive work, designed to extend the reach of impact sockets for use with powered impact wrenches. These extensions are constructed with heavy-duty materials, often featuring a robust steel build, to withstand the high torque generated by impact tools. The primary purpose of impact socket extensions is to provide access to hard-to-reach areas, allowing mechanics and technicians to efficiently tighten or loosen fasteners in various applications without compromising on durability or performance.
The PROTO – J7176P Impact Socket Extension is a standard socket extension with an output drive size of 3/8″. It uses SAE measurement type, making it suitable for applications that require this specific sizing. The input drive size is also 3/8 in, and both the input and output drives are square-shaped. This tool has been designed to accommodate a female square drive type on the input side and a male square on the output side.
Constructed from durable alloy steel, this impact socket extension is built to withstand high-impact operations. Its black oxide finish not only enhances its overall appearance but also adds an extra layer of protection against corrosion and wear. Although it’s not insulated or non-sparking, it does feature a locking mechanism for secure attachment during use.
This product adheres to ASME B107.110-2012 and SAE AS4984A standards, indicating its quality construction and performance capabilities. With four points of contact, it provides adequate grip while reducing slippage during operation.
With an overall length of 6 inches, this impact-rated socket extension offers ample reach for various tasks without compromising control or stability. Whether you’re working on small-scale projects or larger industrial jobs requiring SAE measurements, the PROTO – J7176P Impact Socket Extension can be a reliable addition to your toolbox.
