The Grey Pneumatic 1117MSD is a robust 3/8" drive, 17mm semi-deep, 12-point impact socket engineered for the demanding environments of professional automotive and industrial service. Designed for everyday use, its precise reach for recessed fasteners, combined with a compact profile, ensures efficient access in challenging work areas, making it a reliable addition for mechanics and technicians.

Key Features

3/8" Drive Compatibility: Integrates seamlessly with standard 3/8" drive impact wrenches, ratchets, and extensions, providing versatile utility in professional workshops.
17mm Semi-Deep Profile: Offers an optimal balance of extended reach for recessed hardware and a compact length, allowing effective fastener engagement without the bulk of a full deep socket. This design is ideal when a standard socket is too short and a deep socket is too long.
12-Point Design: Facilitates quick and easy indexing on hex fasteners with multiple engagement points, enhancing efficiency in tight or limited-swing applications. The multiple contact points allow for easier alignment in awkward positions.
Professional-Grade Durability: Constructed by Grey Pneumatic from high-quality chrome-molybdenum steel for consistent strength and long-term performance in high-impact and high-torque applications. Grey Pneumatic tools are heat-treated for strength and durability, and carry a Lifetime Warranty.
Optimized Fastener Contact: Engineered geometry distributes load across the fastener head, effectively minimizing the risk of rounding and extending the lifespan of both the socket and hardware.

Applications

This versatile 17mm socket is suitable for a broad range of fasteners on both domestic and import vehicles, including common suspension components, brake caliper brackets, engine accessory mounts, and various underbody hardware. The semi-deep design proves particularly beneficial for tasks such as servicing strut mounts, various bracket assemblies, and drivetrain or chassis locations where studs extend beyond the nut. Beyond automotive repair, it is also effective for industrial maintenance, equipment assembly, and general mechanical repair requiring a durable 3/8" drive 17mm socket.
