3/8" Drive x 8mm Deep Impact Socket - 12 Pt - Grey Pneumatic

The Grey Pneumatic 1108MD 3/8" Drive x 8mm Deep Impact Socket is designed to meet the rigorous demands of professional automotive and industrial applications. This 12-point deep impact socket provides secure engagement on 8mm fasteners, delivering the strength and extended reach necessary for high-torque tasks and accessing deeply recessed hardware. Its professional-grade construction ensures reliable performance in any demanding workshop environment.

Key Features

• Impact-Rated Alloy Steel Construction: Manufactured from high-strength alloy steel (often chrome molybdenum steel), this socket is engineered to withstand the repeated shock and rotational forces from pneumatic and cordless impact wrenches, ensuring long-term durability and resistance to cracking or deforming under stress.
• 12-Point Configuration: The 12-point design offers multiple engagement angles on 8mm fasteners, significantly reducing the risk of stripping or rounding, especially in confined spaces. This configuration also allows for easier alignment and seating on fasteners.
• Deep Well Design: This deep impact socket provides the critical reach required for deeply recessed nuts, fasteners mounted on longer studs, and components located within restrictive areas such as engine bays or suspension assemblies.
• Corrosion-Resistant Finish: A black oxide coating protects against rust, common chemical exposure in shop environments, and general wear, contributing to an extended service life and reducing glare.
• 3/8" Drive Compatibility: Designed for seamless integration with standard 3/8" drive impact wrenches, air ratchets, and breaker bars commonly used in professional service bays.

Applications

This deep impact socket is an essential tool for professional technicians working on vehicles utilizing 8mm metric hardware. It is frequently found on engine covers, various brackets, intake components, underhood accessories, and light suspension and chassis hardware. It is particularly useful on passenger cars, light trucks, and import vehicles where compact 8mm fasteners are prevalent. In industrial settings, the 1108MD is well-suited for assembly, equipment maintenance, and repair tasks involving 8mm metric bolts in machinery, fixtures, and tooling.
