3/8" Dr. 11/16" Impact Swivel Socket - Genius Tools

The Genius Tools 380027 3/8" Dr. 11/16" Impact Swivel Socket provides professional technicians with reliable access and consistent torque in challenging, obstructed work areas. Engineered for use with pneumatic or cordless impact wrenches, this professional-grade tool integrates an impact-rated body with a universal-joint style swivel to effectively reach fasteners inaccessible to standard sockets, making it an essential addition to any mechanic's toolkit for automotive and industrial applications.

Key Features

• Versatile 3/8" Drive, 11/16" Hex: This common size is ideal for critical suspension, steering, and chassis fasteners found on domestic cars, SUVs, and light trucks.
• Integrated Swivel Design: The universal-joint head delivers controlled articulation, allowing technicians to navigate around crossmembers, frames, exhaust components, and brackets.
• Impact-Rated Durability: Constructed to withstand the high-torque demands and repetitive use of professional impact tools, ensuring longevity and consistent performance.
• Optimized Fastener Engagement: A precision-machined hex profile minimizes slippage and rounding, even on corroded or stubborn hardware.
• Corrosion-Resistant Finish: A robust coating protects against corrosion from shop environments, chemicals, and daily rigorous use.
• Professional-Grade Construction: Built to meet the stringent demands of automotive, fleet, industrial, and heavy equipment maintenance, where tool reliability is paramount for professional mechanics.

Applications

The 380027 3/8" drive 11/16" impact swivel socket excels in scenarios where straight-on access is limited, such as working on upper and lower control arms, sway bar links, shock mounts, and various exhaust fasteners. It is highly effective for tasks in confined engine bays and undercar service on domestic vehicles, light- to medium-duty trucks, and fleet maintenance. For industrial and heavy equipment applications, the swivel head facilitates reaching recessed or obstructed bolts on frames, housings, and structural assemblies, reducing the need for multiple tool changes and extensions at awkward angles for professional technicians.
