1-1/2" Drive x 42mm Deep - 12 Point Metric Impact Socket - Grey Pneumatic

Part #: 6242MD

The Grey Pneumatic 6242MD 1-1/2" Drive x 42mm Deep 12-Point Metric Impact Socket is purpose-built for the most demanding high-torque applications in commercial and industrial settings. While a technician might typically search for a "42mm socket 1/2'' drive" or "42mm socket 1/2 drive" for lighter duties, this robust socket features a 1-1/2" drive, essential for handling the immense forces required for large 42mm metric fasteners found on heavy equipment axles, suspensions, and drivetrain components. This heavy-duty tool ensures reliable engagement and optimal torque transfer in the toughest working conditions.

Key Features

  • Impact-Ready Chrome-Molybdenum Steel: Crafted from premium, heat-treated chrome-molybdenum alloy steel, this socket is designed to endure the immense forces of high-torque impact wrenches without deforming or cracking.
  • Efficient 12-Point Design: The 12-point configuration provides multiple engagement positions, facilitating quicker alignment and easier attachment to large metric fasteners, particularly in confined areas.
  • Deep Well Profile: Its deep length offers the necessary clearance for recessed nuts, long studs, and fasteners with protruding threads, enhancing versatility across complex assemblies.
  • Precision 42mm Fit: Accurately machined to a 42mm specification, this socket guarantees secure contact and optimal torque transfer, minimizing the risk of slippage and potential damage to fasteners.
  • Heavy-Duty 1-1/2" Drive: This substantial drive size is compatible with large impact wrenches and drivers, making it ideal for the high-torque demands common in fleet maintenance, heavy equipment repair, and demanding industrial applications.

Applications

  • Servicing wheel, hub, and suspension fasteners on heavy-duty trucks, buses, and trailers.
  • Maintenance and repair of construction and agricultural machinery utilizing 42mm metric hardware.
  • Industrial assembly and disassembly tasks involving large equipment, structural components, and flanged connections.
