What to check before you order

Drive size. It has to match your ratchet, torque wrench or impact tool. Adapters help, but they add length and flex.
Standard or deep. Deep sockets reach nuts on long studs and threaded rod. Standard depth fits where clearance is short.
Chrome vs impact. Chrome sockets are for hand tools only. Impact sockets are made to handle impact wrenches and are usually black.
Point count. 6-point grips better on worn heads. 12-point offers more positions in tight spaces.
Ratchet tooth count. A finer tooth count needs less swing to engage, which helps in cramped engine bays and equipment.

See all hand tools, add wrenches and hex keys, or pick up impact wrenches in drills and drivers.

Common questions

Can I use chrome sockets on an impact wrench?

No. Chrome sockets are not designed for impact loads. Use impact-rated sockets with impact tools.
