The Jet 687213 1/2″ Drive x 3/8″ Hex Impact Bit Socket is built for high-torque fastening applications where standard hand sockets are not enough. Designed for use with impact wrenches, this hex bit socket delivers reliable strength and consistent performance in automotive, industrial, and equipment maintenance settings. The 3/8″ hex bit size provides accurate engagement with SAE hex fasteners, helping reduce rounding and fastener damage during demanding work.
Manufactured from SNCM8660 tool steel, this impact socket offers 20% greater torsional resistance than traditional chrome molybdenum (CrMo) bits. This increased strength allows it to withstand repeated impact cycles without twisting or cracking. Its impact-rated construction makes it well suited for daily professional use in shops, on jobsites, or in maintenance departments where durability and torque control are critical. Built for technicians, mechanics, and contractors, the Jet 687213 delivers dependable results when working with stubborn or high-load fasteners.
