Genuine Carlyle · Part no. CIEXT1210

Carlyle's CIEXT1210 is a 255mm long 1/2in drive impact extension in chrome molybdenum steel with a black phosphate finish. Fitted between an impact gun and a socket, it reaches bolts set deep in the car, such as subframe and suspension mountings tucked behind other parts, where a short bar would leave the gun hard up against the bodywork.

Good to know

Will a long extension slow the gun down? It can: the extra length takes up some of the hammer blows, so a tight bolt may need a few more seconds than it would on a short bar. Use the shortest length that reaches.
How do I keep it running true? Support the gun so the extension stays in line with the bolt; working at an angle loads the drive square and can tip the socket off and round the head.
Can I use it with a ratchet as well? Yes, an impact extension works by hand too, but the reverse isn't true: keep chrome extensions and sockets off the impact gun because they can crack or shatter.
Is 1/2in the right size for my job? 1/2in drive suits wheels and suspension on cars; for lorries and plant you need 3/4in or 1in drive tools.

Which one?

For work where reach isn't needed, the Carlyle 1/2 Drive 125mm Impact Extension (CIEXT1205) keeps the gun closer; for longer reach still, the Carlyle 1/2 Drive 380mm Impact Extension (CIEXT1215) is 380mm.
