Milwaukee Hex socket ShW 3/8 STD 17mm-1 Piece (4932480274)

Description

Genuine Milwaukee · Part no. 4932480274

Milwaukee's 4932480274 is a 17mm six-point impact socket, standard length, for 3/8in square drive, in SHOCKWAVE chrome-molybdenum. 17mm is the head of a DIN M10 bolt and one of the commonest car wheel nut sizes, and on 3/8in drive it is mainly for engine, mount and suspension bolts.

Good to know

• Should I use it on wheel nuts? It fits them, but 1/2in drive is the usual choice for wheels; whichever you use, finish to the car's torque figure with a torque wrench.
• Will it mark alloy wheels? It can, as the bare steel touches the wheel. A sleeved alloy wheel socket protects the finish.
• Is it all right on a long extension? Yes. Use an impact-rated extension with it on a gun, as a chrome extension can crack under the blows.

Which one?

For wheels a 1/2in socket suits better, such as the Milwaukee Hex socket ShW 1/2 STD 17mm (4932480311); the Carlyle 3/8 Drive 255mm Impact Extension (CIEXT3810) reaches mount bolts deep in the bay.
