Carlyle 3/8 Drive 10mm 6 Point Standard impact Socket (CIS3810M)

Description

Genuine Carlyle · Part no. CIS3810M

Carlyle's CIS3810M is a 10mm six-point impact socket in standard length for 3/8in drive. Made from chrome molybdenum alloy steel, it is built for air and cordless impact wrenches and fits a hand ratchet too. 10mm is one of the commonest bolt head sizes on a car, so it is a socket a 3/8in gun will use constantly.

Good to know

• Will the gun be too strong for 10mm bolts? It can be. Many 10mm bolts hold covers and plastic parts and need only light tightening, so run them in on the lowest setting and nip them up by hand.
• Can I use my chrome 10mm on the gun instead? Better not: chrome sockets are made for hand tools and can crack or shatter on an impact wrench, which is exactly what this one is for.
• Standard or deep impact? Standard length sits closer to the tool and is steadier; pick the deep one only when the nut is on a long stud or down in a recess.

Which one?

For nuts on studs, the Carlyle 3/8 Drive 10mm 6 Point Deep Impact Socket (CISD38010M) is the long version; to reach further with the gun, add the Carlyle 3/8 Drive 125mm Impact Extension (CIEXT3805).
