Carlyle 3/8 Drive 11mm 6 Point Standard Impact Socket (CIS3811M)

Description

Genuine Carlyle · Part no. CIS3811M

This Carlyle CIS3811M is an 11mm standard-length impact socket with a 3/8in drive and six-point opening. It is made from chrome molybdenum alloy steel for air and cordless impact wrenches, with a radius-corner opening and chamfered openings that help it go onto the nut and the tool quickly.

Good to know

• Why use an impact socket rather than chrome? Impact sockets are made from tougher, less brittle steel to take repeated hammer blows; chrome ones can crack or shatter on an impact gun.
• How should I look after it? Check now and then for cracks around the opening and a worn drive square; a cracked impact socket should be replaced, not used again.
• Can I tighten nuts fully with the gun? For fixings with a set torque, run them on with the gun and finish with a torque wrench, so you don't overtighten or stretch the bolt.

Which one?

For 11mm nuts on long studs, use the Carlyle 3/8 Dive 11mm 6 Point Deep Impact Socket (CISD38011M); for hand-only work, the Carlyle 3/8 Drive 11mm 6 Point Chrome Socket (CS38011M) is lighter.
