Carlyle 3/8 Drive 15mm 6 Point Deep Impact Socket (CISD38015M)

Description

Genuine Carlyle · Part no. CISD38015M

Carlyle's CISD38015M is a 15mm deep impact socket for 3/8in drive with a six-point opening, made from chrome molybdenum alloy steel. It goes on a 3/8in air or cordless impact wrench to reach 15mm nuts on studs and in recesses, and works on a hand ratchet or breaker bar too.

Good to know

• Why a deep impact socket rather than an extension? A deep socket adds reach without an extra joint, so less of the gun's hammering is lost and there is less wobble than with a long extension.
• How do I avoid overtightening with the gun? Run the nut on at low power and finish with a torque wrench to the figure in the manual, especially on anything that holds brakes or suspension.
• When is it time to replace an impact socket? When you see a crack at the opening or the drive square has rounded; a damaged impact socket can split under load.

Which one?

For hand-only work, the Carlyle 3/8 Drive 15mm Deep Chrome Socket (CSD38015M) is lighter; for more reach on the gun, the Carlyle 3/8 Drive 255mm Impact Extension (CIEXT3810).
