Socket set AWTools AW38645BL

The Socket set AWTools AW38645BL is an 11-piece impact-compatible socket kit designed for professional and DIY fastening tasks. Constructed from hardened CrMo steel with a black oxide finish, the set balances strength and corrosion resistance while the rounded head profile reduces the risk of further damaging worn fasteners. High-visibility stamped size markings and a longer socket design improve identification and access in confined or hard-to-reach areas. The set is supplied in a metal case for secure storage and transport and is suitable for use with pneumatic, electric and cordless impact wrenches.

Advantages

The hardened CrMo steel construction with black oxide finish provides durability and basic corrosion protection while maintaining toughness under repeated impact. Rounded head profiles help extract damaged or partially rounded screws and nuts without further deforming the fastener. Long sockets increase reach into recessed fittings and tight engine bays, and clear stamped size markings speed up tool selection. The metal case organizes the 11 pieces and protects them during storage and transport.

Suitable for

• Automotive repair and maintenance
• Machinery and industrial equipment servicing

How to use

Select the socket size that matches the fastener and fit it onto the drive of a compatible impact wrench or hand tool. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque to reduce slipping and rounding. When working with damaged or rounded fasteners, use the rounded head profile to engage the remaining metal surface and apply steady torque. After use, clean any debris or oil from the sockets and return them to the metal case to protect the finish and keep sizes organized.

Usage recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment and follow the impact wrench manufacturer's torque guidelines. For severely damaged fasteners, consider gradual application of torque and use penetrating lubricant if needed. Store the socket set dry in the metal case to maintain the black oxide finish and prevent corrosion.
