Impact Hex Socket 3/4" Short 27 mm AWTools (AW38809BL) Black Line

AWTools Impact Hex Socket 3/4" Short 27 mm is a compact, heavy-duty socket designed for use with impact wrenches and powered drivers. The short length provides access in confined spaces while the hex internal profile fits 3/4" (27 mm) hex fasteners used in automotive, industrial maintenance and construction applications. The Black Line finish improves corrosion resistance and allows quick visual identification among tool sets.

Advantages

The short impact socket is engineered to withstand high torque values typical of pneumatic and electric impact tools while minimising the chance of rounding fastener edges. Its durable Black Line surface treatment reduces wear and protects against rust in workshop environments. The compact form factor improves access in tight assemblies and lowers the risk of interference with nearby components during fastening operations.

Suitable for

• Automotive repair and wheel or axle fastener work
• Industrial maintenance and plant equipment servicing
• Construction and assembly tasks where space is limited
• Use with pneumatic and electric impact wrenches and drivers

Key specifications

• Drive type: impact socket for 3/4" drive (compatible with standard 3/4" impact tools)
• Socket profile: hex (6-point) for 27 mm fasteners
• Length: short/compact design for restricted access
• Material: high-strength alloy steel suitable for impact use
• Finish: Black Line protective coating for corrosion resistance
• Intended use: high-torque fastening and loosening with impact tools

How to use

Select the AWTools short impact hex socket matching the 27 mm hex fastener. Attach the socket securely to a compatible 3/4" drive impact wrench or driver. Ensure the tool and socket are rated for the torque required by the application and that the fastener and surrounding components are correctly positioned. When operating, apply controlled bursts with the impact tool to avoid over-torquing; inspect the socket regularly for signs of wear or damage and replace if deformation or cracking is observed.

Usage recommendations

For safe and effective performance, use the socket only with impact-rated tools and accessories. Do not use impact sockets with hand ratchets or cheater bars for which they were not designed. Keep the socket clean and lightly lubricated if exposed to corrosive conditions; inspect before each use and replace if worn, cracked or damaged.
