Impact Socket Gedore 6141140

The Impact Socket Gedore 6141140 is a heavy-duty, hand-operated impact socket manufactured from Gedore vanadium steel (31CrV3) with a polished, chrome-plated finish. Designed according to DIN 3124 and ISO 2725-1 standards, it features a square drive with ball retaining groove in line with DIN 3120 - C 12.5 / ISO 1174. With a depth of 80 mm, a height of 45 mm and a lightweight mass of 117 g, this impact socket combines a compact form with robust construction for repeated use under high torque conditions.

Advantages

The socket's vanadium steel construction provides high tensile strength and resistance to wear, while the polished chrome plating protects against corrosion and simplifies cleaning. A knurled grip facilitates secure manual handling and positioning. The square drive with ball retaining groove ensures reliable retention on the drive tool during use. Available in common metric sizes and equipped with a hole for a tommy bar, the design supports both power and manual operations in professional settings.

Suitable for

• Tightening and loosening high-torque fasteners in automotive repair
• Industrial maintenance where impact-rated sockets are required
• Mechanical workshops and service stations performing wheel and assembly work
• Field service tasks that demand durable, portable hand tools

How to use

Select the correct socket size to match the fastener head and fit it onto a compatible square-drive impact wrench or hand tool with the specified drive size. Ensure the ball retaining groove engages with the drive tool's detent to secure the socket. For manual operations, use the knurled grip for positioning and apply torque gradually. When using power tools, follow the torque settings recommended for the fastener and maintain steady control to avoid over-torquing. After use, clean and inspect the socket for wear or damage before storage.

Usage recommendations

Use the socket with tools and settings appropriate for impact-rated accessories, and avoid using with damaged or incompatible drive tools. Regularly inspect the contact surfaces and the tommy bar hole; replace the socket if any cracking, deformation, or excessive wear appears. Store in a dry environment to preserve the chrome plating and prevent corrosion.
