Socket set 1/2" impact 16 pcs (hex) JCB IF-4179-5MPB 8–27 mm

JCB 16-piece impact socket set with a 1/2" drive provides a complete range of hexagonal impact sockets from 8 mm to 27 mm. These sockets are made for use with impact wrenches and compatible pneumatic or electric tools, covering common metric bolt and nut sizes encountered in automotive repair, construction, and maintenance work. The set is intended for high-torque fastening and loosening where impact-rated durability is required.

Advantages

The sockets are impact-rated and manufactured to withstand repeated high-torque applications, reducing the risk of cracking or deformation under load. A 1/2" drive offers compatibility with a wide range of impact wrenches and extensions, while the hex profile ensures a secure fit on standard bolts and nuts. The set format provides a convenient selection of sizes so users can quickly match the correct socket to the fastener without searching for individual pieces.

Suitable for

• Automotive repair and wheel fastening tasks
• Construction site fastening and equipment maintenance
• Industrial maintenance and assembly where impact tools are used
• General mechanical and repair work requiring metric hex sockets

Key specifications

• Drive size: 1/2" compatible with impact wrenches
• Socket type: hexagonal (6-point) impact sockets
• Quantity: 16 pieces covering sizes 8 mm to 27 mm
• Material and finish: impact-rated construction suitable for high-torque use

How to use

Select the socket that matches the fastener size, mount it securely on the 1/2" drive of the impact wrench or adapter, and engage the tool following the manufacturer's safety and operating instructions. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying torque. For removal tasks, start at low torque to ensure correct engagement, then increase as needed. Inspect sockets for damage or wear before use and replace any that show cracking, rounding, or other defects.

Usage recommendations

Use impact-rated sockets only with impact-rated tools and accessories. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment, such as eye and hand protection, and follow tool manufacturer guidelines for torque limits and operating procedures. Store sockets in a dry, organized case to prevent corrosion and to keep sizes readily accessible.
