Impact deep socket 1" 25 mm (6-point) JCB

JCB impact deep socket 1" drive, 25 mm (6-point) is a heavy-duty socket designed for use with impact wrenches and air tools. The deep profile allows access to recessed nuts and bolts while the 6-point internal geometry provides full-face engagement on hex fasteners to minimise rounding and distribute torque across flats. Intended for professional and workshop environments, this socket is suitable where higher torque and repeated impact are required.

Advantages

This 1" drive, 25 mm deep impact socket is manufactured to withstand the stresses of impact tools and repeated use. The deep length improves reach for recessed fasteners and the 6-point design offers reliable grip on hex heads. It is compatible with impact wrenches and pneumatic tools, providing consistent torque transfer during demanding maintenance and repair tasks.

Suitable for

• Automotive repair and servicing where recessed nuts or studs require a deep socket.
• Industrial maintenance tasks involving high-torque fastening and loosening.
• Heavy equipment and agricultural machinery maintenance using impact wrenches.
• Workshop and professional mechanics’ tool kits that include 1" drive impact tools.

When it may not be suitable

This socket is designed specifically for impact use and heavy-duty applications; it is not ideal for precision torque-sensitive tasks where torque-limiting tools or calibration accuracy are required. It may be oversized for light-duty domestic jobs or for use with hand ratchets designed for smaller drive sizes.

Key specifications

• Drive size: 1 inch
• Socket size: 25 mm
• Point configuration: 6-point (hex)
• Type: Deep socket
• Intended use: Impact tools and pneumatic wrenches

How to use

Fit the socket onto the 1" drive of a compatible impact wrench or adapter. Ensure the socket is fully seated on the fastener before applying impact to reduce the risk of slipping. When loosening tight or rusted fasteners, apply steady, controlled bursts of the impact tool rather than continuous operation. After use, inspect the socket for wear or damage and store it in a tool case to protect the working faces.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm your impact wrench or adapter accepts a 1" drive.
• Verify that 25 mm is the correct size for the fasteners you will work with.
• Consider whether a 6-point configuration is preferable for your fasteners versus a 12-point option.
• Assess if a deep socket length is necessary for recessed or extended fasteners.

Usage recommendations

Use this JCB impact deep socket with properly rated impact tools and wear appropriate eye and hand protection. Replace the socket if signs of cracking, rounding, or severe wear appear; do not use damaged sockets with impact tools.
