Impact Socket 3/4" 26 mm (6-point) Makita RF-46526

Makita impact socket 3/4" 26 mm (6-point) RF-46526 is a heavy-duty socket designed for use with 3/4-inch drive impact wrenches, pneumatic and electric torque tools. The 26 mm size and six-point profile deliver direct contact with hex fasteners, reducing the risk of rounded corners and ensuring reliable torque transfer during tightening and loosening operations. Constructed for demanding environments, this socket is intended for repetitive fastening tasks in automotive repair, construction sites, and industrial maintenance.

Advantages

The six-point design provides secure engagement with hex nuts and bolts, minimizing slip and deformation of fastener edges. Manufactured to withstand high torque from impact tools, the socket offers durability under frequent use. A consistent internal profile ensures stable positioning on fasteners, improving safety and efficiency when working with power impact tools.

Suitable for

• Automotive wheel and suspension work requiring high-torque removal and installation of nuts and bolts
• Construction and assembly tasks involving heavy machinery and structural fasteners
• Industrial maintenance where repeated fastening and loosening operations are performed
• Pneumatic and electric impact wrench applications

Key specifications

• Drive size: 3/4-inch
• Socket size: 26 mm
• Point configuration: 6-point (hex)
• Intended use: impact tool compatible
• Material and finish: impact-rated alloy steel (heat-treated; corrosion-resistant finish)

How to use

Select the socket that matches the fastener size, ensuring the 26 mm six-point opening fully engages the nut or bolt head. Fit the socket onto a compatible 3/4-inch drive impact wrench or breaker bar and secure it to the tool’s drive. When using an impact wrench, apply controlled bursts of torque and maintain a firm grip on the tool to avoid sudden movements. Inspect the socket and fastener seating after each operation to confirm proper engagement and to avoid damaging the fastener or tool.

Usage recommendations

Use this socket exclusively with impact-rated tools and accessories. Avoid using it on hand ratchets or non-impact tools for high torque tasks, and replace the socket if any cracking, rounding, or significant wear is observed. Wear appropriate personal protective equipment when operating impact tools and follow tool manufacturer torque and safety guidelines.
